Enhatyaka Masjid
The Enhatyaka Masjid is the largest religious mnument in the cities of the Two Kingdoms. There are those seasoned travelers who claim that it outdoes the ancient Crypts of Duru, older even than the cursefolk-guarded Tomb-Riddled Cliffs and now buried in desert sand, lost to time. Ten thousand craftsmen worked on it for more than sven years to raise it from empty earth into the magnificent structure it is today.
The masjid can hold up to 25,000 worshipers, and over 80,000 more can be accomodated on the plazas and balconies of the building overlooking the ritual area. The highest minaret rises to a point over 200 yards into the air and is lit each night by over a thousand anterns within the spire. The interior of the masjid is made of cedar carved by hand and fitted in ornate patterns all over the building. It is one of the most sacred places in Zep Tepi, and the pharaoh himself worships within its magnificent architecture.
