Tower of Agni Kunda

Tower of Agni Kunda - or the Tower of Firepit - is an island that is located far to the south from the southern coast of India. The island is rocky, bare from all plant-life that can't grow in there and it is always volcanic. The island's origins are mystery, but the most obvious conclusion is that the island had born in some ancient underwater volcanic eruption, in which the lava that rose to the surface of the ocean was cooled and solidified into solid and hard piece of land. The following eruptions have re-shaped the island's shape for the thousands of years and occassionally even mostly destroyed it and created it again. The island's surface is full off the steaming mud ponds and widely spreading cracks that lead deep down to the magma chamber beneath the island and from the cracks rises the toxic volcanic smoke, steam and fumes. The volcanic activity on the island is occassional but noticeable, as lava keeps pouring out from beneath of the island from every corner, which causes the island to slowly grow wider and wider. The tower, as well as the island itself, received its name from the most largest hole located in the heart of the island, which too leads deep down to the magma chamber, in which the lava has rosen nearly to the surface. In middle of the said fiery lava pit is towering a large, angled and slightly tilted rock tower, which ends to the forked tip with two curbed horn-like pointed rocks facing each other. The tower's angled and jagged walls are full of ledges, which size, width, space, shape and height levels varied. The ledges became more and more larger, wider and even separated when they reached to the same level as the opposite edges of the pit. The only way to get into the tower was the long arched stone bridge, that was the only thing that connected the tower with the edge of the pit. Inside of the tower is dozens of labyrinthine tunnels, dozens of large chambers and caverns and hundreds of various-sized caves, and the air inside of the fortress is burning hot and toxic.""The island and the tower were originally deserted and abandoned and was rarely used for anything. However, the island's tower was taken into supposedly brief use by the Night Pride when the traitorous white lion named Jadogar was sentenced to be locked in the tower as a punishment for his crimes at the Tree of Life, which was the attempt to harnest the Power of the Heart of the Tree of Life to take over the Tree of Life by force. Jadogar was sealed inside of one of the tower's caves and left there to rot for the rest of his miserable life. Jadogar spend there locked up for unknown number of days in the timeless darkness, starved, sick, critically weakened and at the verge of dying. However, when Jadogar expressed his regrets of never achieving his dreams of becoming the King of the Tree of Life or achieving his revenge against all those who he believed having wronged him and would give anything in order to achieve them both. This stirred the attention of Shaitaan, the Evil Entity, who offered him a chance to achieve those goals by freeing him from his prison, in exchange of his own soul. Jadogar, however, demanded more in exchange of his soul. He demanded both mastery of the dark sorcery and Shaitaan's methods to create the minions of his own. Though somewhat reluctant to agree with the terms of the mortal lion, Shaitaan agreed nonetheless and bestowed Jadogar with only a small amount of the dark sorcery, what he himself had to practice in order to master it properly, and taught him the methods to create the Animorcs; the most simplest of all of his minions.""After being freed from his prison and granted with the dark magic, which Jadogar started to practice with for the next following years, Jadogar took his former prison has his home, realm and the headquarters of all of his operations. And as his mastery over the wild, unpredictable and dangerous dark witchcraft improved and increased, Jadogar tested them in the island itself, manipulating the elements of earth, magma and water, and magically reshaped the whole island into a frightening-looking fortress, surrounding the mainland with the tall and jagged wall-like cliffs and tore open the seabed over the magma chamber, releasing the lava in the sea and thus creating the land bridge that connected his island to the mainland. The use of the dark sorcery on it also increased its activity and caused the massive cloud of smoke, steam, gashes and fum to form above of the island, blocking the sunlight from reaching to it. Jadogar also took the advantage of the methods how the Night Pride had imprisoned him there when he started to use Shaitaan's methods to kidnap and turn the lions and other carnivorous animals, such as tigers, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, bears, dhole, wolves, hyenas, vultures, snakes, monitor lizards, crocodiles and so on, then locked them inside of the caverns of his tower and let them to starve there, until they went mad and at each other, losing themselves completely, before he magically took over their minds and thus re-creating Animorcs as his own army."
