Inside the thick picture book is a magnificent drawing of a landscape.

The painting shows the two temples in Golden Sandbar. The mysterious runes on the temples' stone architecture were drawn in painstaking detail. The understated magnificence of the painting makes the viewer feel a sense of longing for the land depicted within.

You recognize the temples in the painting. The translucent sphere is the Hurricane Prince's Temple, while the old and solemn temple is dedicated to the Duke of Sands.

(The temples in the painting are so beautiful that you'd like to see the temples of the Duke of Sands and the Hurricane Prince with your own eyes.)

In the painting, the Hurricane Prince's Temple seems to sparkle. The light passing through the temple's crystal exterior walls makes it look as if the temple itself was glowing.

The Duke of Sands' Temple is built from huge, heavy stone blocks. The temple hall sits at the top of the cone, high above its surroundings. Conveyed through the painting is the enduring beauty of the old temple.

(The artist had a keen eye for detail and managed to even capture the reverent auras of the temples.)

To stand in the temple and see, touch, and feel everything for yourself puts you in the shoes of the artist who made those paintings so long ago.

Standing in front of the temple and experiencing the scene for yourself, you feel that the trip has not been wasted, and has deepened your appreciation for these great monuments.
