It is built from red sandstone and pink marble. The pillars are carved with unknown symbols and the remaining walls show signs of once having pictures painted on them, but these decorations have been erased almost totally by the blowing sand. Now, mounds of sand pile around their bases. The ruin seems to smell of rot, and buzzards perch on the standing walls.Leading up to the temple a narrow ramp with crumbling pillars rises up out of the sand. As the ramp reaches the top, the columns are taller and more complete. Propped against the six uppermost pillars (@) are six skeletons, wearing ragged bits of clothing and armor and holding various weapons.[sblock=Rhun]The crystal hilt is glowing brighter here.  Aram can almost feel it throbbing now.[/sblock][sblock=buried temple][code],,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,O....,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,....XXXX,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,....X,,gN,@.@.@.@.@.O....X,,RB,..........H..P...,SSA,@.@.@.@.@.O....X,SS,,,,,,,,,,,,,....X,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,....XXXX,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,O....,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, = sand    . = platform or floor@ = broken column, O = column, H = stairsX = wallP = sandy stone pit / dry poolA = Aram (+ camel?)B = Bevin (+ camel?)g = Girgal + RipclawN = Nargon (+ camel?)R = Rajah + Bones + RazorSSSS = Skelete[/code][/sblock]</blockquote>
