Tower Square
This side of the square is the southern section of the Tower Square.
In the center is the walled off White Tower. To the south a large
boulevard opens up leading to the Southharbor. To the north you see
the southern gate of the Tower grounds. The square continues east
and west.
A large banner rests here, depicting a map of Tar Valon.

Perenelle says 'So, the Dark invaded the Tower earlier, Tolza Sedai.'
Perenelle curtseys before her.
Perenelle says 'Yes, Aes Sedai. Gaidin Draz drove them off.'
Perenelle says 'Then he and a few others chased them up past Fal Dara.'
Tolza nods in agreement.
Tolza says 'Very good.'
Tolza looks at Perenelle.
Perenelle says 'Though they did get into the library. Hopefully the books survived.'
Tolza says 'Im sure you checked when you sorted the books'
Perenelle senses Tolza connecting to the True Source.
Perenelle says 'I sorted them before they got here.'
Tolza nods in agreement.
Perenelle says 'I'll go check now though.'
Tolza says 'Very good.'
Tarlomen's Gate
Wide enough for fifteen men abreast, the gates allowing access to the Tower
grounds are iron bound. The gilded Flames of Tar Valon set high up in the
thick timber have been polished to a shine that a Tinker would find
satisfactory. A cool river breeze wafts through the gate, making the trees
and bushes in the grounds to the north rustle and sway. The pale shaft of
the White Tower lies to the north, reaching a hundred spans into the air.

Before the White Tower
The White Tower looms to the north, rising over a hundred spans into the
sky. Trees and bushes, both short and tall, are sprinkled around the path
and throughout the Tower grounds. The path is covered by pieces of small
white gravel and bordered by white bricks. White steps, at least a pace
deep and slightly arched in the middle, lead up to the White Tower.

Bend in the Path
A wide, twisting graveled path runs from the south-western gate towards the
pale shaft of the White Tower, which is at least one hundred spans tall.
Woods of oak and evergreen that could have stood far from any city enclose
the path, creating a verdant green oasis that absorbs all sounds from the
city of Tar Valon which encircles the entire Tower and its grounds.

The Great Square
A great square stretches forth between the White Tower's main building and
the Sunset Gate. Between the domed wings that contain the Accepteds'
quarters, tall steps lead up to a spacious landing on which majestically
carved doors form the entrance to the Tower. Two bronze lamps, shaped like
women holding their hands aloft, the light coming from a burst of flame
appearing in each set of palms flank the stairs.

Flagstone Yard Outside the Barracks
A wide, flagstoned yard lies before a gray stone building that looks like a
huge boulder which houses the Tower Guard. In the yard, rimmed holes in the
flagstones allow trees to grow, providing shade from the sun. A thick wood
of oak and evergreens encloses the yard on three sides, with twisting
graveled paths running through towards other parts of the Tower grounds.

Path Passing the Spring Garden
To the east of the main path between the White Tower proper and the Tower
Library lies the Spring Garden. Situated on a triangular plot of land
between two walls, it has been planted with shade loving plants. Hydrangeas
in white, pink and purple mingle with bristleboughs with thin, finger-like
leaves. Bleeding hearts, with their tiny pink blossoms drooping from
delicate three pronged compound leaves have been planted in rows.
A sign stands between the flowers in the garden.

On Wide Marble Stairs
Wide marble stairs with deep steps rise to the second and main floor of the
Great Library of Tar Valon. The priceless tomes being kept above ground
level is no doubt to account for any major floods of the Erinin River which
encircles the island of Tar Valon. A pair of tall carved doors on bronze
hinges open up to an oak lined stone path that leads to the Tower proper.

with railings depicting a variety of leaves and fruits lead up to the upper
floor, where some Brown Sisters keep their quarters. Several large desks,
each with a gilded tablelamp and writing supplies stand in the hallway,

Repeated turnings of the wheel will slide that shelf and all those next to

Center of the First Depository
Tall bookcases of a dark, polished wood line the walls of this long, oval
room. One of the biggest depositories in the library, the First Depository
is dedicated entirely to history. Several sliding bookcases have been
installed on the center floor, a large, spoked wheel set into each,
allowing them to be slowly rotated to open an aisle. A small warning sign
is printed above the wheels. Each shelf has a large plaque set near the
top, with a series of numbers that presumably details its contents.

In a Hallway
Floor tiles in blue, brown, gray, green, red, white and yellow have been
laid in repeating rows throughout the broad main corridor of the library.
Tall stone carvings flank the doors which give access to the separate
depositories the library consists of. Two desks have been placed back to

Western Hallway
Tall, arched doorways of pale white stone, set with intricately carved
double doors allow for entry into the depositories north or south of the
central hallway of the library. Stone ribs, carved with a plethora of
leaves, interspersed with seven-spoked wheels and the Flame of Tar Valon,
reach up to form a vaulted ceiling at least thirty feet tall.

West Wing of the Library
Colorful floor tiles laid in repeating rows of Ajah colors cover the floor
of this wide hallway, which forms the center of the Great Library of Tar
Valon. Evidently the work of Ogier stonemasons, the walls of pale white
stone have been masterfully carved to show huge figures, depicting
fancifully garbed people and strange animals ten feet tall or more. A pair
of carved double doors on bronze hinges open up to the north, while a
smaller room with a plain door marked with a brass sign lies to the south.

Underneath the Central Dome
The two hallways meet at a cavernous rotunda which is crowned by an
enormous dome of pale white stone. Stone ribs reach out from the top of
wall at the four corners of the intersection, meeting to form a circle
which serves as the foundation of the dome. To the east and west lie long
straight halls with many doors. A large room with open doors lies to the
north, while a hallway leads south, towards two massive double doors.

A pair of double doors containing small square glass panes keeps draft and

each with a gilded tablelamp and writing supplies stand in the hallway,
allowing the librarians to prevent visitors to the library from taking any

Path Passing the Spring Garden
To the east of the main path between the White Tower proper and the Tower
Library lies the Spring Garden. Situated on a triangular plot of land
between two walls, it has been planted with shade loving plants. Hydrangeas
in white, pink and purple mingle with bristleboughs with thin, finger-like
leaves. Bleeding hearts, with their tiny pink blossoms drooping from
delicate three pronged compound leaves have been planted in rows.

A large expanse of bare ground at least fifty paces across and nearly twice

under the trees stand wooden stands holding quarterstaffs and practice
swords made of strips of wood bound loosely together, and a few real swords
and axes and spears. A large gray stone building lies to the east, home to
the warder students and those warders who are not sharing quarters with
their Aes Sedai in the main Tower structure itself.

thick timber have been polished to a shine that a Tinker would find
satisfactory. A cool river breeze wafts through the gate, making the trees

Tarlomen's Gate
Wide enough for fifteen men abreast, the gates allowing access to the Tower
grounds are iron bound. The gilded Flames of Tar Valon set high up in the
thick timber have been polished to a shine that a Tinker would find
satisfactory. A cool river breeze wafts through the gate, making the trees
and bushes in the grounds to the north rustle and sway. The pale shaft of
the White Tower lies to the north, reaching a hundred spans into the air.

The White Tower looms to the north, rising over a hundred spans into the
sky. Trees and bushes, both short and tall, are sprinkled around the path

white gravel and bordered by white bricks. White steps, at least a pace
deep and slightly arched in the middle, lead up to the White Tower.
