Church Square

The grand facade of the Lithmorran cathedral dominates the square, providing a stained-glass, gothic opulence to the space below. Laid in an artful pattern, red and white bricks converge in alternating bands towards a central fixture, a splendid fountain. Off to the southwest, in the tended lawn, stands a statue easily nine feet tall. Below it rests a bench, obscuring the engravings in the statue's base. At each of the four corners of this square stands a tall stone lamp to light the square at night.

A fountain interrupts the center of the square. Aged, white marble carved in gorgeous baroque fashion depicts some unknown story, spilling water from the mouths of flying fish held aloft by spears. Men and women lounge artfully amongst one another, the spears tucked beneath their arms or resting against the central pillar, from which a woman's face juts, eyes wide, in each of the four cardinal directions. The same expression, watchful and solemn, appears on each visage. The wide base of the fountain, so broad as to seem a pool marred only by stone feet and hands touching the water's surface, bears carvings of chalices in alternating sizes rest against interlocking diamonds of pink marble.
