“The clerics of Abydos say those machines were responsible for the apocalypse that befell mankind,” Sia said. “It was those machines that drove man against man. And so any trace of one of these accursed machines is strictly forbidden. That’s why all of these relics, every last one, were gathered up in a huge temple called the Graveyard of the Past. They’re guarded by the clerics and servants of the temple so that no man can ever get too close. They say that whoever does will be punished by the gods.”
