Lore
A Porthole To The Aetherial Sea
In the year 1311 of the Sixth Astral Era, scholars from the northern nation of Sharlayan discovered natural caverns that descended deep into the subterrane of the Dravanian hinterlands. Judging the site ideal for observing the aetherial sea—the heart of Hydaelyn Herself—they constructed an observatory, the Antitower, and proceeded to study the fate of the very star. As the tower underwent expansion, so too did the little settlement that serviced it grow. This settlement came to assume the role of a waypoint for successive scholarly expeditions to Eorzea before eventually blossoming into the city-state of Sharlayan.
Generations later, as the exodus drew near, there were calls for the Antitower to be demolished in order to prevent its misuse. However, its immeasurable academic value ultimately prevailed, and instead it was locked behind a slew of protective seals, whose care was left to the lone individual who chose to remain behind, the Archon Matoya.
Zuro Roggo
Boasting extraordinary size and girth, this poroggo familiar fled its Sharlayan creators during the exodus and sought to establish a kingdom of its own kind inside the Antitower. With a voice lauded as divine by its peers, it croons out songs that brim with magical power.
Calcabrina
This doll-like construct was created to protect the sanctity of the Antitower. Steeped in the energies of generations of mages, the powerful magicks instilled in this guardian have worked certain transmutations upon its form, which it conceals by dividing itself into lesser dolls, Calcabrina and Brina.

In the depths near the aetherial sea, the laws of nature are in disarray and the hold of gravity weakened. To facilitate movement in such an environment, the Sharlayans employed arcane platforms and teleportation devices.
