Competition: Mountain Top Mystery

Finished
Mountain Top Mystery

House Caliburnus resides within the fortress known as the SteelStrike Garrison, which is built into the side of a mountain. However, at the very top of the mountain that houses the Garrison, there is an aboriginal shrine. Best guesses about the shrine so far is that it has some connection to the aboriginal astronomical beliefs.

I want to know what this shrine looks like. Be creative. I do not want to see twenty copies of Stonehenge.

Please submit your entry in .PNG or .JPG format

Will be graded based on creativity and relevance to the prompt.

This is a sketch made from an aerial holopic of the site. When shown to a member of the faculty at the Shadow Academy the professor studied it for a moment, and then theorized quickly that the central square megolith was likely a primitive observatory. The footpaths that the ancients used to walk around the site was also included by the sketch artist. The academic also thought the 12 stones placed in a rough circle around the large central structure could be degree markers. Within minutes he realized that the four obelisks with the spheres balanced on top were obvious representations of other star systems. He asked the member of House Caliburnus if he could accompany him back to the SteelStrike Garrison and veiw the site for himself.

He then quickly added "Oh, is there any markings or inscriptions on the interior of the square megolith at all, if so this very exciting indeed"

Kinda like...a mesa top from red sand canyon biome? With a shallow pool in the center and a few cut rocks about for sitting, with red sand patters in the lighter sand surrounding-- the symbols do not move even when the sand shifts.

I'm sorry idk what the mountain is like for this description
