The Ancient Tower, Tarqaron (古代塔市 タルカロン Kodaitoushi Tarukaron?) is a city-made-weapon that was located underneath Aspio until Duke Pantarei resurrects it in Tales of Vesperia. It serves as the location for the last dungeon of the story. When Tarqaron arises, it crushes and destroys Aspio. Through her connection with the Spirits, Estelle learns that Tarqaron is a weapon powered by mana, and Duke plans to take it away from the human population of Terca Lumireis, using it to destroy the Adephagos and ensuring it would never appear again. The group makes their way to Tarqaron to stop Duke and perform the Spirit conversion to destroy the Adephagos themselves.
