The Colonnade of Seshat El Medin

When the university of thoth was first being constructed in order to speed along construction several columns were “borrowed” from ancient sites and built into the university. This led the columns in the university to be in a rather eclectic collection of styles. Over time students began to identify specific columns as meeting locations and thus began the association between the universities body and columns. In 1255 to celebrate three hundred years since the universities founding a student proposed building the colonnade a line of freestanding columns each built in a style reminiscent of each of the kingdoms that students hailed from. At the time there were seven columns, one for each of the Hilaen kingdoms, one for las islotay and one for wakatakte. In the ninety years since, four more columns have been added, one for the third Astorian kingdom, two for kingdoms beyond the peninsula and a fourth for the Adair. The storms that frequent the island often do damage to the columns and as they have been destroyed the columns that replace them have become more and more grandiose, the modern colonnade is a work of majesty that’s also become a centerpoint for the campus with buildings sprouting up around it.
