So should I take the number of views and no definitive response as saying that no one else knows much about it either? Maybe it's time to shoot RAWA a PM...

wow

As far as I'm aware, the Temple of Yahvo and Temple of the Great King were two separate structures. The former was apparently built all the way back during Ri'neref's rule and renovated several times over D'ni's history.

I don't know if this is the same or separate building, but the Temple/Tomb of the King lies beneath the guild hall.

Here's an early sketch:

The Temple is the domed building at the bottom.

The version of the Guild Hall we can see is decently high up Ae'gura's slope. Unfortunately, it's just a sprite.

See Lehm's attempt to recreate the original Guild Hall here.

Something that's been niggling at the back of my brain for some time now is exactly where on Ae'gura the Temple of Yahvo was supposed to have been located. It's mentioned very prominently in several of the entries in the Hall of Kings, and I'd assume that it would have been located on or near the line of the Great Zero...but we can kind of see most of what's on that line, and it's obviously not a building that we have access to. Has RAWA or anyone else ever mentioned where it is?
