The Crimson Spire
Eight hundred feet tall and two hundred wide, the Crimson spire is one of the most imposing structures ever constructed by mortals. It was meant to serve as a glistening beacon of hope and purity for the rest of the world to always see. Its a masterfully sculpted castle of white swirling marble. Red banners hang flowing in the high winds, and cherry trees are planted in a perfect line inside of the high walled courtyard of cobblestone. The doors and windows are painted a bright red, and rose bushes taller than a man line the interior of the halls. Noble ladies and men carouse the gardens and rooms in fine robes of silk and velvet. Rabbits and foxes sun bathe in the gardens while wizards cast spells of brilliant light on mithral braziers to illuminate the castle for the coming starry night. On the clearest nights, it is said that the castle becomes one with the heavens, for the marble is so wonderfully polished, that the stars can be seen glinting off the sides of the tower.
