Sanctuary (Blood Omen 2)

this page refers to the Blood Omen 2 location; for the Blood Omen Incantation see Sanctuary (incantation); for the Soul Reaver location see Sanctuary of the Clans .

Sanctuary was the headquarters of The Cabal, the Vampire resistance to the Sarafan. It was featured in Blood Omen 2 and was visited several times by Kain through the course of that game.

Umah first told Kain of the Cabal and Sanctuary in Chapter 1 : The Slums, but it took until Chapter 3 : The Lower City for Kain to discover its whereabouts from the Cabal Contact news vendor. The vendor told Kain that Sanctuary was hidden under the Blue Lady Curios shop in the eastern part of the district. Deactivating the surrounding Ward Gates, Kain was able to enter Blue Lady Curious and proceed down to Sanctuary. Here Kain found the Cabal and their leader ,(a mysteriously revived) Vorador, who would send Kain to the Bishop of Meridian in the Upper City, in an attempt to save Umah from her fate in the Sarafan Keep.

Kain would return to Sanctuary several times throughout the course of Blood Omen 2; after saving Umah in Chapter 5 ; after being knocked unconscious and saved by a Cabal Vampire in Chapter 6 ; and lastly after freeing Janos from The Device in Chapter 9. On each return, Kain would invariably get new instructions from Vorador.
