Erend followed Erebus through the final barrier and entered the innermost section of the restricted area. The first thing he noticed was the network of Magic barriers surrounding the place.
He saw stakes standing at regular intervals across the ground, connected by thin wires or strings that stretched between them. Various colors of light flowed along the connections, pulsing gently as the Magic within them was active.

Erend paused to examine the arrangement, sensing the Magic that flowed through the glowing connections. Although the structure looked simple at first glance he could tell that it served a specific purpose.
