A path into the holy mountain Elehura leads to this strange monochromatic place. It is home to the divine dragon Tatyakori, and according to them, this place is also the source of the water that covers the living world. In the deep past, Tatyakori found their way from a dry planet of rock and dust into the Unliving Place. They awoken something within the triangular tower at the center, causing water to begin pouring from various fountains. Over millions of years, this river’s output transformed the world outside into a vibrant living one.
The material that the Unliving Place is composed of is naturally indestructible, requiring powerful magic to quarry and reshape. The difficulty did not deter the dragon’s creative spirit, and over time they made alterations in the Unliving Place to record various events and ideas.
Two major additions are memorials to the events of Sheshai the Purifier (seen in the previous post) and of the ancient individuals Pagol of the gwil and Muchi of the pritar. The picture above is of that latter memorial. The bridge represents the crucial alliance that formed between the gwil and pritar people, which started with these two individuals. The two were also early masters of healing and elemental magic.
