Sovereign Spire
Julian Vane's dark mirror to The Forge-Keep, a symbol of hoarded power and combat-meta dominance.
Sovereign Spire stands as the ominous dominion of Julian Vane, a rival builder who exploits the System for absolute rule rather than freedom. Serving as a dark reflection of Elias's Forge-Keep, this location embodies the 'rulers' thesis where power is strictly hoarded and extorted from those beneath it. It represents a stark contrast to the ideals of liberation found elsewhere in the world.
