Adamantine Monastery

The Adamantine Monastery is a large monastery in the Wrothgarian Mountains of High Rock. It was named for the Adamantine, or Direnni, Tower; as parts of the monastery are built from rocks from the Tower it was given this name.

History
The monastery was built some time during the early Fifth Era, as a reclusive stronghold for the Knights of Azura. It underwent many changes in population as the Knights were hunted down, but they would almost always re-occupy it.

Sometime in 6E 184 Princess Marya arrived at the monastery, and is now the High Priestess.

Geography
Although its name suggests its proximity to the Adamantine Tower, the monastery is actually in the Wrothgarian Mountains. Its actual location is unknown to many, and it is almost impossible to get to short of using an airship.

Layout
The monastery has an office for the High Priestess, as well as halls for the monks to sleep and dine in. There are many places for training, as well as for worship.
