	The Rose Towers are a singular marvel, marrying functional fortification with beauty and inspiration to create a place of pilgrimage testifying to [[Pride]] in Dawn’s contributions to the glory of the Empire.

The construction that made him famous was designed and built as his test of mettle, a commission from the Earl of House Arien to create a beautiful palace in which every room would contain at least one window that faced the south garden.
