Temple of Light

The Temple of Light is a temple that appears in Sonic Shuffle. It is located in the center of Maginaryworld, a dimension created from dreams, and is the resting place for the Precioustone, a relic that maintains the existence of this world.

Description
The Temple of Light lies on an large flat rock that floats around in the void-like space in the center of Maginaryworld. The Temple of Light itself resembles a large lump made of intertwined gold and brown wines. It has three front gates, seven spires in different sizes on the top of the central structure that branches outward, and has a hole in the roof on the central structure.

Inside the Temple of Light is the room where the Precioustone is stored. This room is composed of several rows of large rings made from horizontal rectangular plates that are place on top of one another, forming a dome. The rings that make up the walls in this room are constantly revolving around themselves, and can be raised to give a full view over Maginaryworld.

History
For an unprecedented amount of time, the Temple of Light served as the safe haven for the Precioustone, where Illumina, the guardian of Maginaryworld, would reside and protect the important relic from harm. When Illumina lost sight of her own dreams, and split into Lumina Flowlight and Void, Void came to the Temple of Light and made contact with the Precioustone. His darkness caused the Precioustone to shatter, with its fragments being expelled from the Temple of Light and send to the far corners of Maginaryworld.

To save Maginaryworld from its inevitable destruction, Lumina send out a distress message to other worlds. As a response to her message, Sonic, Knuckles, Tails and Amy were send to Maginaryworld, and were dropped into the Temple of Light upon their arrival. Inside the temple, Lumina explained the threat Maginaryworld was facing, and Sonic and the gang agreed to help restore the Precioustone and save this world. The group then departed the Temple of Light to look for the Precioustone fragments in other worlds.

After the Precioustone had been rebuilt and brought back to the Temple of Light, Void came back to the temple as well, seeking out the Precioustone anew. Inside the temple, Sonic, Lumina and the others confronted Void, whose growing loneliness and despair turned him into a monster, and he transformed the Temple of Light into a dark space. Sonic, Knuckles, Tails and Amy managed though to defeat Void in the ensuring battle, returning the Temple of Light to normal. After the battle, Sonic and the others managed to lift Lumina out of her growing pit of despair when the Precioustone would not recover, and had her accept Void as a necessary part of herself and dreams. Understanding that both positive and negative feelings were needed for dreams to exist, Lumina fully restored the Precioustone inside the Temple of Light and rejoined with Void, thus recreating Illumina. As Illumina expressed her gratitude for their help, Sonic and his friends left the Temple of Light and returned home.
