Description This structure is located at the northern end of the Celestial Capital of Al'Taieu. The "Ou'Hpat Obelisk" was the mausoleum where the Zilart interred their dead. After the spatial transfer, the Obelisk became the Temenos section of Limbus. Now many entities that became trapped in the Crystal Line roam these halls, including a prototype biotechnological weapon. Temenos looks much like the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi and The Garden of Ru'Hmet. Trading a single colored chip obtained from one of the three initial areas to the Matter Diffusion Module in Al'Taieu at time of entry will open access to one of the first three "layers" of Central Temenos. A different colored chip may be found on each of these layers; trading all three of these specific chips will open access to the fourth layer of Central Temenos, where Proto-Ultima may be fought.

Historical Background

Temenos is the Greek word for a sacred space or holy precinct (or sacred ground). That space is the land which a sanctuary or temple is built on. The temple is only part of the sacred space; the rest is usually left unaltered (a grove of trees, a natural spring, etc). Temenos meant the space that was reserved or protected for the gods. Temenos has *other* connotations, but those seem to be relatively modern and take the term and give it a new meaning. The definition given here is the original meaning it had in ancient Greek society. Temenos is Greek for "to cut", "to delimit", or "to divide".
