Phantoms Of The Altar Who is the real Moriah?

Who is the real Moriah?

___________

She leads us back up the path, towards the Altar precinct.

As we walk, Rhoda points out various features of the altar from the, lanterns to the prayer plaques on display.

Ruth

Thanks, Rhoda. This is really helping me get my bearings.

Rhoda

No problem. I want you to feel welcome here.

Rhoda

Moriah spends a lot of time indoors, and who knows where Jordan gets to half the time...

Rhoda

...But personally, I really like, just walking around the grounds.

She flashes a girlish grin.

Rhoda

I'm glad you're here, Ruth.

Ruth

Really?

Rhoda

Really. The shrine gets lonely without visitors, and it's been a long time since we had any of those.

Ruth

Well... I'm glad someone's happy I'm here.

Rhoda

*barks out a laugh*

Rhoda

Oh, don't worry about Moriah and Jordan.

Rhoda

They just take a while to warm up to new people.

Ruth

(I feel like that's putting it mildly...)

Ruth

You don't seem to have that problem.

Rhoda

Nope! I love people!

Rhoda

I only wish more of them came by.

Rhoda

I think the others would like it too, even if they won't admit it.

Rhoda

Moriah used to be almost cheerful, back then things were busy.

Ruth

What happened?

We come to a stop outside. One of the smallest buildings, and Rhoda stares off into the distance.

Rhoda

I don't really know.

Rhoda

Jordan says everyone just forgot about Moriah, but I can't believe that.

Ruth

Why not?

Rhoda

Because of who she is.
