Basgiath War College is located roughly in the middle of Navarre and is the main college is built into the side of Basgiath Mountain in the Morraine Province. The building itself is split into two halves, the main lower portion dedicated to Scribes, Healers, Infantry and Administration. And the upper half, otherwise known as the Citadel, for the Riders Quadrant. The main building is built into the side of Basgiath Mountain, as if it were cleaved from the ridgeline of the peak itself. There are four roads that lead up to the fortress where they converge just on the grassy fields just beneath the main gate.The northern turret leads to the infantry ground level quadrant. The southern gate leads to the healers quadrant. The central tunnel leads to the archives and the scribe quadrant below ground. The entrance for the riders quadrant is nothing more than a fortified door in a tower similar to the infantry one with the exception that the riders have to climb up towards the citadel

The Citadel

The Riders Quadrant is located in its own separate Citadel high above the administrative building carved into the southern ridgeline. The enormous stone footings of the citadel rise up the mountain to the base of the structure and can be easily seen from the Parapet. The fortress looms behind thick battlements in an L-shaped formation of tall stone buildings that can withstand fire for obvious reasons. The walls around the citadel are ten feet thick and eight feet tall to support the weight of dragons who use them as a perch. The only opening within the wall is the opening that leads to the parapet which is elevated twelve inches above the gravel-paved courtyard. To become a Riders Quadrant cadet, Candidates must climb a turret, cross the parapet, and enter the courtyard of the citadel on conscription day.

Academic Wing

A four story building carved into the side of the mountain with a rounded end.

Battle Brief Room:

An enormous lecture hall with recessed flooring from which the teachers lecture. Battle Brief is the only class held in this circular, tiered, room that curves the entire end of the academic hall. It's one of only two rooms in the citadel capable of fitting every cadet, presumably the gathering hall is the other room, however the senior third years have to stand against the walls while the rest of the cadets sit in creaky wooden seats. There is a twenty foot high map of the continent mounted to the back wall that's intricately labeled with defensive outposts along the border and illuminated by dozens of mage lights that more than make up for the lack of windows.

The Sparring Gym

There are twenty sparring mats across the massive gym that consumes the flirt floor of the academic wing. One wall is made entirely of windows and doors that are left open in the summer to let in a cool breeze. Each squad gets one mat during assessment day, and there are three squads from each wing. The sparring mats are black and the sparring gym has wood-planked walls.

Professor Kaori's Classroom: Dragon kind lectures.

Has circular tables/desks so that he can project images onto the middle of each table.

Outdoor Locations

The Vale

The Vale is the valley behind Basgiath that is the dragons' home and they protect it from gryphons. Dragons eggs are laid at the Vale and it is their sacred hatching ground. Hatchlings and Feathertails, both terms for different stages of a baby dragon's life, are protected at the Vale until they are old enough to protect themselves.

Flight Field

The flight field, also known as the training field, is located at the top of the ridgeline that the Gauntlet is carved into. The flight field is inside a natural box canyon that's designed for dragons to land and take off from. In the afternoon sun the view is spectacular. with miles of autumn colored meadows, gold-leafed trees, and peaks rising on three sides (the fourth side, the valley entrance, is the narrowest part and is a steep drop off down to the gauntlet and the steep staircase beside it) Opposite of the valley entrance is a waterfall that rushes during runoff season. There's a dirt path that leads through the center of the valley used for presentation day, with a lingering odor of sulfur.

There are stairs that lead from the flight field to the citadel, however only cadets that have successfully completed the gauntlet may use them.

Unbonded cadets, healers, and any other non-rider personnel are not permitted onto the flight field.

The Empyrean is the governing body of dragons in charge of dragonkind.
