Valgate

The seat of power in Elandra.

The alabaster spires of what must surely be the Magister's castle were visible for miles as I approached the city, but their true scale wasn't apparent until I saw them towering above the domed walls up close. A chill ran through my spine as I entered its famous protective field. It's amazing how pristine the city looks already.
