This grand staircase extends up into the highest reaches of Aroxa Tower.
Made of beautiful white marble carved with exacting details, a continuous
history of the Alyria's great events runs up the inside of each rail. The
sections up here are burned and charred beyond any recognition. Some of the
stone has become so hot as to begin to permanently damage the epic mural
carved into it. The work nearest the top of the stairway is almost
completely gone; the stone melted off the walls themselves. The last floor
is just above and the stairs continue down to the rest of the tower.

This spacious room is the top floor of the Tower of Aroxa. One look at
this room answers many questions about what happened in this tower. This
room has been so completely charred, that the dull grey stone that makes up
the walls and floor has become completely black. Several small fires rage
in corners of the room, fueled by molten stone and cinders from the
furniture that must have once filled this room. The smell of sulfur and
smoke is overpowering. There can be no doubt that Aroxa has been invaded by
a dragon. Strangely, one stone remains untouched - it has been decorated
with a painting of a golden koi. The stairs lead back down to the rest of
the tower.
Paenyr, princess of Aroxa, stands here awaiting her rescue.
