Carved from polished stone flecked with shimmering crystal, the walls of the academy reflect the ever-shifting hues of the astral plane, casting an ethereal glow across the surrounding mountains. Its vast halls echo with the whispers of ancient spells, the soft rustle of robes, and the flicker of arcane light from countless floating sconces.
