The claustrophobic streets opened up once more as he made his way through the parklands that surrounded the temple. He walked past several players who were sitting around on the park benches and who seemed to be enjoying their time in this world.
Merlin realised that he had seen more players today than he had for the past several weeks combined.
He walked up the marble staircase that led up to the Greek-style temple's entrance before making his way through the open doorway.
There were several players inside the temple as well, several of which were praying towards the large golden statue of Gaia. Merlin noticed that several of the depictions of gods and goddesses that decorated the large platform were faintly glowing, this was an indication that a deity was responding to prayer, one of the core mechanics behind the cleric class.
