→Appearance: began adding strata descriptions
(Moved history section to the end; added new section on strata. It feels like the specific colors will be important, so I want to include a list of all mentioned colors and locations) |

The interior of Urithiru is filled with tunnels that twist about in strange curves, which Dalinar hypothesizes was done to fool invaders.{{book ref|sa3|8}} Navani's scholars have also found oddly shaped groups of rooms and murals of "fanciful animals," along with gold and copper metals embedded in the walls, presumably fabrials that they have been unable to understand.{{book ref|sa3|44}}
The tower is comprised of multiple rooms of different functionality, including sleeping quarters, meeting halls, libraries and bathhouse. Most of the rooms in Urithiru have high ceilings.{{book ref|sa3|15}}▼
===Strata===
Each tunnel has distinctive patterns of strata - for instance, the corridor to Dalinar's quarters has alternating red and yellow strips of strata that slope upwards while the strata in the bathhouse where [[Vedekar Perel]]'s body is found spiral and corkscrew.{{book ref|sa3|9}} Known strata colors include shades of brown, yellow, red, orange, and emerald green, though it would appear that only [[Surgebinder]]s are capable of perceiving the various colours.{{wob ref|10715}} The stone itself is smooth to the touch and hard enough that it can't be scratched with a knife.{{book ref|sa3|13}} Notably, the same strata patterns can be seen on [[Kholinar]] windblades, indicating similar, perhaps shared origin.{{book ref|sa3|61}}

*Third floor corridor where Sadeas's body is found: "twisted with lines—natural strata of alternating earthy colors, like those made by crem drying in layers."{{book ref|sa3|2}}
*Bathhouse where [[Vedekar Perel]]'s body is found: "spiraled, twisting around the floor, ceiling, and walls like the threads of a screw"; "curving, twisting medley of oranges, reds, and browns—ballooning out across the sides of this chamber in wide bands before coiling back into narrow stripes to continue down the hall that led out the other side"{{book ref|sa3|9}}
*On the way to Dalinar's quarters: "wide reddish strata alternating with smaller yellow ones"; "sloping slightly upward"{{book ref|sa3|8}}
