The Great Abbey
The Heartlands
Can be home to characters.
The Great Abbey has large towers at its corners, but the body of it is long and relatively simple. Beneath that simplicity lies a plaza with a massive loom.
Five figures kneel around the loom, made of a stone no one has ever been able to identify. Large symbols (also stone) float where their heads would be - at the head of the loom, the crescent moon. On one side, a round ball with a flower growing from it and a cyclone. On the other side, a wave and fire.
At the foot of the loom are a pair of deep imprints, similar in size to the measurements of the figures' calves.
Many faithful Artisans, Sculptors, and Crafters visit the Great Abbey each year to see these figures - whom they call the Patrons - in person, and to pay their respects to the Great Loom they believe all saura passes through when entering Maquette.
