Located within the Kingdom of Avalon, along the shores of the Swan Sea. Cathedral City is one of the largest cities in the Eastern Territory and is THE center of worship for the Church of the Creator.
Cathedral City rivals many of the great cities of the Western Empire. Some would say not only in grandeur but in decadence as well, though none say this within the hearing
of a High Priest. The campus of the Cathedral proper covers nearly a two-mile radius. Its lavish courtyards are filled with fountains, statues and rare and exotic trees. In the
center of the main courtyard is a plain, undecorated hill. Slumbering inside that hill is said to be an ancient golem, referred to as a Battle Saint that is said to protect the city.
Cathedral City is also the home base for The Knights of the Order of the Temple, known to many as the Knights of the Cathedral. They can be clearly seen guarding the
holy shrines and parading about on the temple grounds in their spotless armor. The fighting skills of the Order of the Temple is legendary, it is said that the Order's martial
prowess is only surpassed by its arrogance.
