The Towers Between Layers
Between each layer, an spire of brick and stone stands. They are massive cylindrical staircases, populated by neverending torches
and mindless gargoyles that seem to emerge from the walls. There are eight towers, each roughly measuring to 2,730 feet tall.
These towers have never been mentioned in any occult or traditional texts in our records.
When prompted to at the behest of higher ups, Flesh Angel interviewed locals who revealed the towers connecting the layer are relatively new,
previously requiring sigils to teleport between layers. The local explained "They just fell down one day, screams of fresh damned falling in reverse
to the ceiling at the same time. Quite a sight, I haven't seen anything like that in all my years." Further prodding from higher demons
within the New Christ Enclave revealed it had appeared on September 14th, 2001. No progress has been made on identifying how or why this
has happened.
It is important to note for any agents traveling between layers, demons usually take some form of residence near the very bottom or top of the stairs.
The gargoyles present are territorial, violently ripping apart anyone who comes near their posts. Interestingly, holding out a coin to one will have them display
a rather shocking amount of sudden intelligence. Typically, they will motion for more coins. If they are satisfied with the amount presented, the
agent and those accompanying them will no longer be attacked by any of the gargoyles for their entire trip. Talks of paying an wage to an singular gargoyle for
each tower has been considered, in order to prevent demon travel between layers.
