Visit Lernée, capital of the Kingdom of Milara!

Places to visit

Admire the results of our amazing mathematicians' work with art and architecture unique in the world!

As you enter the city, stop beyond its gate to take the stairs bringing you at the top of the city walls, the first example of titanic architecture in the world! Follow alongside this ancient path and wonder at the vibrations of the magic current running below your feet. This is the power that has fed the wards of the city since its foundation centuries ago, withstanding countless enemy assaults!

Walk until your reach the first node of the architecture network. There, stop and observe the façade of our Royal Mathematicians' headquarters. Its extraordinary murals and stained glass windows are covered with abstract art designed by the mathematicians themselves! Follow with your eyes the suspended bridges linking this building to the even more wonderful Royal Palace and its amazing wall sculptures!

During your stay, be sure to entertain yourself in the Duelling Arena to see our top duellers face each other in spectacular shows of skills and might! Then go spend your evening in the concert hall to listen to the sound of the titanic instruments designed by our mathematicians!

And do not forget to buy yourself a souvenir that will amaze everyone back at home by making a stop at one of our jewellery or instrument-maker shops on Royal Road! Even the small purse can partake in these wonders thanks to the mass production of selected devices in our royal manufactures!

Thanks <3 The stone music would be really awesome! I'm imagining it like the one that we shared on discord recently, but with a lot more depth and vibrations!

To see what I am up to: my Summer Camp 2025.
