Temple District

The Temple District is on the western side of Old Vashton. If you enter this district from the Market District you are greeted by a street of lavish temples, known as Holy Street , on the left are seven temples one to each of The Seen gods and on the right is one to each of The Unsen gods at the end of the street is a T junction and across the street that intersects with holy street is the most lavish of temples the Grand Temple, which is for worship of The Seen and Unseen gods. This district has other temples to these gods allowing for different styles of worship as well as worship dedicated to the god uniquely rather than as one of the Seen/Unseen gods, as well as temples to other gods which are not one of these gods though there is a small level of persecution which comes with these religions, like higher taxes on those temples less freedom to attract followers and far less attractive locations. The best represented within this area, other deities are The Metallic Dragon gods, the only god which is totally outlawed here is Pharasma, though most gods have little more than a road side shrine that suffers some sort of vandalism which is slow to be repaired if not by a personal worshiper. 
There are a number of monasteries here in the Temple district as well as individual houses to allow for the accommodation of many of the temple acolytes, most of the shops here also sell incense and holy symbols some only to one god in the hope of garnering the favour of that deities followers and others that stock as many different holy symbols as they can to appeal to all followers. This district probably has the least amount of House influence and house crests are pretty rare here only a few House Ghallanda ones on some of the shops, those of House Phiarlan can be seen on the street maintaining the district while the Temples of Torag see a lot some visitation from House Kundarkak in conjunction with their work at the Everburn, and those House Deneith only really come to the district on business when acting as body guards to people who feel the need for them and have the coin. Even the town guard are less numerous here as many of the temple acolytes work as guards for the area with the massive difficulty being that many of the different religions hold different beliefs on what is right and wrong, the Unseen gods being far less popular/ numerous means that they are unable to call things like acts of kindness a crime or the theft and black mail are legitimate means of acquiring goods from a shop, but they do have a presence as guards and if mainly just to try and state that they exist to. 
The seven temples to the Unseen gods here in the entrance to the temple district are the main temples for those gods, as although the belief in these gods are allowed the act of worshipping them is still mostly outlawed, when it involves the murder or stealing everyone's food. This said the worship and each of the practices are allowed within the temple meaning that some of them are only safe for those who worship that god or who believe their strong enough to protect themselves venture inside. The law of the land has limited affect within the temple grounds, for instance within the Pranuneron the practice of necromancy is allowed, or The Field of Destruction where you are allowed to have fights to the death or even worse where straight up murder is allowed within The Midnight Maze.There is one of the temples which revive a lot more traffic than the other temples which is the Amethyst Palace, a location where people come to worship Nivi Rhombodazzle by gambling,
