Calise points ahead to where the path lets out onto a stretch of even ground, maybe twenty feet across, dominated by a pair of enormous marble statues that stand proudly on either side of a vaulted door. One statue depicts the nude, slender figure of Sorra, her feathered wings outstretched and spear held high; the other, the curvaceous body of the human deity Tira, wearing little besides funerary wrappings and a robe, and presenting a headsman's axe. Their weapons touch at the tips, and from that point hangs a single copper lantern lit with a flickering green flame.

The Grave of Saints is a tomb on the mountain peaks. It is dedicated to Persenne, a minotaur shamaness who pledged herself to Tira to save her people from a plague. Calise believes they hold the Ring of Fate, a relic that could be used to defend against corruption.

Points of Interest

Blessed Door

---

The Tiran graves end at a vaulted door to the east, currently sealed tightly. The door depicts Tira once again, painted larger than life and exaggerated to cowgirl-like proportions. The goddess has her headsman's axe in one hand, and the other is holding a lantern aloft, just like the one you saw hanging above the Grave of Saints' entrance. You can see a small indentation in the door beneath the painted lantern, barely bigger than your thumb.

---

To the north, the way is blocked by a sealed door. You need the Jade Teardrop to reach the alcove within, where you can find the Ring of Fate.

• Open: Try opening the door anyway.
• Place Teardrop: The jade teardrop stone you acquired seems a perfect fit for the door. (requires Jade Teardrop)

Once you've collected the ring and dealt with Vacia & Bruno, you can Take Teardrop, which will upgrade your Ring of Fate if you have it equipped.

Robbed Tomb

---

This might be a noble family's mausoleum, but the bodies have been thoroughly defiled, their skeletons shattered to the floor and scattered by the demons searching for booty.

---

Heading down the south path, you encounter the Tomb Raiders searching for loot. Once they've been dealt with, you can choose what to do with what they left behind.

• Take Lucre: Bag up all the gold and jewels the demons had taken; there's a small fortune in grave goods ripe for pillaging. (+2 corruption, +2,000 EC)
• Respect Dead: Return the skeletons to their rightful alcoves along with their grave goods.

Patriarch's Grave

---

There is a tremendous mausoleum at the end of the southern hall. Once it might have been secured by a pair of heavy bronze-faced doors, but they've been cracked open and left hanging in splinters off the hinges. A huge mural dominates all the walls within, displaying a primitive minotaur king in fur-lined hides and a golden belt, breastplate, and crown lifting up a tremendous labrys over his head. The king's face is obscured by a strange, bearded mask wrought in a perpetual grimace, with a mob of curly copper hair.

---

Once you reach the fork on the south path, taking the lower route leads you to a gem puzzle which you can solve to collect the Patrician Mask.

Cleric's Grave

---

A lone grave sits in the final chamber on this long passage, humble in its own adornment but surrounded by a mural that depicts the goddesses Tira and Sorra, far larger than life, shaking hands in friendship. Beneath them, closer to human size, are a pair of cowgirls, one dressed in black robes and the other in a feather tunic that leaves little to the imagination. The two cows are locked in a loving embrace, holding each other tightly.

---

The upper route on the south path leads to the Jade Teardrop, which you need to unlock the Blessed Door.
