History
The Singing Towers were established, not built. The structure was already there when early Asir people found it. Its strange nature attracted scholars and it naturally evolved into a place of study. Today it stands as the greatest center for the understanding of what magic is and how it can be used to forward the lives of people.
In the year 223 Asch Figthorn secretly cast a curse on the location to spread The Wandering Plague to destabilize the location with the best shot of finding a cure. Though a cure was, in fact, found.
Tasir visited the location on a personal quest before seeing an old friend suffering from the plague and assisted in holding off a physical embodiment of the curse. He vowed to find a cure for the plague and after allying with Kaulder, Wren, and Finch. The headmaster of the tower enacted a plan to destroy the large air crystal to send the cure into the air across the area.
Geography
The pillars have strange shapes carved into them that, when the wind blows at certain directions through them, create beautiful tones giving the location its name.
