Iron Cage

The Iron Cage temple is dedicated to Lamastu is on Holy Street in the Temple District of Old Vashton, it is one of the most complained about temple in Old Vashton due to its smell, wreaking of animal filth and stale blood, the temple itself is little more than a group of very small enclosures housing rather sad looking magical beasts that would be better described as being "kept alive" rather than being "looked after" by the druids of the temple.
There are very strict rules laid down by House Phiarlan about how the temple needs to maintain and ensure that the beasts will not and cannot escape into the city, this means that the creatures containment is a much higher priority than their happiness leading to many chains and restraints on the creatures. Worshipers of Erastil often complain about seeing any creature treated this way and claim that these animals should either be respected or put out of their misery depending on where they stand on magical creatures. Many others who complain about The Cage still have a morbid curiosity to see these rare creatures more closely, and visitors come to see the beasts especially if there is a new addition.
