In the center of the city is a large silverstone castle, and the second layer of walls. The castle is the oldest and largest castle in the land, and by far the most beautiful. The 75 foot tall sloped walls tower over the city, the castle reaching just over 400 feet. It can house thousands of people. Each nation has their own unique lodgings for their students and diplomats. The Order of the Grey Guard base is also situated in the castle complex . The Order, numbering close to a thousand men, occupy the numerous spiral towers, trebuchets, and other defensive buildings located in the castle.
Magic is subtle in Exscillon, but that is not so at Nieugarten. The city is alive with magic. At night hundreds of floating magic lanterns light up the city. Tapestries come alive with movement, and magic could be heard like a fleeting sound far off in the distance. The headquarters of the Magic Order is also in the city. Legend states that its halls are home of many magical relics of old, giving the city a magical feel to it. Something that you can really feel.
