The ruins of the ancient temple of Yir-Tanon lie in the midst of the forest of Tanonwood, south and east of the city of Talinus, in Central Tysa. Built over a thousand years ago in honour of Srythak, the All-Father, the temple was long ago abandoned by his followers and has fallen into decay and ruin. From time to time various groups of undesirable creatures, most notably goblins, ogres, and even tzaril have inhabited the temple ruins.
