However, destroying an altar (or even simply allowing an altar to be destroyed) will anger Kali, reducing your favor standing with her. If her anger surpasses the favor you've earned, she will inflict dire punishments upon you that will increase in severity if you continue to offend her. Altars may generate at random in any of the five main areas of the cave, but never in Olmec's Lair, King Yama's Lair or in most bonus levels. Altars also never appear on the first level of the mines. A guaranteed altar will be found near the exit of the Haunted Castle, shaped like a giant throne.
