Good news!  Near-permanent illusions using Xeuá should be possible.  That should solve the problem of sustaining illusions, if we should choose to use that method.  

Quote: <Mina> okay rayne...basically...is it possible for xeua mages to make illusions permanent or near-permanent?

<Dreamress> I don't see why not, Mina.

Dreamress is Rayne, BTW.

Ok... thats cleared up... Whats next?

• Inner tower Appearances: Illusions sustained by Xeuá magic.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

Well, hexagones like on my layout? All similar in the ground structure, later additions and ornamentations different, representing the subject of the tower?.

[Mina]

Sounds good to me.  But, just going back to the inner towers for a while...what are their appearances going to be like?  Do the illusions basically give the appearance Xarl mentioned in the entry on the site, or the incomplete one in the forum, or something else entirely?  

[Arcuar]

Err, maybe I'm too late to join in, but may I work on the non-magical buildings, such as the Garden, Stables and such? It's more in my reach than the sophisticated matters of the great magical towers. But please? May I do that? *does his puppy eyes trick and begs*

With non-magical I mean the last which were named by Avalotus, these:

The Garden House
The Grand Dining Hall
The Guest House
Storage and Stables
House of Fine Arts
Physical Education
Recreation Area for Music and Arts
Recreation Area for Physical Education
The Club House (was the Herb and Plant Garden)
Ornamental Garden and Academy Gates

P.S.: Rayne, why haven't you added me to your Hotmail account?

Well, the design of the Academy is more of a group project, so perhaps you could post your suggestions here and let us discuss them instead?  

[Arcuar]

The Grand Dining Hall:

The Grand Dining Hall is a long room, with six tables. Each table represents an Element and Ecuá and Xeuá. Each table is colored in the colour appropriate to its Element. An interesting fact is that there is a hierarchy to who sits where, which is defined by level, and the place is defined by the tone of the table. The darker the tone, the lower the level of mages who sit there. This symbolizes how "close they are to enlightenment". So it is obvious that the teachers sit in the center, with the newest apprentices moving outward. The reason for this is the grand chandalier in the center of the tables. In the center of the Grand Dining Hall is a chandalier, with appropriate gems for each Element. The part that points to the Earth Element has emeralds in it, the part that points to the Fire Element has rubies in it, and so on. The center of the chandalier holds a quartz gem, with a candle in it. The light of the candle is reflected to all sides, and gives each Element it's own light in the respective colour. The chandalier is one of many priceless artifacts of the Academy, and is the centerpiece of the Grand Dining Hall.

Arcuar, I don't want to chase you away, but have you looked at the design back then in this thread? The form of the dining hall is pretty fixed, it is a long stretched building which connects two of the outer towers. So no such things as three circles.And I doubt, that the Arch mages will eat there. We definitly should concentrate on the inner towers first AND how the outer towers look OUTSIDE.
The same is true for the garden tower and other things. I would propose however, write your ideas down - and then when we come to it, we will see, what we can use of your ideas?

[Arcuar]

D'oh! Sorry :(

[Kikhku]

I do like the chandalier though ^_^  

[Arcuar]

I now redid the round piece into a box-shaped. The chandalier stays, however. Thanks, Kikhku!

[Calyx Redwood]

Actually what she ment (kik here ~.^) was not to worry about the dining hall at all, and that once we figured out what the towers looked like we could worry about the dining hall.  Remember, the towers could effect what the dining hall looks like (is there a place for water from the water tower to flow to provide the students with fresh water, etc)

[Arcuar]

Once those are discussed, I shall further improve the Grand Dining Hall. But the Grand Dining Hall is mine, 'kay? *Smeágol imitation* Nobody steals my preciousssssss! RAARGH!
