The planet of Aspindar is a world dominated by towering spires that stretch towards the sky. Each spire is made of a magical material that never corrodes or weakens over time, many having living quarters that resemble bulbous structures attached at the top. The people of Aspindar are ruled by powerful wizards who use their magic to control the weather and maintain the balance of the planet's ecosystem. The wizards are respected and feared in equal measure, with their power and knowledge commanding the loyalty of the people. However, there are rumors of a growing rebellion among the lower classes, who seek to overthrow the wizard rulers and establish a more egalitarian society.
