Spirituality is one of the Eight Virtues.

Spirituality, founded on all three principles in equal parts, is the concern with one's inner being and how one deals with truth, love, and courage. It is also the awareness of the love that unites one's own inner being to those around one. A centre for rangers, Skara Brae is a city immersed in the study of spirituality, a gentle towne of kind, thoughtful, and generous people.

The shrine of Spirituality is not situated on Britannia. Instead is is deep in the Ethereal Void, with access only through a moongate.

[edit] Interesting facts

  • In Ultima IX, the inhabitants of Skara Brae were the only city to withstand the influence of the columns. But it didn't matter in the end, because the Guardian destroyed the city with a firestorm.

[edit] Blackthorn's law

During Blackthorn's tyranny, Spirituality was turned into a law: "Thou shalt enforce the laws of virtue, or thou shalt die as a heretic."

[edit] Spirituality in Ultima IV

Meditating at the Shrine of Spirituality will give these insights;

  • "Seek ye to know thyself. Visit the seer often for he can see into thy inner being!"
  • "Meditation leads to enlightenment Seek ye all Wisdom and Knowledge!"

[edit] Spirituality in Ultima V

"'Tis now thy sacred Quest to go unto the Codex and learn the neglect of one's Spirit!"

"To forsake one's inner being is to abandon thy hopes for thyself and thy world."

[edit] Spirituality in Ultima VI

"Throughout this varied and eternal world, soul is the only element. The wealth of the spirit is the only true wealth."
