Summer of Lore #64: The Schola Aqua

After having a bit of writer's block yesterday, I have some more information on Taraka:

Located not far from the Crystal Arena and the Ichidou Aeris (a great shrine to the wind goddess made completely out of peridot), the Schola Aqua ("the school of water") is usually where aquatic competitions are held, should a tournament have them on the schedule. If no competition is being held, you can be taught everything from basic swimming lessons to how to battle in water.

Devotees of the water goddess in Taraka often come here to meditate, although thousands of acolytes will descend on Taraka at the start of the rainy season to be fully initiated as priests and priestesses. The ceremony culminates in each acolyte being completely doused in the first storm of the rainy season as a sign of their devotion
