Godshawk's Head was the home of the Order of Engineers before the mobilisation of London.

History[]

The building was intended to be part of a giant statue of Auric Godshawk. The statue was never completed, as the Scriven Uprising resulted in the demise of the Scriven in London. Shortly before Nikola Quercus took over the city, it was burnt down and rolled off its foundations.[1]

Structure[]

The entrance into the building is through a flight of stairs leading up the head's left nostril, as the architect that designed the statue depicted the lips being firmly closed. Just outside the head is a Wind Tram station.

Surrounding the head is a high fence connected to a high current power source in the basement that the Engineers had installed to defend the premises following the Skinners' Riots that ravaged London.[2]
