Broken Light Temple

Statistics

Eerie, Overgrown, Infested, Haunted

The Broken Light Temple stands as a solemn echo of Meridia’s radiance, its once-golden halls now fractured and dim. Once a beacon of cleansing light and divine purpose, it now lies shrouded in gloom, its crystal spires dulled and its sanctuaries overrun by creeping vines and corrupted beasts. The wards that once shimmered with holy protection sputter weakly, their power drained by time or something far darker.
Now, a different kind of devotion festers. The Purified, a congregation of silent devotees, labor endlessly among the ruins. Cloaked in ritual and secrecy, they restore the temple not to its former glory, but to some warped reflection of it.

Those who pass through the broken gates speak of whispers in the dark, of light that bends the wrong way, and of eyes that glow faintly behind fractured masks. Whether the Purified still serve Meridia or another power entirely remains a question best left unanswered.

Designer's Note.

This was my very first encounter project. It is also where I realized I loved the role. Creating stories with simple scenes was something I never knew I'd love. I became more excited and determined to improve as a designer. Personally I love animals as well, so being able to work with posing them was a blast. I felt like I could see the vision for the area, and then bring it to life.
