| (Not common information outside of Nordika and Temple circles) The Sanctuary of Order, also known as the Sanctuary of Gears, is an oasis of reality and sanity in the Forbidden Zone region of Bosch, located near its western border with Gallis. A mountain pass road connects the Sanctuary with Gallis, and is the only means of ferrying in the supplies the Sanctuary depends upon -- and the pilgrims who occasionally visit (typically bringing donations and gifts for the pilgrims from afar -- the most prized being books to add to its many libraries). The structure itself would resemble a great gear, if it could be viewed from above, and is a well-fortified place, built on consecrated grounds, and defended by a dedicated order of monks and mages. The Bronze Lance of the Knights Templar of the Order of the Bounded Star and Anchor is based here, led by the Champion of Order (also known as the Champion of Gears).
