Labyrinth

The Labyrinth is a sprawling, multi-layer magical biotope that exists beneath Kimberly Magic Academy.

Overview
The labyrinth is home to many magical plants and creatures, making it dangerous for anyone venturing in unprepared.

Many students in higher grades make their own research spaces in the labyrinth.

Layers
The Labyrinth is made up of various layers, each more dangerous than the ones before it.

First Layer
The first layer is a stone-work maze that encroaches on the school buildings after nightfall, making it easy for unaware students to accidentally make their way into it. It can also be accessed via a magical painting in one of the school's classrooms.

On the first layer, there is a colosseum that students sometimes use for private duels, away from the eyes of Kimberly staff.

Second Layer
The second layer is comprised of forests and jungles.

To pass to the third layer, travelers must complete a trial in which two opposing undead armies clash. The travelers must assist the side that would otherwise lose in defeating the other army.

Third Layer
The third layer is made up of a vast swamp. The safest way to pass is via boat, as there are many dangerous flying creatures hiding in the trees of the swamp.

This layer is home to the workshop of Ophelia Salvadori.

To pass to the fourth layer, the travelers must pass a trial that simulates the contents a randomly assigned reading from a book held by a black robed figure.

Fourth Layer
The fourth layer is an actual library, referred to as the Library of Depths. Surrounding the library is a wilderness area without monsters.

There are 20 passages leading to different points on the fifth layer called the helicoid halls.

Terrain in the fourth layer is highly resistant to magic interference.
