INSIDE THE SHIELD

Lyrassa is one of the greatest surviving Aquarian cities, built vertically around a deep ocean trench. Crystal towers descend toward darkness while living coral districts rise toward warmer water. Entrances exist in every direction because Aquarians have little reason to respect the surface world's obsession with floors.

The city is famous for universities, magical observatories, bioluminescent gardens, and enormous air-filled halls where surface visitors can conduct diplomacy without drowning. Lyrassa has become more crowded since the shield contracted, and entire displaced schools now occupy buildings that were once considered temporary lecture space.
