It was said that Sukirta, one of the many disciples of Sushruta (the first healer), had founded Vasta and its shrine. Sukrita was a rare genius who had both powers - the art of healing and the skills of a warrior.
The colossal statue of Sukrita was built by Yama, the great Arch-Druid who had unified Glassia and vanquished stone-giants and evil trees.
It was believed that Sukrita had traded his prana (soul) for Yama.
Despite its great lineage, Vasta had only a healer's shrine or so-called white-cloaked druids' shrine.
You would rarely see a red-cloaked or blue cloaked druid here. Golden cloaked Arch druids were mythical beings for the people of Vasta.
Even white-cloaked druids didn't want to stay in this blackwater country more than they needed to. The Elder Council of Avida had to forge a code to make it mandatory for a new white-cloaked to serve in such blackwater parts for three years.
