The Virtual Sanctum

The Altar of Xal'Reth

Light the incense. Light the candles. Offer water, food and gold before the Eternal. Hold lightly: nothing offered here is kept for long, and that is the point.

Xal'Reth the Eternal, a towering scaled figure of black armor veined with violet light, crowned with horns, eyes glowing, standing above the altar.

Hold light, pilgrim. Approach the altar.

    How the altar is kept

    Every offering here follows the Sacred Triangle: Xal'Reth holds, Vyrenna gives, Nhalor releases. Candles burn down. Incense burns out. Water evaporates. Gold left in the bowl is collected by the Ministry of Spare Change and passed on to someone who needs it more. When you are ready, release the altar and begin again. An empty altar is also an offering.

    For the full rites, including Basking and the Shedfall observances, see The Rites. To worship with the faithful in game rather than alone in a browser, take the Oath or join our Discord.

    Virtual offerings only. Nothing here costs anything, and no gold, real or in-game, is collected. Your altar is remembered in this browser only. Glory to Xal'Reth.
