Tower of High Sorcery of Wayreth

Situated in the Forest of Wayreth, near the Qualinesti border, it is the only tower to have survived the Fourth Age, undamaged, at its original place.

During the Lost Wars, mages from the towers of Daltigoth and Losarcum carried, through magical portals, everything they could to the Tower of Wayreth. When the Lost Wars ended, and peace was established between the Kingpriest and the Orders, the mages were allowed to take all the objects from the Tower of Istar to the Tower of Wayreth. Thus, the Tower of Wayreth became the sanctuary for mages in Ansalon.

The Tower and the Guardian Forest are located in another dimension. When both dimensions collide, the Forest and the Tower can be seen in Krynn. The collision point varies according to the Tower's will. For outsiders, it seems as if the Tower and the Forest moves. The Forest and the Tower can appear in a 500-mile (800 km) area, limiting with the Icewall Glacier to the south, Abanasinia to the north, Northern Ergoth (also known as Qualimori) to the west and Tarsis to the east.

A traveller cannot find the Tower, it is the Tower which decides if it wants to be found[who?]. One may fall alseep in an open field to wake up surrounded by the magical forest. One may stand at the border of the woods, face away from them and walk for ten minutes, only to turn around and discover the forest is still right behind you.

It is here where the Conclave of Wizards is located, and the only Tower taking the famous Tests of High Sorcery with the exception of Palin Majere who took his test under the direction of Dalamar. In the Fourth and Fifth Age, becoming the center for magic in Ansalon. Wayreth became the only bastion of hope and safety for magic users in the dark years after the Cataclysm.
