The Vaulted Hall might also have been a temple. But I strongly doubt that it was the Vaulted Hall of St. Caspodi prior to the fall of Whitewall. I suspect that the reliquary was installed there after the fall by Baron Sanuel or his liturgists.

Sure, but I suspect most of those are player characters! I think that the worshippers of St. Gerlant and St. Caspodi at (post-1621) Whitewall are nearly all Rokari from Seshnela and Maniria (Baron Sanuel is a Manirian Trader Prince afterall) and not Heortlings or Esvulari. I'm curious about the post-1622 history of Volsaxiland - somehow I doubt that Whitewall remains a mercenary garrison for long...
