Atur is is a large city in central Karrnath, south of the Karrn River between the Ashen Spires on the east and the Nightwood on the west. It is 332 miles from the capital city of Korth by lightning rail and 227 miles by lightning rail to Vedykar where House Jorasco's headquarters at Resthome lie.
Crimson Monastery
Edit
The Crimson Monastery is Khorvaire's largest worship site dedicated to the Blood of Vol and it is Atur's largest claim to fame. The monastery is a pyramidal building made of blood-red brick and black mortar. The building glows faintly at twilight of a seemingly magical radiance. Guards, both living and dead, watch the entryways into the sacred temple.
