The Great Temple of Ptah

In the annals of history, there once stood a magnificent and revered structure known as the Great Temple of Ptah. This colossal edifice was a testament to the faith, craftsmanship, and grandeur of the worshippers of Ptah, the patron deity of craftsmanship, creation, and architects. The Great Temple of Ptah spanned an entire planet, its awe-inspiring presence dominating the landscape for miles in every direction. It was a marvel of architectural brilliance, designed with intricate carvings, soaring pillars, and elaborate chambers dedicated to the multifaceted aspects of Ptah's worship.   The temple complex housed not only grand sanctuaries and ceremonial halls but also workshops, libraries, and schools of knowledge. It was a hub of creativity, where artisans, architects, and scholars congregated to hone their crafts and deepen their understanding of Ptah's divine gifts.   The Great Temple of Ptah was not just a physical structure; it embodied the spirit of the god himself. It was said that within its sacred halls, the very essence of Ptah's creative force permeated the air, inspiring all who entered. The temple was a center of spiritual enlightenment, where devotees sought guidance, solace, and the blessings of Ptah.   However, the War of the Book brought devastation upon this once-glorious sanctuary. As the conflict between the Mulan people and the schism within the Temple of Ptah escalated, the Great Temple fell victim to the ravages of war. It became a casualty of the destructive forces unleashed during those tumultuous times.   The exact details of the temple's demise are shrouded in the mists of history. Some say it was a victim of rampant chaos and conflict, while others believe it was intentionally targeted by opposing factions seeking to eliminate symbols of power and influence. Regardless of the cause, the Great Temple of Ptah crumbled under the weight of destruction, reduced to ruins that echoed a lost era.   Today, only fragments and whispers remain of this once majestic temple. Its colossal stature has been reduced to scattered ruins, overgrown with nature's reclamation. Yet, even in its diminished state, the Great Temple of Ptah continues to evoke a sense of awe and reverence, reminding all who encounter its remnants of the incredible feats of devotion and architectural prowess that once graced the cosmos.

Alterations

Legend tells of the mythic destruction of the Great Temple of Ptah during the cataclysmic events of the War of the Book. It was a time of turmoil and conflict, when dark forces clashed with the defenders of light and knowledge.   According to ancient texts and whispered tales, the destruction of the temple was associated with the enigmatic solar dragon known as Kelaireth. This majestic and formidable creature was said to be a guardian of cosmic balance, wielding the power of the sun itself.   As the War of the Book raged across the realms, Kelaireth's involvement became intertwined with the fate of the Great Temple of Ptah. Some believed that the temple's interdimensional hub drew the attention of Kelaireth, who saw its existence as a disruption to the natural order of the multiverse. Some say the ancient dragon was corrupted to the side of the Necronomicon. None are certain.    Clearer legends speak of a great battle between Kelaireth and Temple of Ptah. The solar dragon's radiance blazed with intense fury as it unleashed devastating beams of solar energy upon the temple's hallowed halls. The very fabric of reality trembled under the onslaught, and the temple's once majestic spires crumbled into ruins. The reason was lost to time.
