The Sovereign's temple is a building in the Seran Range of Elendel Basin. It was built by the Sovereign and his priests to house the Bands of Mourning.
Legend of the Sovereign's Temple
Allik Neverfar told the story of the Sovereign's Temple to Marasi Colms during their attempt to find it. The Sovereign left Southern Scadrial with a group of elite priests. They built a temple hidden in tall mountains and were commanded to guard the Bands of Mourning until his return. Some priests eventually returned to Southern Scadrial with stories of the Temple and its purpose. Many Southern Scadrians interpreted this as a challenge issued by the Sovereign to find the Bands.[1]
