Sandorei

Sandorei rises like a jewel from the endless dunes of the Scarab Desert, a city where arcane brilliance and desert resilience converge. It is the beating heart of the Kalen’Tir civilization, a sanctuary of wisdom and mysticism, and the southern bastion of The Covenant’s power. From afar, its silhouette gleams under the sun—a skyline of golden domes, crystalline spires, and sandstone towers, shimmering like a mirage against the harsh desert winds.

The Arcanum - THE Great Library of Sandorei

The Arcanum (or the Great Library of Sandorei) is a colossal tower rising at the city’s heart, visible for miles across the desert. It is a center of knowledge, and houses the largest collection of scrolls, crystal archives, and etheric manuscripts in Aetherion. 

The Arcanum is not merely a school—it is the pinnacle of arcane learning, where scholars and mystics refine their understanding of elemental forces and etheric flows.
