Ark & Dove Cathedral

The  is a small settlement that's inhabited by Point Lookout tribals.

Background
This massive cathedral was named after the first two settler ships that made landfall at Point Lookout in colonial times. Jackson founded the Point Lookout tribals and made Ark & Dove Cathedral his headquarters when he found the Mother Punga and got gassed by it when he took the seeds. Tobar the Ferryman found him on the ground knocked out, cut open his head, and took a part of his brain. Jackson then wandered, dazed and confused from the gas and having a piece of brain taken from him, to the abandoned church, which he converted into the headquaters for the cult. He wanted to centre it around the punga fruit that he thought had "opened his mind".

Exterior
It's an old church with a brick wall surrounding it with a gate at the entrance. Outside there are some refined punga fruit and wild punga fruit with Jimson, Croatoa, and other tribals guarding the front. To the northwest is a well that leads to the Sea Cave as well as the Ark & Dove Resting Grounds.

Interior
Inside there are special breeding pots to grow refined punga fruit. At the back of the church are Woodrose and Nadine. Other Tribals wander around inside as well.

 * When you enter the Cathedral and talk to Nadine first thing (and select all of the dialogue options), the Cathedral can become locked. As there is no key, this means that you get stuck.

Behind the scenes
Aside from alluding to the biblical story of Noah's Ark, the cathedral is named after the Ark and the Dove, ships that brought British settlers to the newly-chartered Maryland colony in 1634. The expedition was organized by Cecilius Calvert, who was the first proprietor of the colony and surely meant to be the ancestor of the in-game Calverts.

Although there is no actual cathedral near Point Lookout called "Ark & Dove", there is a real Ark and Dove Presbyterian Church further north in Odenton, MD.
