To be clear, there *were* shrines. And they did disappear. We don't know *how* they were lost, even OOC. I suspect they just didn't have enough contributions to keep going, or something. My character discussed it with the the Queen a few times, and came to the conclusion that they did not tear them down. IIRC, it was Brance's attempts to keep things calm, and the fact that there was no hard proof that they were maliciously torn down, that kept matters from getting out of hand.
Would the Way of the Dragon even been able to tear down the shrines? I don't remember the religion ever having set the relationship with SA that low.
