Cult of the Sun-Lion Enclave
The cult made its headquarters a few miles south of Waset outside a ravine in the Dragon's Tooth Mountains. The headquarters were a huge and sumptuous white silk pavilion, with ornate golden embroidery in patterns across it, including a huge rendition of the cult symbol visible from overhead. The interior was filled with expensive and tasteful furnishings, and was lit with sparkling light as if by a spinning mirror. Outside, enormous subterranean creatures patrolled beneath the sand in front of it. Behind the tent, a pair of pools straddled a pathway into a grove of grapevines.
Only careful study of the encampment revealed the entire area was actually an enormous permanent illusion maintained by the Shining Man. The encampment was actually located in the ruins of an ancient temple complex dedicated to the dark god Set, with an altar before a statue of his sacred animal, the winged hooded cobra.
