With little to no modification to the drawing, it can either be considered a large, single-story domed chamber, or it can be considered two-story. If two-story, we could add a balcony over the external columns, as well.In my early design, I was actually elevating the windowed-level of the tower so it rose above the roofs of the other wings, providing the wizards a 360-degree view of their surroundings, but to do that would require a 40-50 foot structure (taking roof and foundation into account), and that would be difficult to conceal.However, there is one caveat there... although the covenant may remain "secret" early on, I firmly doubt that, without magical concealment, we can stay on that cliff, right next to a relatively well-travelled road, and remain unknown for the long term. If we, instead, aren't concerned specifically with remaining hidden, then height constraints need not be too grave a concern. As this is definitely not a fortified structure, we shouldn't need fear a military reprisal. And once the labs and sanctum are secured underground, we may very well be able to pull off the surface structure as simply a fancy villa for affluent scholars with a love of all things Roman.FYI: For magical enhancements for defense, I was considering having an underground room that brushes close along the bottom edge of the cliff, where the road passes, and have a magical Muto of the earth to allow anyone in the room to "see through" the earth, thus being able to watch the road without being visible themselves.
