The fifty foot square outer walls of this 5 story stone tower are completely covered in deep carvings of mathematical equations, astrological symbols, and arcane sigils of every size and shape imaginable. Each story narrows as the tower rises into the sky, and an obvious observatory can be seen atop, with strangely shaped brass devices that harmlessly reflect beams of glowing desert sunlight. The aging structure itself and the cramped city streets surrounding it always appear very well kept, though you don’t recall ever seeing a custodian of sorts anywhere nearby.
Inside, Xambaala’s most erudite scholars, philosophers, astrologers, sorcerers, mathematicians, and poets engage in deep debates and wild conversations while smoking very long pipes and drinking fine, locally vinified pomegranate wine.
The ground floor consists of a dusty old library with bookshelves that line the outer floor and a common sitting area that dominates the central portion of the main room. Here is where the most learned sages and savants speak of the mysteries they’ve viewed throughout the long night skies, endlessly declaiming the possible implications of such discoveries.
