A recent yet notable addition to Levithal’s arcane quarter, Aethermark Components caters to discerning spellcasters and scholarly mages seeking the precise ingredients required for complex spellwork. From diamond dust to powdered silver and iron, Aethermark offers a meticulously curated inventory drawn from across Afia—and welcomes new stock from adventuring clients. The shop specializes in both everyday components and rare materials often difficult to acquire through standard means. If it exists in a spellbook, Aethermark either stocks it or is seeking it. Newly opened, the store actively encourages adventurers to sell in components harvested during expeditions. Notices posted in the window list specific items currently in demand, each with generous pricing. While it has not yet reached the fame of older establishments, Aethermark’s precision, elegance, and ambition have already earned it the attention of Levithal’s magical elite.
Ancient Stone Circle
At the edge of Mistmeadow, nestled in a serene clearing, lies an ancient stone circle. The towering, weathered stones are covered in moss and etched with faint runes that shimmer gently under the moonlight, like stars brought down to earth. A quiet sense of calm pervades the area, as if the forest itself is at peace. On rare nights, soft chanting drifts through the clearing, mingling with the gentle rustle of the trees.

The inn exudes quiet luxury, offering only a handful of private suites, each enchanted to match the guest’s personal tastes in décor, sound, scent, and even ambient lighting. Self-playing harps fill the hallways with gentle melodies, while enchanted fireplaces in each room respond to a guest’s mood and warmth preference. The inn’s elite clientele enjoy unparalleled service provided by polite, animated constructs—silent but attentive, and more than capable of handling delicate security matters. The Starlight Lounge, its private dining hall, serves rare delicacies and vintage arcane spirits, often under exclusive reservation. Business, diplomacy, and secrecy thrive within its walls.
Chamber of Radiance
The Chamber of Radiance is the spiritual and magical heart of the Sanctuary of the Radiant Conflux, serving as both a holy sanctum and a conduit for divine communion. Here, followers of Aurelina gather to meditate, pray, and study in the presence of her most concentrated essence. The chamber is used for solemn rituals, sacred rites, and the contemplation of celestial truths.

Emberforge Foundry
Tucked into a quieter corner of Levithal’s eastern quarter, the Emberforge Foundry is renowned among locals and visiting adventurers alike for its unmatched combination of traditional smithing and subtle magical reinforcement. Run by a fiercely proud dwarven artisan with a reputation for no-nonsense precision, the Foundry serves as both a working forge and a bespoke workshop. While not as overtly magical as many establishments in the city, Emberforge has earned deep respect for its blend of durability, artistry, and enchanted craftsmanship. Many come seeking repairs, custom commissions, or simply to watch the master at work—each visit carrying the scent of iron, smoke, and fire-wrought dedication. The Emberforge is also a gathering spot for those who prefer grit to glamour.

Farmers, fishers, and artisans set up market stalls, selling fresh produce, woven goods, and minor enchanted trinkets. At the center of the square stands the Wishing Spire, a waist-high stone obelisk covered in ancient runes. It pulses softly at dawn and dusk, and villagers believe that leaving a small token—be it a coin, a flower, or a whispered wish—brings fortune or insight. During festivals, enchanted ribbons weave through the air, and glowing fireflies of blue, violet, and gold drift lazily overhead, adding to the square’s mystical charm.
Glimmergate
At the heart of Glimmerbrook, near the central square and the banks of the shimmering river, stands the Glimmergate—a smaller but no less impressive arcane gateway linking the village to Levithal. Crafted from the same sleek white stone as the Threshold Spire, its archway is laced with softly pulsing silver and violet runes, resonating with the latent magic woven into the land itself. Unlike its grand counterpart in Levithal, the Glimmergate hums with a gentler energy, reflecting the village’s more tranquil nature. Rather than an ever-active portal, the Glimmergate requires activation by a simple incantation, spoken aloud by anyone who wishes to use it. This ensures that it remains a controlled passage rather than an open door for uninvited guests. The connection to Levithal allows villagers to trade, learn, and travel with ease, reinforcing Glimmerbrook’s role as a thriving, magically-infused community.
Hearthlight Haven
The Hearthlight Haven is known to most as a quaint, affordable inn offering quiet respite to travelers and workers alike. It’s favored for its cleanliness, warm hospitality, and tranquil charm—an ideal resting place away from Levithal’s arcane grandeur. But behind its unremarkable hospitality lies a carefully crafted deception. The inn is a front for the Shadowsworn, a clandestine guild of assassins operating under a veil of perfect normalcy. Beneath the inn’s floors, hidden chambers and soundproofed corridors form a secret complex where missions are orchestrated, recruits are trained, and secrets change hands in whispered tones. Enchanted locks, illusion-concealed doors, and arcane seals ensure that only those initiated into the guild ever glimpse this hidden world.

