Do you know about the god Surya that appears in Indian Mythology? He's said to be a sun god. There's a story going around that there's a temple where he was sorshipped. If you don't mind, i'd like you to investigate it. Go to Goa now and gather some information.

1. Object of faith
Surya is a god who has been worshipped from some time here in India, and is originally from Persia. The library in Calicut may hold some records. I suggest you ask the scholars there..

2. Temple dedicated to Surya
The temple of the sun god Surya? It is said to have been built by Narashimha Dhruva of the Ganga Dynasty as a commemoration of their victory over the Muslims... My books should cointain some writings on its architectural traits. Please search them.

3. Chariot of the god Surya
...The temple is dedicated to the sun god Surya, and was built in the shape of the symbol of the sun's movement through the sky, a giant stone chariot. The entire temple is shaped after Surya's chariot, and the fundations at the bottom have twelve wheels engraved on either side...

4. That which wheels represents
The 24 wheels, 12 on each side, are said to symbolize time. Twelve represent the number of months in a year, and twenty four the number of hours in a day. I believe the temple was deep inland to the southwest of Calcutta. Peraps you should prepare and make your way there?

5. Location of the temple of the sun god
The temple dedicated to Surya appears to be to the southwest of Calcutta. Leave the gates of Calcuta and search for it. If you see any building that resembles it use "Recognition".

Konark Sun Temple ★★ (Religious architecture) Exp:260 Fame:100
Temple of the sun god Surya. The whole temple is an image of Surya's chariot. It is said to have been built by Narashimha Dhruva I of the Ganga Dynasty to commemorate the defeat of the Islamic invaders.
I just got this quest after I learned indian languages.
That might help make the quest appear more often, but I saw this quest for ages without Indian languages before finally getting around to doing it.
