Large stone tomb. Before the damage in TheGoldenYears, was a fine example of localcraftsmanship - Isaiah had specified before his death that he wanted to be interred by local people (for local people!). 20 feet square inside (25x25 externally), apex roof with columns etc. Big and imposing. Inside, space for Isaiah in a sarcophagus at one end with Margaret next to him. Large ornate carvings abound - a mixture of traditional archangels etc. and depictions of the exploits of Isaiah, both in the war and around town.
