Description

Cradled between four ancient maples, the main building, suspended amid a labyrinth of intertwining branches, forms a circular, nest-like structure with an open domed roof of translucent leaves, ideal for astronomical pursuits and magical rituals. The structure is barely distinguishable under the overgrowth of sagging branches and vines creating a dense, chaotic weave. Unstable, rotten, wooden floors hidden under layers of moss, are the habitat of the giant J'ba Fofi spider, weaving dense webs throughout the deteriorated interiors. Surrounding the central structure are round treehouses and inverse towers attached to each maple. These organic, pine cone-like towers have melded with the trees, though neglect renders them partially collapsed and unstable. These slightly more intact structures host remnants of lecture halls, dormitories, and laboratories. Wooden bridges, once enchanted for strength, now sway perilously, connecting the various elements of the college.

Appearance

The college is anchored by four majestic maple trees, each positioned at a cardinal point around the central building. These trees, ancient and towering, have wide, sturdy branches that reach out and intertwine, forming a living network that suspends the main college building in the air. The main building is circular in design, crafted from natural wood and enchanted glass, with an open dome roof of interlaced branches and translucent leaves. Wooden bridges reinforced with enchantments connect the main building to surrounding structures nestled within the branches of the maples, creating a breathtaking and magical scene.
