Building the Tower

To give an indication as to how big this tower is intended to be, Lincoln Cathedral, started in 1092 (and not due to be finished until 1311) reaches over 500 feet tall and is easily one of the tallest buildings in Mythic Europe. The Pharos lighthouse at Alexandria, fabled as it is, does not pass even 450 feet. To put that in perspective, the tallest peaks in the Alps exceed 15,000 feet, and this Great Tower is designed to exceed even that scale, though perhaps not within the lifetime of any one magus.
