Background

The Farravettre Temple gazes over the fjords and jagged cliffs toward the open sea. Vessels passing through waterways often anchor nearby and send a small boat ashore to make offerings before continuing their voyage. A ritual sacrifice, typically a goat or other small land animal, is believed to placate the sea spirits, ensuring safe passage.

Local villagers come to make sacrifice in hopes of richer catches for their fishing boats, and pilgrims sometimes travel days or weeks to make an offering for the sea to return a lost loved one. Though whether the gods truly hear these rites is unknown, the ceremonies provide a steady supply of fresh carcasses and, more importantly, souls for whatever dwells in the sea cave beneath the temple.

This illustration is part of the Places of Worship series.
