Sylvaris Aegis

Sylvaris Aegis is a marvel of living architecture where white stone battlements merge seamlessly with massive ironwood trees. High above the forest floor, walkways connect hollowed trunks while the lower levels are protected by magically hardened brambles. It serves as the primary defense against northern incursions, blending elven elegance with brutal military efficiency.

History

Built during the Age of Petals to stop a creeping corruption, the fortress has stood for millennia. Originally a research outpost, it transitioned into a militarized zone after the Great Schism. Recent years have seen internal strife as traditionalists clash with those wanting to aid the exiled kin living in the shadows of the fortress walls.

Age of PetalsThe Weave-BindingArchitects used elven song to merge stone and wood.
