Temple of Mnomquah

Near the Crater of Mnomquah, on a low hill, the moon-beasts have erected a huge idol of their god. Within the hill itself lies their temple. The idol is immensely old, and is carved from a single piece of primeval moonstone. It is vaguely reptilian in form, but stands upright like a man, with stunted forepaws like those of some giant dinosaur. Beneath the idol's feet in the side of the hill is a great pivoting slab of stone which is the doorway into the temple.
The interior of the temple is a vast labyrinth, lit with phosphorescent fungus. For the most part the tunnels are artificial, but some are natural fissures in the rock. The floors of the tunnels have been worn smooth by the passing of countless priests and worshipers. It is utterly silent, except for when the moon-beasts are at worship. Then the halls are filled not only with the strange high-pitched fluting of the priests, but also the low chanting of the few Lengites who serve in the temple.
