The Pyramid

Mythical building in the jungle of Osbane. There is little real knowledge of the place, but historical sources indicate that the founder of the Sun Lands left the Golden Man there.

Deep in the Osbantine jungle stands a great monument of of a forgotten civilization. It was once believed to be relic of the First Empire (the Settler culture), but historians have found no record of this in other annals. Some believe it to origin from the Second Empire (the Builders), others think it is the remains of a Native Osbantine culture, but most think it a city once populated by great apes. Theories aside, the first description known to us is that of Hinu , founder of the Lands of the Setting Sun (Keä-Sonda). In the journal dating from about 175 before the common calendar, he describes it simply as a high pyramid rising out of the jungle. According to the same description, he found several entrances and explored them. The Pyramid was huge, but partially illuminated as parts of the inside was lighted by light wells. He found an isolated room, wherein he placed the Golden Man. So he tells us. Later descriptions differ somewhat. Though many treasure-hunters have died with their secrets, some accounts have come back. Recent accounts from 1114 CC tell of a large city laid out in a regular pattern. The Pyramid stands in the center, but though it is dominant, it is not that high and appears more like a ziggurat than a pyramid. The Golden Man was never retrieved, and the explorers encountered demon-like creatures when they tried to enter the ruins. This has barred a thorough exploration but has attracted more adventurers.
