#7 Pennarin Jan 12, 2005 23:34:33	The tower is made of one material, I don't recall which but I think its the halfling living-stone, and the forstress on top is made of another one, I think alabaster. (Prism Pentad) There is a water pool next to the fortress. (Prism Pentad) A spiral staircase is either found within or wraping around the tower from the outside, its never descibed. (RaFoaDK) Rajaat modified the tower after taking over it, so some aspects of it may be additions from the original design. (Many sources say this)

But in some other PP novel, where Sadira is in the Gray and manifests a Tower construct, I think that construct has a spiral staircase around it...
