The main group of people on the sculpture are life-size, and number twelve adults and one infant in all. Four are obviously elves, two are dwarves, two may be half-elves and the remaining appear to be human. Behind and off to the sides of the main group are several other people, in various sizes as if they were standing farther away. Closer inspection finds there are thirty nine additional figures scattered throughout the sculpture, including several very small ones standing on the city wall, and in the windows of the buildings behind it. Across the top of the wall is an inscription that reads: The Keys Of The Future Are Passion And Reason. Which Path Will You Follow?
1 a nondescript elf facing forward
2 a nondescript human woman facing forward
3 a human male facing forward, dressed as a warrior, about 5'10-6' tall. He is standing with his arm around the woman to his right, a carved amulet of Cerelia around his neck, and the hilt of a Sword of Fate at his hip. The figure appears to look eerily like Sebastian, only a few years older and more worn.
4 a large dwarven male facing forward, about 5'6 tall, with a ragged ear and nose ring. He is holding a great axe in front of him, both hands on the hilt, the blade resting on the ground. From behind his left shoulder pokes the hilt of a Sword of Fate. The figure appears to look eerily like Rauchen, only a few years older and more worn .
5 behind and slightly to the left of the dwarf stands an nondescript human facing forward.
6 a woman of extraordinary beauty facing forward, about 5'10 tall, who could be either elven or human, holding an infant in her arms, the man to her left has his arm around her shoulders and her left hand is entwined in his, as if they were lovers. She is dressed as a warrior,and she too has a Sword of Fate on her hip. The figure appears to look eerily like Taloryn, only a few years older and more worn.

8 a tall elven man facing forward, dressed as a scholar or mage, with his right arm around the shoulders of the woman to his right. His left hand is entwined with hers, as if they were lovers. Around his neck is a familiar looking symbol. The man looks familiar, as if he had a familial relationship to Champ and Serious
9 a short human woman, facing the left side of the sculpture, her hands upon upper arm of the elvan man before her. She is dressed as a traveler or perhaps even a rogue or thief. She also has the hilt of a Sword of Fate at her hip. The figure behind her has it's hands upon her shoulders. The figure appears to look eerily like Juliet, only a few years older and more worn.

He has a Sword of Fate at his hip as well. The figure appears to look eerily like Champ or Viktor, only a few years older and more worn.

Each of the main figures (save the infant) has what appears to be a plain gold band around one of the fingers of their hand.
Studying the background will reveal several other familiar figures, all carved to be anywhere from 3-12 inches tall.
an elven bard playing a lute who looks like Toren
a figure in one of the tower windows who looks like Jacob
a woman with outspread arms who at first glance appears to be standing on a wall, but upon closer inspection appears to be floating slightly above it. She looks eerily like the Lost Girl
a group of five familiar looking children playing on the steps of a temple
around the base of the city walls there are hundreds of tiny little rats
scattered throughout the sculpture are nine keys and six locks
the arch of the gate in the city/castle wall is in the shape of a serpentine dragon.
A gypsy woman is blowing a horn while several gypsies around her are dancing
several details in the sculpture are confusing as to what season it may be. A couple of areas have what could be construed as snow cover, several trees are in full spring bloom, others with full leaves, and several with leaves scattered on the ground below them.
and finally, down in the lower left corner is a chiseled "signature" - Valexende
