Tower of the Moon

Article written by Ambro


The Tower of the Moon can be found at the center of the Dargonesti Elf city of Takaluras. The tower appears as a huge spiral shell that rises more than six hundred feet. It is made from silver mother-of-pearl, green jade shell, black obsidian, red crystals from ruby oysters. Smaller spiral towers are connected to the trunk of the tower. The base of the tower is connected to a large lattice coral dome that is the top of a large citadel. The citadel is made of types of eggshell, jade and marble. It houses dolphin stables, military barracks, and the royal residence of the Speaker of the Moon. The tower is heated by thermal vents.

Legend says that the Tower of the Stars in Silvenost and the Tower of the Moon are sister towers, but they are not alike in form or appearance.
