Shattered Pillar
When the Tieflings broke away from their terrible mother in the Age of the Sky Empire, they decided they would forever mark the occasion with coming-of-age pilgrimages to the place where it happened. This location was marked with a pillar embossed with text and illustrations marking important moments in their struggle.
At some point between the 4th and 12th ages, the pillar was shattered into rubble.
In the Age of the Burning Sky the pillar was repaired by the will of The Great Gold Wyrm, and is now gilt with seams of gold. Ever since, during their coming-of-age pilgrimage, a small percentage of Tieflings are called to join the Golden Order as Wyrm-Touched Paladins.
