Spires of Creation

Standing around 12 stories tall, these Spires are made of Akariean Silk and are completely smooth. When they were first discovered, they had no form of entrance or opening. 
There were twelve spires found throughout the land south of The Endless Expanse on Zanfear known at the time as Zilcan. As the Demons of Zilcan began to form settlements, they formed them around these Spires, intrigued by the fact that they seemed to be impervious to damage. For generations, the demons continued to try damaging these spires, attempting to show off their power in the process. In 3743, a demon Prince came to the Material Plane just to test its strength against one of these Spires. After the first few failed attempts to damage the Spire, the enraged demon unleashed its full force, annihilating the surrounding settlement and leaving nothing but a crater where the spire once stood. Some say that this Spire was never actually destroyed but instead was moved to another plane of existence due to the force of the attack; people speculate as to the whereabouts of this Lost Spire. 
In 4013, suddenly and without warning, all eleven of the remaining towers opened and a large entrance formed at their base. Out of the Spires poured hundreds or thousands of confused and disorientated humanoids. From the five towers in the west of Zilcan, giants appeared of the five main giant species: Storm, Hill, Fire, Frost and Stone. In the east, the three towers spawned White, Red, and Blue Tieflings, The remaining three towers contained Aasimar Protector, Scourge, and Fallen sub races. This was known as The Awakening. After a few years of fighting, the Giants formed Rexthen, while 600 years later the Aasimar rebelled and formed Cad'Lear. 
There are two additional misidentified Spires, with bases that lie beneath the waves to the south of Zanfear, off the coast of Zilcan. They are known as Greater and Lesser Shark Tooth as algae and later other sea fauna were able to cling to the Spires and cover the Akariean Silk in a layer of plant growth, obscuring their true nature. From these Spires Merfolk and Tritons were birthed and now inhabit the extensive reef that their Spires are a part of.
