The structure housing the Shard of Omniscience stood apart from the main castle. Like Bluegate Keep, it was a formidable tower, nearly two hundred feet tall, with four imposing entrances. Small towers rose on either side of the gates, but their turrets seemed empty. A translucent, shimmering haze surrounded the tower, saturated with an almost palpable aura, keeping the chaotic swirls of dust, ash, and mana at bay.
"What kind of spell is that?" Jenna asked, gesturing to the barrier.
I gripped my horn, rubbing it gently as I considered the sight. "I think it's some sort of defensive measure from the Shard of Omniscience against the Mana Storm. It should be fine to pass through, though whoever's inside will be at full strength. We should be careful."
