The Ivory Tower
The Ivory Tower is an important political and cultural achievement for the Human race. Comprised mostly of Ivory, this tower os the tallest building in Eternity. The First 23 floors of the Tower are for cultural festivals and meetings. The latter 28 are where important political figures stay. There are about 50 unused floors inbetween the political center and the King Suite floors. These are being renovated as there was a heated political dispute that ended in the opposing parties' blood being shed. These floors are still ornate and beautiful as the rest of the building, but they are off limits for the time being. The 7 floors above that are currently unused, though some speculate it is made for a king.

The area around the Tower is a stone wall reaching 15 meters high. Though not as thick as Eternity's outer wall, the inner wall is constantly blessed by those with the skill and Arcana to maintain it. A 70 meter courtyard fills the space between the walls and the tower. Within this courtyard are trees of different species. The most notable among the courtyard are the Cherry blossoms, which were saved from the Corruption that would have made them go extinct.

Politically, the 28 floors above the Culture center are where high-profile court cases are held, laws are made, and politicians fill their pockets with legally-questionable coin. Kitchens are located on every second floor from the 23rd, and provide warm meals and cold refreshments. Due to high fire hazards, only the best chefs and Arcana-users are aloud in these areas.

There may be more to this tower, and it's residents than meets the eye.

Past uses/roles
Many of the past uses for the Tower were mostly political, however during Early days in Eternity it was used as a shelter from the Nomadic raiders that constantly assaulted the young town from the south.
