...or the "10,000ft Tower". Anyway, it's a TALL tower! I did a preliminary sketch of the idea, and will be fleshing it out in the next few days. Think Dwarves...and Minotaurs! Anyone who plays RPG's with me knows that I love alternate races as PC's, and Minotaurs are definitely an alternate race!
'The 2 Mile Tower is home to Dwarves that have abandoned the underground for a high-riding home. Perhaps driven out of the mountains by some menace that is long-forgotten, we shall never know, as the Dwarves go about their daily lives in this vertical fortress they apparently created from what appears to be a former mountain. The debris is piled around the base of the tower, with no effort made to move it. The base entrance is known only to the Dwarves in the tower, as well as the Minotaur who have taken refuge there as well.'
In the area that I will place this tower, the race of Minotaur are a beleaguered, beaten-down race. Slaves to the Elves, a group of them escaped after the Elf leader, Masairis, ordered the destruction of any youngling Minotaur children to ensure the race didn't overpopulate and run the city short of food. They found refuge with the Dwarves in the tower, who promised them equality in return for their participation in the upkeep of the tower, and help with day-to-day operations.
Many of the Minotaur there have pursued new and wondrous things like art, math, and religion, to name a few.
This is only the beginning...!
