General
A very old city that has been mostly lost in portal space making it dangerous for anyone wishing to stay for long periods. It predates the Empyreans who at one point lived there and attempted to tame the unstable portal magic.
There are no permanent portals to the Floating City except in the Golem Sanctum, which is also a random appearing portal. Frequently, however, a portal may be found at 86.5S,5.4E near the Land Bridge Villas lifestone (see above for route). Note that this portal's destination within the Floating City is not randomized with every trip through it; it is believed it changes on a monthly basis; it is also not known for sure whether or not this portal is present every month, and results may be different from one server to the next. So the Floating City is, for the most part, only accessible via a randomly appearing landscape portal, similar to the Humming Crystal Portal. It is also possible for a portal to the City to appear at locations where there is a randomly generated portal (for example, northern point).
Using one of the landscape portals will drop you randomly in one of the sections named below. The portal in the Golem Sanctum appears to be a stable portal to the Floating City's tunnels.
Every month, the portals in the Floating City are randomized; this includes both the exit portals, (usually a town), and the few random portals leading to another section of the Floating City. Look closely at the maps of all areas within the Floating City to see which portals are stable (do not change on a monthly basis) and which portals vary from month to month. Depending on the month, it may be impossible to access certain levels of the Floating City unless your first drop point upon entry is that particular level. The Skyway, Tunnels and Lost Chamber require use of a random portal (either getting lucky from a landscape spawned portal, or one of the monthly-randomized portals within the city itself) to access. The Bar, Banderling Area, Construction Area, and Museum are all connected by a circuit of stable portals.
The Famous early explorer of Dereth and friend of Elysa Strathelar Alatar Locke once traversed parts of the city and left behind his notes on each section.
A Stained Book
During the From Darkness, Light event, all the sections were updated with higher level creatures and the city now has a 150+ restriction. In addition, the Distillery Dew in the bar can now be given in for better rewards.
