So called because it is doomed to crumble once ten thousand magicians pass beneath its walls. The city is down to its last hundred (but nobody knows the precise number and access is restricted). The ILH vol 1 makes the point that many fear it rests on top of the head of a true magician.

Unlike other EWF sites, it is accessible to humanity because it store their knowledge of sorcery rather than draconic wisdom.
