The prison door room is the well guarded dwelling place of Preistess Bark's
Green Crystal of earth. sorry for not having that in the descriptions. :)
The arches and gates combo wall is a section of the perimeter wall around
LeafeLocke Hall. Only a section of the wall was added for 2 reasons:
1. If i attempted the whole perimeter wall, I would also have to build the
entirety of the forest of illusion. In relation to where the story takes
place, that may well happen once I get to that chapter.
2. I ran out of gate peices in brown . LOL

Yes, that waterfall is Myrrin the Blue's pride and joy: The floating
waterfall. Noone in Gallstorme can tell where the water comes from or goes
to after it magically seeps down the waterfall.
Since Grand Gallstorme city is still under construction, the full effect
isn't quite complete. As you've said, more lil buildings down the bottom
would make it "feel" more like a city, and I plan to do this as soon as I
get more peices :)
