This is an elevator so you don't have to climb stairs. Stupid mountains.

Virtual cache
Tower of Beleem.
|
Pretty day
To be looking out at the bay/ocean.
|
The tower was supposed to be open.
But Alana's attempts to storm the tower weren't as successful as one might hope.
|
Some church thing.
Probably old.
|
Pretty big.
|
With statues
You really can't swing a dead cat and not hit something that is old, big and church related.

It was rather ornate.

Inside the castle.
There were alot of these squares in it, I think 8 or 9 of them. This one was only 1 story but some are up to 3 stories.

Tombs perhaps?

Orange trees
Proably should have picked some.

I love ceilings.
