== Appearance ==
Akinah is located on a small island in the northern section of Aimia, somewhat near the large main island.{{ref|name=sa3i4}} The city seems to have once been grand, with ornate buildings arranged in a tenfold symmetry radiating out from a round central hub.{{File ref|Four_Cities.jpg|Kabsal's Cymatics notes}} This tenfold symmetry is related to the tenth name of the [[Almighty]], He Who Transforms; the [[Soulcasting]] fabrials and the specific Dawnshard found in Akinah; and the concept of change.{{wob ref|8614}} From above, the city looks like a flower with radiating petals.{{book ref
The island features dark, tall rock formations along its center that look almost like the walls of a city{{
=== Caverns ===
The Oathgate and the [[Akinah Dawnshard mural|Dawnshard mural]] were discovered in Akinah’s separate underground caverns.{{coppermind ref |url=https://coppermind.net/wiki/Summary:Dawnshard}}
Great pains had been taken to hide the functioning Oathgate. A chamber with a false, seemingly defunct Oathgate was built atop the true Oathgate. The real Oathgate was housed underneath in a room about twelve feet high and expansively wide.{{
Akinah’s other secrets were hidden beneath the island in a cavern accessible only via underwater tunnel. Inside the air-filled chambers, a corridor that had been carved out of the stone featuring murals (“strange murals. People with hands forward, falling through what appeared to be portals, emerging into...light?”) led to a small room with a large mural on the far side, a set of Shardplate, ornate weapons and clothing, and eight [[Soulcaster]] devices. A metal door on the left side of the room opened to a larger corridor with six huge [[larkin]] skulls.{{
=== Soulcast Defenses ===
The island is ringed by a wall of enormous Soulcast stone spikes around forty feet tall and guarded by additional Soulcast underwater spikes, seemingly designed to pierce the hulls of approaching ships.Three underwater spikes and one wall spike were removed by Soulcasting during a failed expedition in 1174.{{
