The Temple of Tymora is a fortified stone structure located in the Malar’s Throat district of Port Nyanzaru. Built like a sturdy blockhouse rather than an elegant temple, it serves a dual purpose as both a place of worship and a practical emergency shelter for the surrounding neighborhood.
Function and Importance
The temple acts as a safe refuge for residents during two types of crises:
- When floodwaters pour down Malar’s Throat
- When alarm horns signal undead attacks approaching the city, providing shelter when there’s insufficient time to reach other safety zones
Community Significance
Despite not considering themselves particularly fortunate, the residents of Malar’s Throat attribute what little luck they have to Tymora’s presence among them. The temple’s utilitarian design reflects the practical needs of the working-class district it serves, prioritizing protection and accessibility over architectural beauty.
