This is the highest tower in the entire castle, accessible by a tremendous amount of stairs. The interesting thing about this tower is, you can only reach the top if you have no desire to. If you want to get to the top, you never will; the stairs will just keep winding up and up, forever, until you get exhausted and give up. However, for someone who's just wandering about, with no particular location in mind, they will reach the top before they know it, and be treated to an incredible sight of almost all of Asgard Academy.

Scriba glided up the stairs calmly, pulling her deep purple hair back into a long pony tail. She smiled, to herself of course since no one was around to see her. Her robes fluttered behind her majestically in waves as her feet tapped against each stair in an effortless asscention. She reached the top and stared out the window of the tower. She leaned against the window pane and let the wind gracely touch her face and hair. Her eyes were a bright yellow, perplexed, curious and lost in thought.

From down below, she could hear other footsteps, echoing up the stairs... Soon, a figure, covered in a thick oiled-hide cloak appeared, stopping as he saw Scriba. His face was obscured by the large hood.
"Ahh... I didn't expect to see anyone else up here..."

"Oh sir, hello" She turned away from the window and looked at her new cloaked visitor. "I come up here a lot, when I need to get away. I find the stars hypnotizing. I don't know what it is about their rhythmic twinkling...it calms me.." Scriba shook her head out of a partial trance and smiled.
"What brings you up here?"

"About the same. Minus all the poetry."
He had a short, barking laugh. Pulling back his hood, the moonlight reflected off his almost-albino hair, the blue tinge in it being magnified and almost making it glow, as well as his large, green eyes. She recognized him- the Maester of Blue Saturnalia.
"But it is nice up here, eh?..."

She cleared her throat and blushed a bit turning away. "Yes, it is nice up here. I apologize for the poetry, it runs in my veins I guess." She was embarrased to have the maester here and have been so superfluous in her words. His laugh made her grin and she hopped up on the window rim and hung one slender leg out the window.
"How are the students? Have we gotten any interesting ones?" Scriba looked at him out of the corner of her eye. The yellow irises gleaming with cat-like curiousity.

He reflected her grin, although it was a little lopsided, goofy, and cocky...
"No idea. I'm not big into paperwork. I prefer to check 'em out personally... But then again, you're not a student..."
(I gtg for now, but be back on later! ^ ^)

"ah..." She swung her other leg out over the window sill and sighed.
" I think it's going to be a rough year. Call it cat-like intuition. Hmmm"
She ran her hand up her arm and said nothing.

"Is that so... Good. Sounds interesting. I don't like it when things are too boring..."

"I don't know, I light the boring sometimes, gives me a chance to relax. I suppose I should get back to the halls, but I just couldn't resist this view."
She swivelled her legs into the room and hopped off the ledge and started towards the stairs.
"You want to join me sir?"

"Oh I dunno it's really up to you, I was just going to go for a little stroll and check out the perimiter." She arched her back and got on all fours and shrunk into a small tabby cat.
"Come on then, I want to be sneaky and see what the little tricksters are up to..." She bolted off down the stairs in an instant.

Albiore dashed after her down the stairs, trying to keep up. "Geez, slow down kitty... Not all of us can shapechange, you know..."

She meow-cackled and reached the bottom with ease and trotted off into the halls of Blue Saturnalia. Her paws padded lightly against the cobble stone and she sat and waited for Albiore to catch us. Deciding to use her time wisely she licked her paws and tail.

Down the spiral staircase, a chill swept about, as she saw the stairs freeze over into a slide of solid ice, bringing Albiore shooting down shortly after. He slid into the hall, and the ice disappeared.
"I have a few tricks of my own..."
