Altar of Vanisse
Underneath the raised circular platform and entryway is the sacred altar
of Vanisse. Upon the floor is carved a large circle, with rays extending
outward to touch the walls. Where each of these carved rays touch the
walls, a mirror is angled to bring in beams of light from the Sun to
illuminate under the platform. All of the beams of light, reflected,
converge in the center upon a raised altar. There is a doorway to the
south.

[Exits: south]
A simple altar with a small crystal has been raised from the floor.
(Charmed) A huge, many-coloured dragon is here, its scales changing colour every moment.
(White Aura) A golden Lioness stands vigil next to the altar, protecting it from intruders.

You tell Vanisse 'All six steps have been found.'

Vanisse tells you 'What have you learned?'

You tell Vanisse 'To find the wondering and guide them to the truth they seek.'

Vanisse tells you 'What is the truth?'

You tell Vanisse 'The truth for everyone is different.'
You tell Vanisse 'It is my job to help find their truth.'
You tell Vanisse 'As I leave this place I must be aware, and speak consciously, while finding the souls seeking truth.'

Vanisse tells you 'Where does one find the truth?'

You tell Vanisse 'Inside themselves.'
You tell Vanisse 'Or with the gods.'
You tell Vanisse 'There is so many ways I can think of that truth can go.'

Vanisse tells you 'There are indeed.'

You tell Vanisse 'What I may percieve as truth may be blasphemy to someone else.'

Vanisse tells you 'These truths we seek are categorized thus: one may find truth in the world they touch and see and hear, or the world they imagine. One may find truth in their connections to others, and in their connection with themself.'

Vanisse tells you 'Once one has learned to be aware of each of these spheres of consciousness, one begins to seek the truth.'

Vanisse tells you 'It is an endless journey of discovery, but knowing this path allows you to lead others to enlightenment.'

You tell Vanisse 'And the gods hold the truth.'

Vanisse tells you 'We all hold some truth within us.'

You tell Vanisse 'Aye.'

The air shimmers suddenly as Vanisse manifests before you.

Vanisse anoints you with a drop of oil on your forehead. It smells faintly familiar, the scent from your dreams.

You fall on your knees and worship Vanisse.
