The City of Temples is a retrofuturistic city run by a family who honor the Source Dragons and hold the Tournament of the Sources for Elemental Masters. It's protected by robotic security guards. Before the Merge, the city moved realms every few years around the time of the tournament.
History[]
Background[]
Long ago, the City of Temples was established atop a mountain, adjacent to the Dragon Stone Shrine. The city and shrine would rotate into a designated realm, allowing the family of Source Dragon adherents, who oversee the Tournament of the Sources, to conduct the tournament for the Elemental Masters within that realm.[5] However, during one such rotation to the Realm of Oni and Dragons,[6] a grave threat emerged when Thunderfang launched an assault with the intent to obliterate both the City of Temples and its devoted followers. The Arc Dragon of Focus intervened, engaging in a fierce battle against Thunderfang, ultimately leading to the latter's imprisonment.[7] Following the Merge, the City of Temples ceased its rotation to alternate realms and remained firmly situated in its original location.[1][2]
