# City of Magic

Welcome to the City of Magic — a skybound wonder of floating islands, glowing runes, and endless arcane mystery. Suspended above the clouds of Ruashoth, this awe-inspiring city is home to the legendary Institute of Magic, the sacred Prigosys Temple of Mystra, and the vast Great Library of Candlekeep.

Arrive through the colossal Transkip Circle or take a ride on the soaring Lightning Rail between islands. Wander stone streets etched with living magic, meet spellcasters from every corner of the world, and maybe catch a glimpse of a famous mage mid incantation. Just don’t miss the last teleport—unless you fancy braving a wild magic leap.

Whether you're a student, a seeker, or simply spellbound by the unknown, the City of Magic has something for you. Just look up.
