So the Royal Arena is in the Outer City? When was that? I know that the Vocators dot-Junior were over there, but Vocators are everywhere.And when did anyone say the Royal Arena was in the outer city, because I don't remember reading that.

Literally, the first post about the Royal Otharion Theatre. Go back and reread it.

Edit: "Eventually the main street led to the city's inner wall,"

"Either way she followed the rest of the crowd around the walls, she had expected this arena to be inside but apparently it was in the northern reaches of the city nearer to the harbor. "

Guys, Lillian is still just hanging out in the arena, looking for her buddies.

A shame they were evokers themselves, or starry might've let them keep their relics.

I felt obligated to remind everyone that starry is kind of an asshole?

[Ellri]

Thanks for the answers, Sparks. Nice one on the tunnel stuff.

I know, I'm trying to think of how to get him out of the temple once they've opened it, after he inevitably turns on us.

"Notice i did not mention what our relics were." He said smugly. "While i am happy to tell you my powers, it is not wise to tell your enemy exactly what they need to take from you."

Dangit, I was wondering wheter to actually show you or not xD Haha Marcus trusts anyone who isn't from Da-Hyun too easy

We rather like visual aids, so we decided to make up a simplified sketch of Amaryth. Just the walls so far. We tried mostly sticking to your numbers and specifications, but the topography did not fully agree.

some specs:
Outer city wall:
10m tall.
12m thick (ish).
No gates yet (adding those later)
One tower.

Inner city wall:
Mostly 15.240m tall (some places needed taller to make sense. Yes, that is equal to your fifty feet)
10m thick.
No gates yet (adding those later)
Eight Towers.

Fortress wall:
Varying height. over 100m some places, a bit over 57m in the lowest place.
10m Old Kingdom Foundations.
Thickness is 30m.
Again, no gates yet.
7 Towers.

Topography:
Height of tallest terrain point inside fortress is 710m above lake level. But that is 2545m from the shore.
Yes, that can seem pretty tall, but we kept the slope pretty low. For a height increase of about 60m in the outer city, you'll have to go 250m inward.

Anyways, here it is:

Well done, and I forgot to mention nothing is built up against the walls for obvious reasons, like clear line of sight for the defenders, so there is a broad lane (mentioned in the same post I referred Willy too) which goes around the inner city wall.

[Guilty Spark]

@All Bark, solid point. I like that post.

[Ellri]

That makes sense. Even when things are built up against walls, those things tend to easily burn when needed to.

We personally don't like sticking anything close to walls, simply because its not reliable that it can be removed in time for the unexpected invasion. Mind you, burning it down can be fun at times.

looking at that image, where would you place the gates, sparks?

It'd be funny if they actually took him up on that offer, like:
"Sure, no problemo. Artemis, help me for a moment, if you take his legs and I take his arms..." *swing him overboard* "Well, that's one evoker less on my list! Team Twinkledee to the resqueee!"

"I'd ask if you know how to swim but that would ruin the point."

[WilsonTurner]

Ellri, what are you using for that image?

[chukklehed]

Artemis is offended that you even imagined he'd work with the order. Hmph!

I'll let you know that I laughed out loud because of that sentence. Thanks for making the other people in the library look at me like I'm a retard

Marvelous, now he's in a small boat in the middle of the lake with two people who are mad at him xD

Edit: He could have been forced to?

Starry gets his first dramatic speech.

They grow up so fast
