Shrines of Nature

The Shrines of Nature was a temple complex in Waterdeep dedicated to the worship of the deities Mielikki and Silvanus. The shrine dedicated to Mielikki was also commonly known as the Lady's Hand.

Location
This temple complex was located in Waterdeep's Sea Ward, between Bliss Street, Ivory Street, and the Street of Whispers.

Structure
This temple complex was walled-in and forested. It consisted of two buildings that were both one-story tall.

History
These shrines to Mielikki and Silvanus were once separate, unaffiliated structures, but sometime around 1367 DR they merged to become a temple complex known as the Shrines of Nature.

In 1368 DR, the Shrines of Nature was one of the many temples within Waterdeep to receive an endowment from the nobleman Ultas Maernos.

Inhabitants
Prior to becoming a temple complex, the high priests Anarakin Iriboar and Briosar Helmsing ran their respective shrines to Silvanus and Mielikki. In addition, the shrine to Mielikki had a ranger-priest by the name of Tehtira Bellsilver. Once their shrines joined together into a temple complex, these high priests continued to be its operators. There were also a number of priestesses that worked within the complex.
