The Darm Tower is a main aspect of the Ys series. In the story, the Darm Tower is an unfinished and deserted tower, built with the intention of touching the sky.
The tower houses a small annex, titled "the Tower of Rado," at the 3/4 of the spires length.
According to in-game lore: In the ancient Ys age, because humans overused the magic power of the Black Pearl, an evil reaction occurred; magical energy brought fourth millions of cruel demons. The people of Ys fled to the Palace of Solomon and used the Black Pearl to lift the palace into the sky, creating a safe haven. The demons, focused on controlling the Black Pearl for their own intentions, began building the Darm Tower, day and night, attempting to link the Palace of Solomon with their construction. As in-game-events transpired, however, the demon's efforts were thwarted.

Famous quotes containing the word tower:
“All over France, in every city there stand cathedrals like this one, triumphant monuments of the past. They tower over the homes of our people like mighty guardians, keeping alive the invincible faith of the Christian. Every arch, every column, every statue is a carved leaf out of our history, a book in stone, glorifying the spirit of France.”
—Sonya Levien (1895–1960)
