The Shrine of Passion in Ultima VI

The Shrine of Passion is a shrine located in the Realm of the Gargoyles and dedicated to the Gargoyle virtue of the same name.

Description[edit]

The cavern containing the shrine is located in the northeast of the realm. However, before the adventurer can reach the shrine itself, he must first walk through lava and traps. But be warned that the shrine is also guarded by horrible daemons who jealously guard their former mistress who now is the Shrine of Passion: Minax.

The Avatar visited the shrine in Ultima VI to learn more about the virtue of Passion. After that time, the shrine was brought to Terfin, while the chamber was destroyed by the collapse of the Underworld. The shrine was found there in Ultima VII in the temple of the Shrines of the Principles.

Lore[edit]

In the Catacombs of Passion you will walk through lava. In each shrine will you learn the mantra of one of the gargoyle principles. Combined together into one word, these syllables become the Mantra of Singularity.

The Shrine of Passion is now situated in the center of a boiling pit of magma, with elevated walkways crossing the lava. The hero must cross the bridge, and then wade through the lava itself to reach the shrine in the center.
