Western Tower

One of the two towers that act as bastions to the foulness that is the blasted lands. Under constant threat of invasion from armies of monstrous creatures and shadow walkers those who abide in the tower are among the toughest any nation has to offer.
Whilst called a tower the term does little do describe the magnitude of the structure, a man-made mountain of sheer walls, murder holes and artillery the towers have held the creatures of darkness at bay for generations.
Standing about a mile high and 500ft at the base the tower sicks out of the landscape. Narrowing down only 50 foot at the top of the tower it is lined wiht arrow and ballista slits all around. On the top level there is a large spy glass and beacon ready to be lit. the only way in and out of the tower is up a narrow winding stair case that leads to a heavily armoued steel and oak clad door that is built into the rock of the tower itself.
Inside the tower is one long spiral stair case to each of the attack slits, a pully dfriven lift makes its way up and down carrying supplies and people quickly. There is also an underground section which houses the living quarters and provides refuge should the tower fall as it enable the enactment of the towers self destruction. There are no shadows anywhere insdide the tower and all faces must be on show at all times to prevent incursion of the shadow runners.
