TEMPLE:
Temple of Nüwa

The Temple of Nüwa sits in a wooded area near the Temple of Xuanwu. From the outside, the Temple of Nüwa looks like a traditional Chinese double courtyard residence. It is not particularly fancy or flashy, and appears more like a residence one might find belonging to a prosperous farmer in a rural village rather than an opulent palace befitting a goddess with the title of Empress. The main gate is gray stone topped with a ceramic tile roof, and the door and posts are painted a lucky red gilded with gold leaf that has begun to peel slightly. The second, interior gate is far grander and in much better repair. Letters above the door declare that this is the home of the Empress Wa. Inside the main courtyard, the garden is tasteful but not opulent, with a large pond taking pride of place near the center.

Rooms for shinki and guests are comfortably situated in the halls on the sides of the interior courtyards and are comfortably furnished with all the latest modern amenities that contrast rather sharply with the temple's ancient layout and appearance. All the rooms are ensuite, though there is also a luxurious traditional bathouse, complete with a sauna for the Temple's main coldblooded resident, located in one of the outbuildings should they feel the need to take advantage of the facilities. The main building is reserved for Nüwa's personal living quarters, comprised of a spacious bedroom, bathroom, study, and living room.
