	This school is built outside the city of Seren, close to the [[Golden Trees of Seren\|weirwood forest]] that occupies a significant portion of the old ruins. The structure itself is built around a Terunael ruin which has not been reclaimed from the forest. The ruin is still draped in moss and ivy, dotted with trees, but much of it has been restored by careful Navarr builders who have been painstaking in their efforts to incorporate as much of the original stonework as possible. Many "chambers" are actually arched, open-air gardens or courtyards where ancient trees still flourish.

	The heart of the Rose is an open hall whose floor is inlaid with a complex spiral mosaic - an original feature of the ruin. This hall serves as both a lecture hall and a library, with a fair sized collection of books about the supernatural realms as well as many treatises on the history of the Navarr and Terunael. At the back of the room there is a weirwood carving of a mage rod in the form of a rose wrapped in sharp thorns and at ~~it's~~ base is carved "We sacrifice to put right what Terunael made wrong. Your steps inspired me to lead others to follow in your steps. Our Dance will lead us back to our family." There is an endless loop of thorns next to these words.
