==Shrines, Statuary, and Holy Places==
===[[Cleric Guild]]s===
In a Prayer Room inside each Cleric Guild is a statue of Voln. The Prayer Rooms are considered holy shrines to multiple deities.
<pre{{log2}}>
You see a man clad in full chainmail topped by a surcoat. He rests on one knee, a slightly battered shield at his side and an oft-nicked longsword in his hand. The weariness in his face is tempered by vigilance and grim determination.

K>touch Voln
You reach out and touch the statue of Voln.

A soft wave of magic flows over you, making your skin tingle with Voln's energies.</pre>

===[[Cleric Guild (Wehnimer's Landing)|Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild]]===
One of the Halls of Lessons in the Wehnimer's Landing Cleric Guild is dedicated to Voln. The statue is identical to that in the other Cleric Guilds. It is considered a holy shrine.

{{RoomDescription
|roomname=Cleric Guild, Hall of Lessons
|desc=Dark ebonwood panels line the walls of this small room, their mottled surfaces dimly illuminated by several large pillar candles. The statue of a man bedecked in black chain-mail is located within a small arched alcove, the white marble around him a stark contrast to the dark surroundings. The man's face is stony even for a statue, and a grimly determined expression has been chiseled upon his face. A simple black altar sits before the shallow niche, an ivory kite shield lying upon its surface.
|exits= northeast}}
<pre{{log2}}>
Crafted of sturdy black vultite, the altar is unadorned and very plain-looking. A white kite shield lies downturned atop its surface.

The shield has plainly seen many battles, as evident by the scratches and dents which have been slightly hidden by a coating of dye. Inscribed across its surface in plain script are the words, "The struggle always continues, and the righteous will never abandon the fight."
</pre>

Located in the Antechamber of Others is a statue of {{PAGENAME}}. This area is not considered a holy shrine.

<pre{{log2}}>
This figurine depicts a well-built man in full black chainmail armor covered with a belted white surcoat. His expression is grim, his eyes are full of purpose, and he holds a white shield in his hands. The symbol represented is that of a white shield on a field of black.</pre>

===[[Cleric Guild (Ta'Vaalor)|Ta'Vaalor Cleric Guild]]===
One of the Chambers of Lessons in the Ta'Vaalor Cleric Guild is dedicated to Voln. The statue is identical to that in the other Cleric Guilds. It is considered a holy shrine.
{{RoomDescription
|roomname=Spirit Hall, Chamber of Lessons
|desc=Neatly ordered rows of columns form the circular chamber, banners of black bearing white shields hung between them. Within the recesses of an arched niche is a towering statue of a man, his grim form knelt down in a vigilant prayer. A small altar draped with a black velvet cloth is set before the statue, its white surface appearing pale and somber within the embrace of the faint candlelight.

In the Common language, it reads:
"Control and temperance are the measure of any great commander. This Patron embodies these qualities - he endures where others would flounder. All may find valuable assets in this one's teachings."</pre>
