Skyfall Ward

Originally devised by Niaross †, the Skyfall Ward, was an ancient and mystical barrier, had long been maintained by the magic of The Ancient Pillars. These pillars, scattered across the realm, were relics of a bygone age, their power waning with each passing century. The Ashen Cult's scholars discovered that a concentrated burst of volcanic energy from Ember Peak could shatter this barrier, paving the way for Ignatius's arrival.
