Palmeni Temple is a religious shrine in Daein in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.
Overview[]
Years prior to the events of Path of Radiance, Elena served as a priestess at Palmeni Temple. While she was there, King Ashnard had the heron laguz princess Lillia imprisoned within a room in the temple's cellar. Elena cared for and befriended Lillia, who entrusted the priestess with both Lehran's Medallion, as well as the melody of the Galdr of Release. With the medallion in her possession, Elena fled her duties at the temple and, to safeguard it, fled Daein along with her husband Gawain.
The temple is the site of the battle in Chapter 22 of Path of Radiance, when Tomenami serves as head priest, and the temple houses the Ashera Staff.
After defeating Tomenami, Ike's forces locate the room that served as Lillia's cell, in which text is written on the walls in the Ancient Tongue. Reyson, as the most fluent speaker of the Ancient Language in Ike's party, reads it and discovers that it was written by Lillia during her imprisonment. Her words recount her time within the temple, her befriending Elena, and the safeguarding of the medallion with her.
