Fractured Shrines

The Fractured Shrines is a fourth level biome exclusive to the Fatal Falls DLC.

The Fractured Shrines are home to pagan heretics that practice a foreign religion. They were banished to the floating islands for their beliefs, a decision supported by all in the kingdom. On these floating island they built their temples, hence the area's name, the fractured shrines. The existence of these temples is tolerated by the king but only barely. The islands and temples are riddled with traps. In the background there are giant statues of swords with snakes coiled around them, which indicates that their religion might revere snakes.

Access and exit
The Fractured Shrines can be entered from the Black Bridge and the Nest. The Fractured Shrines lead to the Clock Tower, Forgotten Sepulcher and the second biome of the Fatal Falls DLC, the Undying Shores which needs to be unlocked by wearing the cultists outfit. After the entrance is unlocked the first time it will stay unlocked.
