Kredik Shaw, also known as the Hill of a Thousand Spires, is the palace of the Lord Ruler. It is a box-like structure with many metal spires topping it.
The Kredik Shaw is located in the center of Luthadel. It was built on top of the Well of Ascension by Rashek after he remodelled the surrounding geography to hide the well from those seeking it in the mountains of Terris.
It has many peaked spires and sheer towers that rise high into the air, all of varying thickness. Some are large enough to contain large rooms and stairwells, and others are simply nothing more than thin rods of metal. There is no outer defensive wall surrounding the palace.
One part of the palace contains a large, domed room with many murals, including a mountain, a large cavern, a pool of light, and something very dark.
At the center of this room is a small, single-story building with a wooden door. Words are carved into the door, probably in the Terris language. The stone of this building is carved with ornate, flowing patterns.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content
The area immediately around Kredik Shaw also gives one a feeling of immense depression, as if a constant, strong Soothing were taking place. This is caused by the Lord Ruler himself.
