===Arch of the Stavennite Republic=== | |||
Four towering columns support the Arch of the Stavennite Republic, that rise forth from a highly | |||
polished obsidian walkway and form the foundation on which they stand. Residing between the columns | |||
and upon the walkway are three words formed completely of ruby shards - Loyalty, Strength, and | |||
Perseverance. Each column is unadorned and the obsidian colored marble which forms the shaft is | |||
completely flawless. The base of each column is formed from a richly detailed tail with each scale | |||
having been gilded with solid gold. The capital is ornately detailed with carved scales that curl | |||
outward to form the volute. Resting firmly atop the two columns is a smooth, black marble slab which | |||
forms the architrave. An immense stone demon with the body of a lion and the tail of a dragon is | |||
poised in a position of attack atop the architrave. The demon has two necks representing the two | |||
guilds of Stavenn, each neck topped by three fanged heads that represent the professions of each | |||
guild - united in purpose and strength upon one body. With no pediment to protect the demon from the | |||
elements it has been gilded to ensure that it remains in a perfect state. | |||
It weighs about 2200 pounds. | |||
