This discreet and little-noticed door is nevertheless the entrance to a place of devotion and Sacrifice. It is marked with two crossed shinbones, a symbol of the Temple of the Skull, and pierced with a single small opening 2.50 m from the ground. text/html 2024-10-28T08:00:54+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://wiki.laelith.martinou.net/en/laelith/lakeshoe/159.3.0?rev=1730102454&do=diff Old Ages Gate The Old Ages Gate is an iconic structure of The Lakeshoe, the lowest and most lively Terrace of Laelith.
