Temple of the Lunar Eclipse
| ||||||||||||||||
The Lunar Eclipse Hall was a large wooden building on Rougetsu Island, where the Rougetsu Kagura was performed. It was situated between the Yomotsuki House and the Rougetsu Tunnels, and connected directly to both, allowing people to travel between the island's most important ritual sites. Beneath it was the Lunar Underworld Hall, where the Kiraigou was performed.
The exterior of the building is never shown in game, and the main doors leading outside are sealed.
