Ulimeire

A temple on the outskirts of the city of Cetho, in which Maia attends a funeral for the crew of the Wisdom of Choharo. "The temple and the wall around the graveyard were made alike of crumbling red brick. The pillars of the temple portico were in need of a coat of whitewash, and their capitals were shaggy with abandoned birds' nests. Weeds thronged the cracks between the paving stones of the walkway from gate to temple, and the grass in the graveyard had grown so tall that the tops of the gravestones appeared like...islands in a tempestuous and brittle sea."

The unnamed prelate is stout, shabby, and wears black robes and a dented moon-mask.
