“The University's warded cells for the mad”
Appearance§
Stone cells veined and lined with copper to inhibit magic.
Description§
The Rookery is the part of the University, attached to the Medica, where those who have lost their minds are confined. Its cells are lined with copper, which disperses arcane energy and prevents namers and sympathists from working their craft to escape. Elodin was once held in a Rookery cell, and even he had difficulty breaking through a wall that merely held veins of copper ore.
