Temple of Gaea

The Temple has the porch in front that opens into the Prayer Hall. It is goes from the door opening to the other end of the building. At the opposite end of the hall is a large oaken tree with a colourfull mosaic as backdrop. The hall has no flooring, just grass. At the sides of the hall are arched openings all the way, opening into smaller rooms. To the west are a room filled with religious texts, and to the east are the sacrificial tables where people lay their sacrifices to Gaea. From the eastern wing it is also possible to enter into the grounds behind the temple. The roof inside the temple is arched (gothical).   The infermary can be entered from the north and has a simple wooden door carved with vines. It opens up into a small waiting room, from which one can go up to the upper floors where the invalid are placed, into a small office where the Infermary Matron sits, or into the back where those in service of Gaea lives.

The walls surrounding the temple are made of interwoven oak branches, with living oak trees as poles at the corners, from which the branches appears to originate. The Temple walls are made of wooden trunks, and the windows and ceiling of interwoven branches. The entrance to the temple is a small porch with a large wooden door carved with a pattern of vines. The grounds have several small oak trees and wild meadowy grass. The infermary and the gazebo are made in a similar way.  

The Temple

When stepping through the front door of the temple, one steps into a field of grass. Light passes through the branches that are the ceiling, and from the large mosaic window pointing to the north. The mosaics of the window are a colorful visualisation of the Tree of Creation when it was much smaller than now. To both sides of the room are alcoves with robust floorboards. The left side has a small library with religious texts, as well as a few tables and chairs to sit at. The alcove to the right has a reflection area with a large alter at which worshippers can leave offerings. At the right alcove there is also a door that goes to the Temple Grounds.   

Temple Grounds

An area with a meadowy grass filled with wildflowers and a few smaller oak trees. From here there is a great view to the Tree of Creation.   A small gazebo stand on the grounds. It is made of the same wood as the rest of the temple buildings, but has a delicate clearly elven design.  

The Infermary

The infermary is a 2 story building. Entering from the street to the north, the building opens up into a small waiting room with a reception behind which there is a door that leads to the office of the office of the cleric in charge. To the left of the reception is a staircase that leads upstairs to the infermary, and next to the staircase is a door that leads to the sleeping quarters of the Children, from which entrance to the Temple Grounds can be accessed.
