Paw'Don Temple

The Temple of Paw'Don

The Temple of Paw'Don was established shortly after the founding of the town, and since then has been staffed with several priests of Chi-Ji. Ancient by all meaning of the word, the temple was a place young pandaren who wished to serve Pandaria as healers and guides could come to learn.

Appearance

The temple was crafted by master pandaren craftsmen, hired from both Paw'Don and several surrounding villages. The construction took almost a decade, but it has stood the test of time, training many priests since then.

The Parting of the Mists

As a fleet of True Horde sail toward Paw'Don, the clergy rushed around the village, evacuating as many people as they could either out of the village or into the temple.

The great ironwood doors begin to shake, the sound of a furious orc horde outside, ready for killing. And that is what they did, the bloodthirsty orcs slaughtered every priest and pandaren in the temple. It is noted that the only known survivor of the order, Zenjio did not return, althought inherited the title of High Priest.

Since then, the temple has been deserted. The dead were taken out and buried, but beyond that, little has happened there since.

The Destruction

Recently, residents of Paw'Don have reported to the Shado-Pan (June 2017) that the temple was demolished by some form of void adherent. Some residents have been noted to suggest they saw the last High Priest of the temple, simply named "Zenjio" in the village before the destruction. Some say the battle went on for several hours, a light show of good and evil, light and void.

The outcome of course, is that Zenjio was slain by this force, who is suspected to be 'Kai'. Kai is from a scare story in the Jade Forest, and it is unlikely he was responsible. The pillars have been noted to have been collapsing during those hours, the great stone temple finally falling as the last one no longer gave support. Dust rose up and covered the surrounding area briefly.
