FZD/exterior - Divina Commedia: Castle of Spiriti Magni

This is an environment from my take on the Divina Commedia book, by Dante Alighieri if it was a game.

The Castle of Spiriti Magni is one of the first places Dante goes to, a place for pagans who distinguished themselves particularly in life but yet, not allowed to go to Paradise. The castle is surrounded by a halo of light, seven of walls and water. In my take, the place gets colder the closer you get to the ground, the castle floats and is reachable only by a sort of cable-car/cage.
