A castle ethereal in its age and beauty pressed into the side of a rocky cliff, its great sweeping forms creating the proud structure. Vegetation had long since grown over the sturdy walls, trying to take back what had been stolen from it. Beneath the thick carpets of mosses and vines hanging from just about every conceivable perch, One could see the four distinct levels that make up the main house. Once hard corners and edges were worn round and smooth from the action of water and wind, to the point where some surfaces seemed to be as smooth as glass. Though seemingly tarnished, the land had healed and, though the castle still remained, its beauty could not be lost.
Hints of warm reds and chipped gold peeked out between the emerald of live and fresh foliage. The vast courtyard now occupied by forest was covered in a plush carpet of moss and grass, where once only dirt had been pounded under foot. Copper statues, green with patina, lay toppled next to or stoic on their dais. Around some, almost covering them from sight, were gnarled sakura trees and peony bushes. Fire blooms added hints of color to the vast greenery. Amidst the medley of verdant greens and amber yellows, tiny shoots of crimson blossomed upward to lie across the overgrown path. A heady scent of nature at its best where one could almost smell each individual plant. Honeysuckle, peony, burdock… all thickly mixed with scents that couldn't identified even if tried.
The scent of the sea breeze would be struck next, telling senses just how close it was to the shore, the salt of the air sharp in contrast to the soft flora. A gentle breeze carried from the other side of the walls where one could hear the surf crashing.
A an aura surrounds this structure heavy and thick, which is meant to keep other beings from interfering with his plans. Little is known about the master of this estate, and those that have had the pleasure of meeting him have not lived long to retell the tale, or have only seen glimpses of him in the night.
