The Sovereign's Temple is located near the highest peaks of the Seran Range southeast of [[Dulsing]]. The temple is a bleak stone fortress, one story tall, and built of field stones. At the entrance there is a large statue of the Sovereign holding a wooden spear, topped with the [[Bands of Mourning]], re-forged into a spearhead.{{book ref|mb6|23}} Inside the entrance to the Temple is a long hallway with a lighting mechanism powered by [[ettmetal]] at the start.{{book ref|mb6|23}}. Various traps litter the Temple hallway, which include spikes, spiked logs, pits lined with spikes, poison darts, and acid, presumably to guard against [[kandra]].{{book ref|mb6|24}} Past the traps is a door surrounded by a number of unknown symbols. Pressing on three of the symbols activates the door, causing it to open. The three symbols are explained to be a language only the Sovereign knows and consists of a circle, a triangle, and some other (not described) symbol.
