This is the former headquarters for the Knights Templar, who were once considered to be the elite warriors of Rephidim Temple. It consists of a main fortification cut into the base of Rephidim's central mountain, on the side opposite the city, and is surrounded by what once served as training grounds and a number of other buildings known as Sanctuaries -- symbolic bases for the various Lances of the different Aspects of the Order of the Bounded Star and Anchor. Little is known of what is inside the fortification, but it is said that the main chamber is dominated by a glowing pool of fire, and that the walls sport randomly placed stained glass windows bearing the crests of all of the Aspects ever created for the Order. Now, Golgotha is still used as training grounds for use by the Order, but its base of operations has moved to the sky island of Fetiss, after a schism with the Rephidim Temple.
