Description
The entire fortress was very closely guarded, and there was almost no other point of entry besides the front door.[1] Despite its location, it was quite warm inside, with a fireplace in every room that made the heat "almost stifling."[2] Glory recalls seeing smoke rising from it.[3] Inside the fortress, tapestries of desert symbols and scenery, such as suns or lizards, decorated the walls.[4] The tapestries were put up for Blaze and the few SandWings in the fortress because it reminded them of the Kingdom of Sand.[5] There was a tapestry of two dragons, presumably Palm and Smolder, flying into the sunset.[6]
