ClockworkEclipse's Lair

Of the students milling about, one catches your eye. They bear a semblance to the Grand Scholars, though they appear younger. The alignments certainly seem to match, at least. You follow them deeper into the spire, up into a spiral of lecture halls, passes to small hovering islands for other classes, and eventually what appears to be offices. Soon enough, one of the passing students reveals this is where most scholars and aides settle in, ready to help students when they're not hosting classes.
