[Location] Shrine to Zulrav

[Creeper]

Located high above on the Petal of the Whispering Zephyr, the Shrine of Zulrav stands tall and proud against the elements as it overlooks the Spires. Dedicated to the God of Wind and Storms, the shrine is an open air tree house, allowing the visitor to feel the wind caress their skin and hear the voice of Zulrav speak to his beloved. Accessible only by bridge, from the weather prediction center, the Shrine stands higher than all the other petals, providing visitors an excellent view of The Spires as they meditate and commune with the wind. The Shrine was one of the very few places that was not damaged by the Djed Storm of 512 AV, and many believe that it was saved because of the care taker, a Stormwarden who had control over the winds to keep most of the Wild Djed away. Others believe that it was an act of Zulrav himself in an attempt to keep his sacred place from being destroyed by the Wild Djed. Either way, residents are still able to enjoy the Shrine, many coming just to see the Stormwarden manipulate the air around them, especially the young children. If one passes the Shrine, they are most likely to hear the laughter of young children, tickled by the gentle winds that are conjured by the amused caretaker. Others come to offer homage to Zulrav and study the natural weather patterns of The Spires.   Skye Name: Skye Whitewind Race: Male Drykas DoB: 53rd Spring, 485 AV, 27 PoB: Cyphrus, the Diamond Clan Skills: 82 Unarmed Combat, 74 Boxing, 55 Horsemanship, 43 Teaching, 27 Storytelling Title: Master of the Winds History: A twice marked Stormwarden and born into the Diamond Clan, Skye was brought up traditionally to master a form of combat, boxing seeming to be his calling. Skye grew quickly to master this art, earning him the notice of Zulrav for his dedication to the art of combat, not only once but twice. Now with the power to control the wind at his beck and call, Skye began to use that to his advantage, incorporating the wind in his attacks to throw off his opponents. This earned him the respect of many throughout the clans, claiming him to be a dangerous man, capable of destruction without the use of weapons. However his life was soon to be turned upside down. A terrible accident occurred one day with a pack of Glassbeaks, his family killed before the birds were brought down. The destruction had already taken place though, his family was gone and he was left behind to carry out his family name. Bitterness soon rested in his heart and he left the clans, searching for something to fill the void that had been placed in his heart. His search soon led him to The Spires before the Djed Storm, the Jamoura's gentle ways and teachings seemed to give him a bit of peace, and he soon found the Shrine. The Shrine soon became his permanent residence, a place where he could be with his god and where the wind would soothe his heart. The Spires' residents often know when Skye is happy, for all enjoy a cool breeze on those days as he graces them all with his gift.   Training Skye often can be seen giving classes to those that wish to learn more about unarmed combat or boxing, most of those being children who wish to see "Mista Skye and his magic wind!" Training Offered: Unarmed Combat Boxing He also instructs people on the teachings of Zulrav, reading and listening to the winds.
