A tribute is also given to Bahamut in the areas where their is a temple for the great Dragon Pantheon. Stories are acted out on stage by the bards of the great victory's of this great clan. The Gate Keepers and the Order of the Phoenix are also remembered for there feats in defending Northern Azure form the The Black moon and Black Legion empire.
