The Observatory

A specific type of academy, the observatory focuses on the stars and monitoring the sky. The observatory is often a tower, built away from city, with telescopes and a collection of celestial maps within the fortification. The people of Efre Ousel believe many answers are found in the night sky. (See chapter 3 on Cosmology.) It is up to the astronomers to make sense of the stars. It is believed by some that the menhirs maybe be oriented to celestial bodies, marking important moments in their continual journey across the sky.
