章 124: - Signs of Destruction

"This might sound like I'm just trying to sound optimistic, but is it at all possible that the statues aren't here in this temple because they were never here in the first place? Perhaps there was something else defending it, or maybe the creators thought that this one never needed any form of defence in the first place."
