Tower of Twin Truths

While small shrines devoted to Nethys can be found throughout the city in magical schools, arcane shops, libraries, academies, and anywhere magical study takes place, the Tower of Twin Truths is a stark monument to the worship of Nethys. At 250 feet in height, the alabaster walls of the tower loom starkly over the surrounding neighborhood, its facade emblazoned with the mask of Nethys and its crown adorned with a bowl of constantly churning mist that glows brightly at night and flickers like black smoke during the day. The tower’s ground floor holds a small public shrine to Nethys, while its upper floors are given over to the temple’s caretakers—high priest Arn-Diowynn dwells on the uppermost level. The bulk of the tower’s holdings lie in its underground chambers, where a large library of various magical theories and studies is kept. The library itself has two wings, each of which holds books that are represented in the other wing by opposing texts, for just as Nethys personifies the constructive and destructive nature of magic, so to do the holdings of the Tower of Twin Truths present both sides of any one topic’s nature—positive and negative, good and evil, right and wrong.
