The Maps of Myrist

Sony Online Entertainment · 2002

The Skyshrine, known as Ilak Tas Gral to the children of Veeshan, was built at the western edge of the great scar by the first dragons Veeshan deposited upon Norrath. The dragon city resembles a pipe organ created by a craftsman that was either mad or brilliant. Hollow towers abound in a seemingly haphazard pattern, some being connected to each other by buttresses for support. These towers are wide enough to allow a dragon to maneuver and contain balconies for the dragons to rest and sleep on.

Of the towers that were built, only four towers remain intact; the rest were destroyed in conflicts waged between the dragons themselves. The four that remain are the Tower of the Lords, the Tower of Humility, the Mages Tower, and Veeshan's Spire. Near the bottom of the city and connected to Veeshan's Spire, lies the inner shrine. It is home to the lone remaining guardian of the city, Yelinak the snow dragon.

The Tower of Lords is crafted of mithril and gold. Designed to allow a full sized dragon to move through it easily, it is a maze of pitfalls. Now empty, it used to house the dragon lords of old. The main city contains both intact and ruined buildings, large enough to house the dragons that lived here in the past. The Mages Tower housed dragons that conducted the study of magic. Dragon studies are spread throughout the dungeon.
