Is Azarath Associated With Raven?
At the moment, the meaning and significance behind this location is still a bit vague, though there’s plenty of hints as to where they are going with it based on the source material. The Temple of Azarath, which is more of a city than a temple located in Azarath, is an interdimensional realm between the planes of known reality. Raven was born and raised here, and her mother, Angela, also lived here for a time. Azarath was founded by Azar, a woman who persuaded a group of humans to join her in a world of peace and kindness. All forms of violence and aggression were abandoned to achieve this peace by dispelling all of their inner evil into the aether. Unfortunately, this evil merged and created the vile, demonic entity Trigon. In Titans, the show seems to be taking a slightly different path than the comics, making the Temple of Azarath some kind of nexus of power that will be used to once again bring Trigon, Raven’s father and evil demon, back into the world. The plot also incorporates long-time Titan villains Brother Blood and Mother Mayhem and their “Church of Blood” into the fray, linking them with the Temple and its occult powers. Titans looks to bring many twists, turns, and surprises this season, but at least we can answer the question of what is the Temple of Azarath.
