Temple of Tsukiyomi
| ||||||||||||||||
The Temple of Tsukiyomi (called the Lunar Underworld Hall in fan translations) is a very large underground shrine on Rogetsu Isle. It was the site of the original Rite of Descent. After the first Day of Tranquility, the Rite of Descent was forbidden, and the area was sealed away behind a shrine mechanism in the Antechamber. The replacement Kagura was performed on the Rogetsu Stage above.
For many years the Temple of Tsukiyomi was inaccessible, but Shigeto Haibara and Soya Yomotsuki used the Camera Obscura to recover lost documentation and reopened the door.[1] In the 70s, the Rite of Descent was performed there again, but the ritual failed. The Vessel, Sakuya Haibara, fell into a coma and the five Organs lost their memories. Misaki Asou dropped her special doll, Miya, in the shrine and is subsequently lured there by Sakuya.
