There is good reason for the apprentice's den to be dubbed 'the eyrie' - it brings to mind a roost of sorts, where birds come to nest. Set about six feet into the stack of cargo boxes, a dark and shadowy space stretches upwards towards the ceiling like some sort of gloomy square chimney. Here, the cargo boxes were stacked rather awkwardly, leaving ledges of various sizes sticking out into the empty 'chimney' space. With the proper dexterity, it's possible to reach nearly all these ledges, using a main sort of 'staircase' up that circles around in a spiraling fashion. All the ledges are at various heights and sizes, fitting no more than four at the most, but most are quite roomy and surprisingly comfortable. There are only two entrances/exits - the one that leads back out to the main warehouse floor, and the one that leads all the way up to the top of the chimney and onto the cargo boxes, some 20 feet up. Rather soundproof, with only little squares of light, the place is perpetually dim but cozy. By default, the oldest apprentices get their pick of ledges, but one must always be at the top of the chimney - so that if a battle signal is called, the apprentices will be alerted.
