Shrine of the Dead
A sacred sanctuary where faith converts sacrifice into divine power.
Within the heart of the Lamb's burgeoning cult base, the Shrine stands as the spiritual anchor for faith and power. Often referred to simply as the Shrine by followers, this structure serves not only as a place of worship but as the mechanism through which the Lamb transcends natural laws. It is here that Power Points, harvested from sacrifices performed at the Altar, are spent to unlock divine abilities, enforcing will upon the living while acknowledging the permanent nature of death for those who fall.

Lore & Background
The existence of this power challenges the limits of mortal capability, yet it respects the finality of death within the cult's domain. Followers are taught that while their service is eternal in spirit, physical death is permanent; there is no return from the grave. This belief strengthens loyalty through a different lens: faith fuels power at the Altar, and that power reinforces faith at the Shrine, binding the community together not by reversing fate, but by granting the Lamb the strength to protect what remains.
Reader's Guide
To utilize this structure, you must first construct the Shrine within your cult base using gathered resources like wood and stone. Once built, it becomes a hub for unlocking new Powers through the sacrifice of followers or items. The most critical function regarding death is the Resurrection Power. Unlocking this requires significant investment in faith and sacrifices at the Shrine. Once active, you can pray to revive fallen followers who have died during expeditions or base events. Note that resurrection consumes resources and depends on your current power level. It is essential to maintain a steady flow of offerings to keep the Shrine's magic potent. This ensures your army remains intact against the forces of the Old Faith.
Did You Know?
- The Shrine does not resurrect followers; death is permanent in standard gameplay, making every life precious.
- While often confused with a place of revival, the Shrine's true purpose is to expand the Lamb's magical repertoire through accumulated faith.