Hollow Hearth
At the heart of Glimmerbrook stands the Hollow Hearth, a sprawling, open-walled communal hall built from smooth, river-polished stone and enchanted oak beams. Its defining feature is the Everfire, a great, golden-hued flame that dances endlessly in a massive stone hearth, radiating warmth and comfort without ever consuming wood or growing too hot. The flame’s color subtly shifts depending on the emotions of those nearby—flickering pink in joy, blue in sorrow, and silver in deep contemplation. The Hearth serves as the village’s central gathering place, where farmers, artisans, and travelers come together to share meals, stories, and music.

Even in the quietest hours, there is always someone resting near the fire, drawn by its reassuring presence.

The Luminal Chapel is a tranquil sanctuary designed for meditation, prayer, and quiet reflection. Situated deep within the temple complex, it provides an intimate space for individuals to seek clarity, commune with Aurelina, or escape the bustle of Levithal.

Sorcerer's Ruin
A short walk beyond Glimmerbrook’s edge lies the Sorcerer’s Ruin, the weathered remnants of the ancient mage’s long-forgotten tower. Little remains of the original structure aside from jagged stone foundations and scattered fragments of intricate carvings, but the land itself still hums with untamed magic. Floating shards of stone hover gently in the air, tracing slow, lazy orbits around the ruin. Strange pulses of light ripple through the ground, and plants growing here seem to take on faintly shimmering hues. Locals view the ruin with a mix of reverence and caution. Some claim the air here crackles with invisible power, while others whisper of strange occurrences—unexplained laughter on the wind, ghostly figures flickering in and out of sight, or travelers finding themselves momentarily lost despite clear paths. The village children dare each other to step into the ruin at night, hoping to glimpse the past or awaken some hidden spell.
Starforge Antechamber
Accessible only to the most trusted artisans and clerics of the temple, the Starforge Antechamber is a sanctified workshop where divine magic meets mortal craftsmanship. Artifacts forged here are more than magical—they are sacred, each bearing the touch of Aurelina through the influence of a celestial relic suspended above the forge. It is both a place of precision and reverence, where creators work not just with metal and spell, but with purpose and prayer. Each item completed in this chamber undergoes a ritual blessing, ensuring it serves the goddess’s will.

The Abandoned Cottage
Once a bustling home in Mistmeadow, this empty house now stands as a melancholic reminder of a life long gone. Dust coats the floor and the air is thick with silence, save for the occasional creak of wood. Shadows dance in the corners, hinting at stories untold.
The Arcane Brew
Tucked into one of Levithal’s most prestigious districts, The Arcane Brew stands as a symbol of refined magical indulgence—a high-end tavern and lounge frequented by wealthy nobles, respected wizards, and those whose coin purses and curiosity are equally full. This is not a place for rowdy drinking or daring wagers, but for whispered conversations over exquisitely enchanted cocktails. Guests come for the ambiance, the exclusivity, and most of all, for the carefully brewed arcane-infused drinks that turn each sip into a minor magical experience. Every beverage on the menu is a work of magical artistry. Elira Davenhall, the tavern’s enigmatic owner and a former enchanter of high standing, oversees a staff of elegantly dressed servers and magically gifted bartenders.

This orb radiates a faint, calming light, ensuring that all within its influence speak only the truth. Golden runes encircle the orb, reinforcing the spell and preventing tampering. Although the zone of truth spell ensures honesty, clever advocates must weave arguments based on fact rather than misdirection, and judgments remain reliant on interpretation of Velarion’s intricate laws. It is said that no lie has ever passed through the Chamber’s enchanted walls, making it a p
