'''Holy sites''' are randomly spawned zones for players to find. They are themed after specific Gods and biomes, in unsettled areas of the map. Priests and followers of that [[deity]] can maintain the site through [[prayer]]s and [[sermon]]s. The Holy site will provide bonuses to all who have a [[Premium]] account. The site will also have some additional positive effects within it radius. Some of these benefits will be available to all [[premium]] accounts even if they do not follow that particular [[deity]].
* Holy sites are temporary and will last approximately 2 weeks.
== Discovery ==
* Each type of Holy site can only spawn in places matching certain features, limiting the areas you might need to search in order to find them. * You can receive a map, which will help guide you to a Holy site through [[prayer]], [[sermons]] or [[meditation]]. Note that only actions that would give a chance to gain [[faith]] or [[meditation]] skill has a chance to give a map. These maps have various modifiers applied to make them less clear than a normal [[Treasure map]] or [[Cartography]] map, so you may need to compare maps with others or combine them with your understanding of the server layout in order to locate the Holy site. *These maps hints will be given for Holy sites site's that have not yet been located and activated. They will also be associated with the God you follow.* *On PVP servers, you may also get hint about opposite-light gods' (i.e. maps of a White light Holy site if your God is Libila and vice-versa). * Holy sites that have been located and activated can be seen by right clicking an altar and choosing "locate Holy sites". *Using this action will show the locations of all activated Holy sites on the in-game map.
==Activation==
A Holy site is dormant and provides no benefits until it is found and activated by a follower or priest of the site's [[deity]].
* To activate the Holy site, pray or hold a sermon (with enough listeners for [[faith]] gain at the special item in the center of the Holy site. * Once activated, the expiration timer of the Holy site will reset, in order to guarantee that a site will last for its full duration after being found.
==Power and Corruption==
Power and Corruption are the two most important characteristics of a Holy site. Each ranges from 0 to 100.
*Founding a settlement
*Expanding an existing settlement into the Holy site.
*Terraforming (diffingdigging, mining, etc.).
*Building structures or fences.
*Changing tile types by packing, cultivating, adding or removing pavement, dropping dirt/sand, transmuting, planting or cutting trees, or any similar actions.
