Marsh Tower

From PathfinderWiki

The Marsh Tower, also known by locals as the Marsh Stone Tower1 or the "Tower of Empty Stones",2 is one of the aeon towers that Aroden placed around the Isle of Kortos.3 The tower is a 300-foot-tall mudbrick step pyramid with a flat 10-foot-wide top and four uneven tiers.45

The tower is located on the northern side of the Isle of Kortos, near the small town of Willowside.1 Its aeon orb was stolen by the Circle of Stones in 4710 AR, and the tower was subsequently inhabited by a splinter group of the Circle's nature priests known as the Empty Stones. The loss of the aeon stone accelerated the advance of the Welt, a blight that as of 4720 AR threatened to overtake the tower despite the efforts of the Empty Stones.6
