## History

### Description

The Attic is a large floating blue crystal anchored to the city of Alivast by four smaller crystals, two of the chains is now taught with the crystals floating alongside the large, central crystal. Inside the Attic appears to be its own realm where Lys was able to manipulate the environment. The attic appears to have no visible entrances but on a few occasions its shown the entrance to people such as the Unexpectables, and possibly Taylor, Brorc, and Captain Canary.

### Biography

The Attic is as mysterious as it is powerful, it has many mysteries and little answers however we can account for its history within Alivast. The Attic is, or is a fragment of the body of a dead god, and a fragment of said god known as Lysalivast lived within the attic for many years, possibly millennia. When Captain Canary discovered the continent of Alivast he somehow was contacted by Lysalivast, proceeding to name the continent and city after them. Several years later the next known individual to be contacted by Lys was Brorc, the nature of their meeting and the reasoning is unknown but we do know that Brorc has not spoken of it. The Unexpectables have also journeyed up to the Attic where they met Lys and were given visions to aid them in defeating Stillhavity. Unfortunately, the Unexpectables inadvertently caused the destruction of Lys as he expended the bulk of his power saving them from Stillhavity's wrath when a series of mishaps put them in an untenable situation.

After Lys was gone the chains slacked and the Attic listed to the side signifying that a part of the Attic had died with Lys, however during a fight with a white dragon one of the crystals were uprooted showing the structure wasn't fully dead, and once the party healed the mask of Lys the Attic went upright again.

Once the party acquired Ith one of the chains went taught and the uprooted crystal was floating above signifying they are one step closer to something.

A second small crystal came to float up above the city when Task bonded with Aos and defeated Darkus.

### States of the Attic

The Attic has been in a few states through the course of the show, each state seen so far will be listed as such below

* The Attic's base state with the large blue crystal floating and tethered by four chains into the earth
* The chains going slack and the Attic tilted on its side once Lys had died
* The Attic tilted and with slacked chains but one of the crystals uprooted via a white dragon
* The Attic upright again once the mask was healed
* The small crystal of Ith floating free from the earth on a taught chain when they had returned from the Realm of Discord
* The small crystal of Aos also floating free from the earth on a taught chain when they had returned after defeating Darkus
* The small crystal of Kai, floating free from the earth on a taught chain when they had returned from the Elemental Plane of Fire

## Trivia

* When the Unexpectables spoke of their experiences with Lys and the Attic their words made no sense to other listeners such as Remy and sounded like white noise or gibberish. As things have progressed, it appears this is no longer the case. The reasons and implications are unclear.
