The Council's new building seems to be placed out of the main built-up area, being surrounded by thick vegetation, and having a large lake sitting in front of it, with a ship docked not far from the building. From the Council's meeting area, many buildings were visible below, and a series of snow-capped mountains sat in the background. In front of the structure, standing at both sides of the large road leading to the building's entrance, were two meadows marked by bushes, and well as several statues, portraying winged, bare-breasted women with flowing clothes circling their waists, their arms crossed in front of their chests. The Ishgar Magic Council's first headquarters was located within Era, overlooking a large open space, with some buildings visible a bit away from it, on both sides, separated from the headquarters by two lines of trees.
