===Ancient Gate of Luna:=== |
|||
The Ancient Gate was built during ancient times, it has managed to keep it’s appearance almost exactly identical as it looked in ancient times due to magic used by the Sacred Order. This is the exact tower where the Great Order is located, a fitting place as it has the ability to look over the entire city. Whilst it’s bottom levels are accessible to normal people and often a centre of trade, it’s upper levels are only accessible to those of the Great Order. There is no easy way to get up to the upper levels ,due to the lack of stairs, without extremely hard effort by climbing the exterior, however this is next to impossible as attempts have been prevented by the city guards. The gate is presumed to hold the ability to open gateways to realms people cannot normally access, providing the one hoping to access the realm has enough power physically and mentally, enough willpower. Ancient gates were created by a nation from ancient times called Praetora which has since collapsed, the city Luna is the only known remaining city from that old nation. |
