Entering the Akadaemia you walk along a beautiful, broad, tree lined avenue. You’re directed to the left to enter a large lecture hall, the entrance to which is titled The Words of Mitron. One half of the hall is dominated by a huge and strange monster in a tank, the creature is the size of a four story building, and radiates a sort of menace. It’s surrounded by people of all characteristics, robed and masked but still distinct from each other. Many are measuring things with what looks like magical devices and writing down their findings. Others are in clusters debating the results of their work. There is some tension in the air, but mostly people seem calm.

On the other side of the hall is a man in a black robe and perhaps familiar red mask at a desk, which is piled high in reports, with more figures constantly bringing and taking away files and crystals and other things for him to look over. Between reviewing what’s brought to him and speaking to some who approach, he seems to be working on a document of his own.

The Aetheryte shard is near the entrance should you wish to teleport somewhere else.
