编辑“Shrines to the Old Gods”

{{version|3.2}}{{Eventsnav}}
Shrines to the Old Gods is an anomaly event chain triggered by investigating the ''An Asteroid, Carved'' anomaly that can appear on asteroid celestial bodies. Uniquely among event chains Shrines to the Old Gods can lead to an empire shifting ethics. It should be noted that shifting ethics will not change civics, possibly invalidating them until the government is reformed if shifting will remove a prerequisite ethic.

|event_text = [[File:Evt mining station.png|center]]<br>Science Officer [science ship scientist] has reported back with the [science ship name]'s findings at the Percipient's shrine. They recognized early on that a text in some logographic script is inlaid in the walls, heavily distorted by the layers of translucent lacquer.<br><br>Initial attempts at unscrambling the text, relying on the raw processing power of the [science ship name]'s computers to reconstruct the text from plain images, proved fruitless as it was simply too distorted to place in any known lingual family tree. Next, the crew of the [science ship name] attempted bombarding the lacquer with light of varying wavelengths and intensity, but no beneficial reactions were observed. [science ship scientist] apparently considered physically separating the lacquer from the inlaid text, but realized that the strange glyphs would doubtlessly have been made misshapen to begin with, only to assume their proper shape when viewed correctly through the lens of the lacquer.<br><br>Science Officer [science ship scientist] was about to call the mission a failure when, looking up as they irritably paced along the edges of the circular space, they realized that discrete lines of cohesive text were momentarily forming before their eyes, melting away only to be replaced by new lines.<br><br>Not long after they had the ceiling, walls and floor imaged in a spiral pattern. Texts from other shrines should help us piece it all together.
