The Real Magic Tower (12)

On the far side of the hall, a section of enchanted globes and planar maps drew attention. These globes rotated in perfect harmony, displaying not just the material realm but also overlays of adjacent dimensions. One map showed a faint correlation between the missing towers and areas where the veil between worlds was thinnest, leading to whispered theories that the towers might have been pulled into another plane entirely.

The atmosphere in the Hall of Cartography was one of focused determination, but a subtle undercurrent of anxiety could not be ignored. Every shimmering spot where a tower should have been was a stark reminder of the unknown, and the researchers understood the implications of their disappearance. If the towers, each a beacon of magical stability, could vanish without warning, what did that mean for the rest of the world?
