The Golden Altar

event Events (all zones)

This is one of the most popular altars to show devotion to the Great Bird. In this particular one, its followers celebrate it's opulence and magnanimity, wishing that their gold offering will make them earn the Great Bird's favor. The altar consists of a golden statue of the Great Bird surrounded by a lot of gold in different shapes, offered as tribute. A young snake moves shamelessly around the pile of coins and gold, looking with curiosity at the pilgrims. There are some guards watching over the place, but as nobody dares steal the gold intended for the Great Bird, they look quite bored. Will you do anything at this place?

★ XP 32,💰 Gold 200,

You recall the words of the pilgrims you met shortly after arriving at the temple and follow their advice. It turns out they were right, near the statue there is a pile of coins smaller than the others. Bearing in mind what the pilgrims told you, you focus on that for a while and see how some pilgrims leave their coins there and other pilgrims grab coins from that. It looks like a charity pile. That's quite convenient for your and you decide to grab some coins, leaving that gold pile almost at zero. It seems the snake admired your clever move, and decides to follow you. At least with you around, it won't have time to get bored! • You get Gold 200, XP 32, and the Young Ruby Snake.
