The Moonglow catacombs (also known as the crypts) lie deep under the city and function as the burial place for the citizens of Moonglow.
History[edit]
As long as the city Moonglow existed, the catacombs were used as the last resting place for the people of the city of Honesty, whom they buried there with their worldly possessions. It is also a known fact that even before the unification of Britannia, the rulers of the city also used it to contain their treasures for safe keeping.
During or before the war against the marauding Gargoyles, Beyvin, the keeper of the rune of Honesty, who was dear to Penumbra, found an untimely death through murder. Thereafter they buried him inside one of the crypts along with the rune. His cousin Manrel held the only key to his crypt, which the Avatar needed to enter to get the rune.
At the time of the Age of Armageddon the catacombs could not be accessed any more.
Lore[edit]
“ | This is where they buried my pal Beyvin, and my old master, Cantrell. You can get there through the Blue Bottle tavern, or a ladder in Xiao’s house. Don't ask me what she does down there... Maybe it has something to do with her experiments. – from The Book of Prophecy (Ultima VI)
