There are about 3 levels to the city, all curling around an in on each other. Much like the root system of many plants. Which makes sense as the Pale Tree forms the structure of the Grove.
In the lowest level (The Gardens), many dignitaries and Firstborn reside. The next level up is a very practical level. All of the crafters, most of the merchants and traders can be found here. I believe it's the Terrace? But the next level up also has a terrace- mostly for the envoys. Also on this third level are trainers, for all sorts of professions as well as armorers specifically for the Sylvari.
Above all that, resides the Pale Tree. The Omphalos Chamber is where her Avatar resides and grants audiences and wisdom to those who come to her.
All in all, it is good to know what is waiting for me at home. To know what it is I am defending and fighting for. There are many points through the Grove that allow you to step back and get a grand feel for it. Such a glorious and awesome place. The Pale Tree has strong roots here. I worry a little to see what it is beyond the Grove that challenges and threatens such a place.
