Ebon's Blade

“	"He built a tower, the biggest to tallest tower...This tower went as high as the eye could see! When this tower had been completed it looked so magnificent!"	”
 	—Excerpt from Broken Blade 	—Excerpt from Broken Blade
Ebon's Blade was the tallest of the five Marsh Towers in Swampwater during Dragonhollow's Second Era.
It served as the base of operations for the business tycoon Ebonblade.
Ebon's Blade reached over a hundred and twenty meters above the muddy bogs, making it the tallest man-made structure in Swampwater and second in height only to the Grove. The riches of its owner were built into the structure itself, broadcasting to the entire Swamplands how wealthy he was. Hundreds of coal, lapis, and redstone blocks inlaid with gold and diamond flourishes made up its towering walls. The base was protected by rows of cacti.
After rebuilding the trade empire he'd lost when the First Bloodmoon destroyed his holdings and everything else in the Lakelands, Ebon began gathering allies and searching for ways to expand his reach. The bandit Wiz offered to join his cartel, bringing with him fellow sellswords KlutzMacher and Samuel Bobby. Ebon rewarded him by inviting Wiz to live inside Ebon's Blade tower and granting him access to the supplies within.
However, Ebon had been deceived—Wiz's offer was cover for his burglary of Ebon's Blade. The bandit stole not just the valuables inside, but demolished the tower itself, leaving Ebon destitute and embarrassed. After Eris refused to smite Wiz and return the stolen goods, Ebon furiously departed Dragonhollow forever.
The tower ruins eventually fell into the hands of AJ, who dismantled what was left and re-purposed its foundation into his Pipelayers Local 69 office.
Ebon's Blade was the subject of Broken Blade, a book written by MaccaMan during his bid to become the Priesthood's next Loremaster.
