Merlin’s room instantly lit up when the door was safely hidden away in the wall. The center of the room contained a massive conduit of magic that swelled from the castle itself. It was a feat that Merlin was able to harness the crystal within Avalon and redirect some of its energies into his room. The occupants below would never realize just how much power swirled around their walls. The walls of the room contained bookshelves upon bookshelves where ancient books were preserved by magic that would dissipate once anyone tried to pull one off. Two alcoves existed; one leading towards stairs that led downwards toward experimental tables and a small bedroom, the other had an open balcony that wrapped around the entire observatory.
