Question Title:	What are those things?
Category:	Backstory
Question:	Those things, the things in Arwic, along the roads. They're tall towers, and look like they may be a Aquaducts, or transport devices. I've also seen many of them lying broken on the ground all over Dereth. Maybe you could tell what they were used for?

Answer:	They are ruins from something Empyrean. At this point, I think Isparians have no idea what they were used for. Some roadway? Aquaduct? It is uncertain. I'm sure some Isparians who take the time to study them disagree with their purpose. In a similar way, we don't really know what Stonehenge was for. We THINK it was an observatory, or a calendar, but it's really all speculation.
