The House of the Poisoned Tear
Place Campaign 4Sandwater Slough's temple of the Poisoned Tear, keeper of funerals, disease rites and declarations of contamination.
The House of the Poisoned Tear is the temple of the Poisoned Tear (Talona; see The New Gods) in The Central City of Sandwater Slough, beside Shrinewalk. It is a low, shaded stone building with cool interiors. Water drips constantly from a central cistern into a dark glass basin shaped like an open flower, and the walls are etched with droplets and vein-like channels. Its iconography is droplets, petals and dark glass.
Civic contract. Funerary rites, disease observances, and the formal declaration of contaminated zones and afflicted goods. The house also keeps a small triage hospice for the gravely ill and wounded.
In June 2026 (real time) the party worked out that the top of Rillachor's Conservatory of The Necessary Wildness comes out at this temple.
Also known as House of the Poisoned Tear, House of the Poison Tear.
