[QUOTE="Yair, post: 2658143, member: 10913"] [None of this is set in stone, if anyone has a better idea, go ahead and post it.] The latter. In my mind, the clifftop is kinda like a deforested "tongue" protruding from the forest. The cliff is not high, and the forest hides everything in one direction, so the view isn't something to write home about. It is high enough that, with the lay of the land, the stone circle itself is hidden from sight from the main road that passes below it. If you build low building there and lower (towards the forest), you won't see and won't be seen from the road. If you go to the cliff's edge and take a peak, you'll have a good view of the road in either direction for a few miles, left and right. On a good day, you can make out some of the outlying farms of a village to the north. To your east are rolling hills and, in the distance, a river and lake. Fairly extensive. Nothing insormountable, but it is somehow tall. Consider that you were able to mount it with wagons, but only barely, and one got stuck. It is mostly gentle, with a few rough spotches, but as it is evident that you are climbing towards the cliff and getting away from the road you would have to be intentionally be going there. You wouldn't climb it if you are strolling along the road, unless you intentionally go into a path that you know will wind up taking you up towards the cliff, into the forest, and away from the road. But yes, you COULD have visitors that just followed their curiosity and reached you. Individual stones, no "doorway" or anything like that. Wide enough for about 8 magi to stand side by side in a circle, on the inside of the stones. Four huge boulders, sinking deep into the earth. There is also a "crest" or "crown" of a few smaller stones and a small upsurge in the ground, completing the circle. Stones, even pebbles, tend to attract to the crest, and there are some stones there that, though not as huge as the boulders, are fairly large (about a chair's size) and seemingly well anchored to the earth. It is complete, but the stones are rough and worn. Not really. It is believed the old magi of Rethra has it all figured out, but they weren't sharing. [/QUOTE]
