Standing proudly over the start of the ridge, these ancient city ruins overlook both north and south, both mountain and river, like a boundary marker. Legend has it that its gates and blessings are only open to those whose hearts are lit with an eternal blaze.

This ruin used to be a temple devoted to the benevolent Falcon of the West. The Temple of the Falcon has watched over Windrise for thousands of years. Perhaps the winds of the past still linger within its halls.
