Pillar-Watcher

The Pillar-Watchers of Kibwe are soapstone statues perched atop namesake pillars across the city. Legends suggest the statutes, which are shaped in the forms of animalistic humanoids, would come to life under times of great need, though this has never been known to occur. They primarily serve as language-neutral navigational aids within the chaotic city.
