The Spire of Talos is a large, skyscraper-like structure in the center of Cipritine, Secupia on Palaven. Taller than any other structure on Palaven and named after one of the turian spirits, Talos, the spire serves as the home of the turian government and their military high command. It was built several months after the Unification War ended, and has stood as a symbol of the unity between Palaven and its numerous vassal colonies. The Spire of Talos was destroyed during the opening Reaper bombardment and invasion of the planet in 2186 CE. Its destruction was a massive blow to turian military morale, but it would later be rebuilt post-war, only to be demolished during the Occupation of Palaven to demoralize the turian people after an attempted rebellion. Finally, it was rebuilt a third time after the Dominion's collapse in 2253 CE.
