The sleek and silent shuttle, a marvel of Astralis Academy's advanced technology, glided to a smooth stop before a vast, circular plaza.
Daniel, Lia, Ayra, and a surprisingly composed Olenna Houten stepped out, their boots meeting the polished obsidian-like surface.
The air here was different from the lively chaos of Riversouth; it was clean, crisp, and hummed with a controlled energy that spoke of immense power and profound knowledge.
Towering crystalline structures rose around the plaza, their peaks fading into the calm, sky-blue dome above.
Delicate sky-bridges made of pure light connected these architectural wonders.
Waterfalls cascaded down their sides, not of water, but of radiant, harmless energy, creating rainbows that danced in the ambient glow.
Lush, vibrant gardens with glowing, exotic plants from across the Verge bloomed in elegant patterns, their scents a rich blend of the strange and beautiful.
