 The widest bridge across the river and the most heavily trafficked, the Fourth Glory is Karash the Destroyer. A fortified gatehouse stands at each end of the bridge. Manned by armed priests and laity at all times. Only in times of need are the gates closed and each gatehouse has massive blocks of stone that can be dropped to stop anyone from crossing. The widest bridge across the river and the most heavily trafficked, the Fourth Glory is Karash the Destroyer.

-The Third Glory does not reveal its true beauty until the sun begins setting. Dedicated to Karash'​s love of [[lore:Lórion]] the bridge and its gates provide several fountains, reflecting pools, and foliage to offer lovers hidden places. Benches and railings provide places for lovers to public express their eternal devotion. In the evening it is not uncommon for marriage ceremonies to be held under Lórion'​s Arch.+The Third Glory does not reveal its true beauty until the sun begins setting.

 During the day the bridge is commonly used for foot and cart traffic moving between the upper and lower. The Pullman'​s Guild maintains a rope house that can pull heavy carts up [[atlas:​Districts of Bornheim#​Glory Ridge]] without resorting to the long switchbacks to the east. The temple collects a small donation from each cart that crosses the bridge. During the day the bridge is commonly used for foot and cart traffic moving between the upper and lower.
