The DragonHaven's Aspects

The DragonHaven is located on the brink of the Hoofpound Plains to the far west, close to the Forest, because it is the Guardians' jobs there to take care of the menace from its source.

Like all Havens, great and small, the DragonHaven is but a typical one. Seven gigantic walls surround the DragonHaven in a great circle. The walls increase in size as one walks through them, black as obsidian, and guarded by huge portcullises and gate locks. Covered with a magical powder that renders enemy forces dead, the thickest walls are 20 feet thick, while the least is 12. The largest wall rises a sheer hundred feet. These walls and the cunning traps laid for enemy forces were created by the dwarves.

The DragonHaven is a massive town in all respects. In the outer edges, there are the farm holdings; then, as one goes farther inward, one sees that the DragonHaven is completely self-supporting, with small ranches stretched out around the inner perimeter. The third circle of commerce is the town itself, a bustling city of activity and ten thousand normal people who serve the Guardians and their Bondeds.

In the very center rises Dragonseye Tower. Actually a looming castle, this tower spears the sky like a pointing claw. It is surrounded by lower turrets and is a massive facility.

The Dragonseye Tower is named aptly. At the very apex, there are the quarters of the resident Queen Dragon, Devyn Rintilin. Just beneath her lair there are the separate lairs of other dragons, with room for up to sixty of them. Currently, it is filled with but fifteen. Below the dragons, there is the Griffin quarters; due to Griffin rarity, there is only thirty lairs; four of them are occupied. The third lowest quarter is that of the servants (The Mind and Mission Bound share rooms with their Guardian). The fourth lowest is that of the Unicorns, whose number does not include many of their flying brethren.

The very lowest level is the Hatching Grounds (little more than a very large box of sand) under which the magma pools run.

On the level ground, in what is referred to as the "gardens" for its special plants, there is a massive pool deep and dark. There, the Sea Serpents surface, one at a time. Below are their homes; their Bonded live in small compound houses around the lip of the pool. On these grounds, the unicorns run with Sentients to get their exercise.
