HIGH PRIEST KURR
Sin is here. Shame clouds the heads of those who enter. This place steals food from the mouths of children by playing on the weakness of good men. We must refrain from entering to cure our town of this disease. What goes on here gives offense to Rayetso. To avoid the three hells, shun this debauchery.
