Paerasjatan's Spire (building)
Magic: magic_icon +150
Located in northern Kashirya upon the banks of the shallow Lake Kunsrovsar, the Paerasjatan's Spire is the easternmost tower whose location has been firmly confirmed and documented by Aversaria. Long held as a place of immense spiritual power by the various Avastya Mahani faiths endemic to the region, the area around the tower is clustered with temples, shrines, and small communities of more academically minded Magi and researchers.
As with most of the other known Towers, Paerasjatan's Spire emits a dangerous aura of Magical energy, inducing Overwhelmation, Exposure Sickness, and death. Unlike many of its counterparts the energies radiating from Paerasjatan's Spire are somewhat unpredictable, with the exact radius at which it is no longer safe to be near the Spire having shrunk and grown dramatically over the millennia. While countless generations of Kashiryan scholars have devised creative theories to predict and explain this fluctuation - ranging from attempts to pin it to the centuries-long greater cycles of Aervalr, the correspondance of various constellations, or even the patterns in the flights of certain species of sparrow - none have managed to predict its expansion or contraction with more than a vague accuracy. As such, the territory within the tower's deadly reach is littered with the stonework, artifacts, and unrotting bodies of countless previous generations of researchers, pilgrims, and priests, all slain by the sudden and unexpected expansion of the fickle Spire's aura.
