Ahlaevor

[SerendipitousMelody]

Many would speak of the mysterious castle at the edge of the woods,
but few would know what it stood for.
A few years back, people of the village nearby could have sworn that the old structure blew up.
Yet suddenly, it was brought back to life,
restored to it's previous glory.
In one night, all time would be reversed,
the castle resting in the middle of the lake,
it's front bridge extending to the forest beyond,
the castle reaching the sky in it's heights.

...Ladies and Gentlemen....the Ahlaevor Bar and inn...

 

[SerendipitousMelody]

The first floor is simply done with mahogany and pine, the floor polished and shone.
The seats are soft and comfortable, leaving nothing to be wanted.
Black and blue curtains line the walls and windows, keeping the warmth inside.
Not many would think that a castle would be cozy, but somehow, the Ahlaevor manages.
The staff keeps it clean and orderly.

Forest:
The forest surrounds the Ahlaevor Bar and Inn, leaving it in seclusion.
But it's placement in the woods gives it a welcome air for travelers.
The woods are dark, full of animals both strange, and normal.
The trees almost seem to move sometimes, giving the entire place a sort of creepy air as well.

Village:
The village is about two miles to the East of the Ahlaevor Bar and Inn.
It is a small village, with people who are very friendly until the sun sets.
Then, all strangers are left out for the night,
the doors of the village folk being locked and closed to all who aren't born in the village.
They direct all who stumble across the village to the Ahlaevor,
where they can stay for the night.

Lake:
The lake holds many secrets, and not many of them are talked about.
The water is clear and deep, almost clean enough to drink.
At the very edge of the Ahlaevor, however, it becomes most dangerous,
having a mysterious lady who lives in that area, claiming all that come too close to her underwater sanctuary.

Caves:
The caves are off to the West of the Ahlaevor, about a ten minute walk away.
They are extensive, and connect to the caves of the Musique Vivante.
A lot of the caves, however, have not been explored.

Clinic:
The clinic is a small building to the North of the Ahlaevor.
It seems to be abandoned,
but every so often, sounds of a battle may be heard from inside it's walls.
Strange lights sometimes flash in the distance.
There are many signs around the fence, warning off all trespassers.
