Built directly over the stream from the Falls of Maharesh, the Great Palace is a glorious construction, made up of two major wings that flanked the stream, with a wide hall that contained the Essential engines within it.

The hall itself is lit by pipes of clearest glass, in which water flows. All water that enters the Great Palace is given a slightly silvery luminescence, so that the entire structure is constantly lit by flowing, refracting water. Any of these pipes could be rendered immaterial to everything but water, allowing people to reach their hands through the pipes and even submerge their faces for a drink.
