Obelisk of the Sun
- First visit: 4 Eleasis 2993
In the middle of a square about 50ft by 50ft. The obelisk is made of granite, with a square base 10ft by 10ft. It is covered with inscriptions and images, including depictions of The Twelve (original gods of old Arcontos) and the names of the first 327 emperors. Below 8ft there are depictions of humans and lizards, humans riding lizards, humans putting other creatures to the sword. Above 8ft there are only depictions of the sun. On the south face of the obelisk, about 5ft above ground, there is a clear stripe save for a deeply incised ankh that looks like a place to insert an actual ankh, and a quote:
“The Beacon shall be revealed to those who bring midday Life to the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars.”
Zushekt is convinced “the sun“ referred to in the inscription above the incised ankh refers to this obelisk, ultimately meaning there must be two other obelisks with moon and star motifs respectively, in Arden Vul. (6 Highsun)
