This was another map from this adventure that I wasnt satisfied with a 1-1 creation of.  Here is my imagining of the Observatory. I will be running the encounter mostly as written with a few modifications. The biggest one is the puzzle in the Observatory, I removed the statue puzzle and replaced it with a simple keyword that can be found with a knowledge or investigation check while in the Rotunda room. Naming the comet that Sparkrender is studying will reveal the access to the observatory tower, and his captive.

Sparkrender has made his home in the Southwest library tower. Here he studies the celestial bodies and studies the rituals he believes will unlock the ancient magic of the observatory and grant him immense power.  The Library is now locked in addition to having a magic bridge. The lower level of the tower is locked by means of a hidden switch found in the library using investigation, or by convincing one of the kobolds to tell you (it was them that found it for the wyrmling initially).  His plan has to do with completing the ritual when the comet is at its closest to Toril, the observatory was set up to track the comet by an ancient dragon who believed it is the breath of Tiamat. 

The roof of the observatory is caved in preventing Aidron from escaping. The Bronze Wyrmling is chained in the tower and is still recovering from his battle with Sparkrender. The only way in or out is by speaking the Key Phrase to the Statue. The key phrase is the name of the comet, and can be found in both the Star Map in the rotunda room, in the books of the library, the ones that are out and have been studied recently will mention it, or by speaking to the Kobolds who have been taught to revere the comets coming. 

I used these excellent towers in this build!
