Enclave

From TLJwiki

The Sentinel Enclave and Library lies on the outskirts of Marcuria, near the ocean. It has a distinctive dome with a large stone dragon coiled around it. Underneath the dragon, a large circular diagram resembling the symbol of the Balance is inscribed into the stone. When April reassembled the Stone Disk, she used the diagram and magical fire from the dragon's mouth to bind the four pieces together. Beside the diagram, a small stairway leads down from the dome to the great Library underneath.

The Library is cared for by Minstrum Yerin and is considered one of the finest in the Northlands, if not in all of Arcadia. It is circular, with bookshelves around the outside. In the centre of the Library is a large pool of water which can be drained with sluices: it is directly below the centre of the diagram and cools the Stone Disk when it falls through. The Enclave is also used to store some of the more valuable Sentinel artefacts: the Stone Disk was originally kept there, and other objects may be as well.

Books in the Sentinel Enclave include:

• Secrets of the Draic Kin by Minstrum Elyak
• Travels in the Northlands by Jemein the Discoverer
• The Silver Spear of Gorimon (a historical tale)
• The 8th Scripture of the Balance
• A book of Arcadian Folktales
• A Book on the Maerum
• A Book on the Alatien
• The Complete Annotated History of the Northlands
