This is a chapel that worships the God of Nature, Velun. Brother Sanders runs this chapel and will offer the Champion various services of healing and training.

Description

Exterior:

West of the town square stands a towering stone church, its black spires reaching up far above anything else in the village. A pair of stone gargoyles peer over the terrace, staring down across the sweeping stone steps leading up to the temple's heavy wooden doors. A faint light shines from the windows: the cumulative effort of hundreds of candles, no doubt.

Interior:

The inside of the chapel is the same bleak stone you imagine most churches to be made of, grey and weighing down on everyone inside. Vaulted arches support a roof high above you, decorated with beautiful bits of gilding and time-worn painting. The walls are draped with cloth and surrounded by candles, giving some measure of warmth to the otherwise stark place of worship.

Several semi-circular wooden pews are arranged facing a central altar in the middle of the temple, a large stone circle arrayed with statues of the seven gods and goddesses of Savarra. Each holds a colored candle, and stares beatifically across the pews. Brother Sanders is at his usual place beside the altar, white robes wrapped tight around himself and lost in contemplation of his tremendous prayer-book.

Characters

• Brother Sanders - available from 6:00 - 17:59
• Eryka - if the Champion had helped her in the Old Forest
• Shar - can sometimes be encountered in the Cloister if completed Ugly Duckling and Getting Into The Closet

Interactions

If the Champion has completed Getting Into The Closet, the new Cloister is available to allow the seclusion of the mind and soul. Using the cloister will require a Winterstem and 500 EC. It will lower the Corruption of the Champion, however, it will take 3 days, and the amount of corruption loss depends on the level of corruption the Champion has:

Corruption Level	Loss
0 - 24 (Pure)	-20
25 - 74 (Tainted)	-10
75 - 99 (Corrupted)	-10

If the Champion has completed Ugly Duckling and Getting Into The Closet, they will find that Shar has been acting as a helper for Brother Sanders in exchange for being able to sit in the pews right in front of the goddess Sorra and daydream. When using the cloister during the day, there is a 50% chance for the Champion to interact with Shar before they use the cloister (And doing so reduces corruption by 1). Cait and Etheryn can join you in the cloister if you have them in your party.
