{{Quotation|game|The origin of the Eye of the North is so ancient it has been lost to even the wisest skaald, the cultural storytellers of the Norn. Currently, the massive structure has become a base of operations for a group of Ascalonian expatriates known as the Ebon Vanguard, who plan and execute raids against the [[Charr]] from within the safety of its walls.}}
The [[Eye of the North (outpost)|Eye of the North]] is a tower in the Far Shiverpeaks. The structure is not of Dwarven, Asuran, or human in construction, although it resembles the architecture of [[Arah]] and other godly sites. The Norn who settled the Far Shiverpeaks were the first to "discover" the Eye; they sensed something unnatural about its construction, and assiduously avoided it. In recent years, the Ebon Vanguard of the [[Ascalon Army]] settled within the tower and made it their main stronghold in the north.

The Eye is built on a perpetually frozen alpine lake, with a single, easily defended entrance that leads into a wide circular chamber. To the rear of the Eye is a separate chamber, the [[Hall of Monuments]], which holds a [[Scrying Pool]] within, though it remained dormant to the Ebon Vanguard's attempt to use it.

== Notes ==
{{gw2w|Eye of the North}}
* Complete exploration of the outpost yields less than 1 Eye of the North mastery point.

==Trivia==
* During the Guild Wars Eye of the North preview weekend, Eye of the North was a [[town]] in the Far Shiverpeaks along with [[Gunnar's Hold]], making it the only region with two towns. During an [[update]] after the weekend, before [[Guild Wars Eye of the North|Eye of the North]] went live, the staging area was changed to an outpost. It is still marked as a town on the [http://gw1101.gtm.guildwars.com/downloads/eyeofthenorth/gwen-mapposter.jpg official map poster].
* If you look directly above the Eye of the North outpost, the sky will be a purplish black, when you go inside and look up, the sky looks more like a black hole.
* Eye of the North is the only outpost in the Eye of the North expansion areas to have [[Special event|seasonal]] decorations.
* The tower is one of the tallest buildings on Tyria if not the tallest.
