The Grand Temple of Camus Inakas is an institution of the city of Heroka dedicated to the worship of Camus Inakas, the god of arcane magic under the High Elven Pantheon. Unsurprisingly, its vast grounds and marble surrounds are used in part as a sort of college of arcane instruction (though the greater school of the city is actually the Lyceum Ars Magica, which is nearby. The temple is the trust of the Pontiff of Camus Inakas and is the head temple of all such temples to the god throughout the Atarlie Empire - while many such temples are smaller, they are built off the example of the Grand Temple.

In particular, the catacombs below the temple open onto several libraries, treasuries, and laboratories known collectively as the Repository. The Repository serves as a centralized store of magical learning and unique arcane artefacts for the empire. It is therefore rather jealously guarded.

The temple grounds also contain the principle pathway to reach the Font of the Axis, a sacred site said to have been constructed before the birth of Camus Inakas by the Pre-Baghar Civilization, perhaps even divinely created by Anghara.
