The last uprising of the Sorceress Goddess of Death Talinoman occurred during Dapa in 1044. Five priestesses of the goddess were killed or captured. All refused to speak at all when questioned other than to say “Talinoman will consume you all and spit you back out as Her minions!” The author of one account noted that each of the priestess had a powerful presence. The Temple of Talinoman was found southeast of Lake Catherine in what is now known as Dendros. The Temple was razed, but not before horrible shambling zombies and skeletons were put to the sword or consumed in the fires of Andreja’s Majesty. The symbol worn by all of these priestess was a ring of metal attached by four small chains to an enclosing diamond of metal.
  
     

Each of these priestesses fought with a swordsman of some kind by their side. When the temple was penetrated, six sleeping chambers were discovered suggesting a sixth person escaped capture. No mention of the apprehension of this person could be found.  The accounting also showed a floor plan of the temple that was razed. I was unfamiliar with some of the markings but copied it faithfully. The temple was mostly below ground with only three small buildings above ground.
