No New Posts Diamond Light Springs

Not far off the beaten path, just behind the Inn, lies a clearing of lush beauty. The haven of the surrounding flowers and trees give the hidden clearing a calm, peaceful feeling. Within the center of this clearing is a hill, but it's not the hill that is amazing, but what's inside it. The mound is hollow, made so by the sparkling hot spring that flows within and the ravages of time and mother nature. Although it does have only the one entrance in, it isn't dark in the least. A soft glow from the little light that filters through the rocky outcropping concealing the entrance, is enhanced by the many small diamonds and diamond dust inset on the walls of the cave and along the floor of the warm pool. The main focus is the spring, bubbling within the center of the cave, but along the walls are placed a few hooks and even some wooden benches carved within... © Kazzillyown

The Gardens

Board Threads Posts Last Post
No New Posts Abalone Beach

The first beauty seen of the Gardens' home, is the pristine beach upon which one's foot is first allowed to tread. The white sands glisten like diamonds, rimmed with lovely sea oats that billow with the gentle sea breeze.

If one wishes to set sail or to dock, there are small ports at the north and south ends of the islands. Otherwise, the beaches are open for all manner of quests. Abalone are quite the catch, as their meat sells for a good price in the Inn's restaurant, and the shells are in high demand for the jewelers and decorators that are strewn throughout the township. Fishing tends to be the daily trend among the residents, as there are always at least a handfull with a rod and bucket, looking for their morning's catch.

No New Posts Windsong Meadow

Looking out on the meadow, wonderous colors fill the senses and glow with the vibrance of life. Only a small dirt path parts the lush carpet of grass and wildflowers that decorate the landscape. Accentuating the visual beauty is the namesake of the meadow. When the wind picks up, certain flowers catch the breeze and emit a beautiful melody that carries across the rolling scape like a lullaby whispered upon the wind. © Hallie

No New Posts Hedgemaze Courtyard

Spread out over a vast expanse of well kept garden is a topiary courtyard. Edging the maze of walkways are waist-height hedges, adding structure to the splendor of the beautiful artwork that they protect. Scattered throughout the hedgemaze are large bushes trimmed into the shape of various animals and mythical beasts, each truly a work of art at its mastery. As with most of the gardens, the center of the courtyard is adorned with a large fountain, the outer rim of which is wide enough to be used as a seat if the benches do not strike the fancy of those seeking rest. © Hallie

No New Posts White Rose Battlefield

At the far end of this veritable paradise is a large expanse of land bereft of flowering vegetation. The White Rose Battlefield remains a tribute to those who fought for the beauty of the land and won, making it possible to make the Gardens a home for all. Receiving its name for the garden of white roses that used to root in the once fertile soil, every dawn a bouquet will be found on the edge... a reminder of the beauty lost to preserve that of the rest of the island... also, to remind those that use this sacred place to settle disputes or spar here, that the beauty came at a price and the surrounding areas are protected... © Hallie

No New Posts The Aviary

Down the winding path lies the gate to an enormous wrought iron filigree cage. The aviary stands approximately the height of a six story building, encompassing the span of four acres of beautiful shade trees, lush vegetation, and a wide variety of rare and common songbirds. Upon passing through the gate, the path spreads into three directions, the middle giving direct view of a large bubbling fountain. Benches line each path, offering rest to those whom seek the birds' concert. © Hallie

No New Posts Main Hall

Down a long marble walkway lined in massive pillars stand a set of double doors of heavy English Oak. Upon further inspection, the intricate details stand out and seem to come alive with the dancing light that filters through the rhododendron bushes that line the walkway. Scenes of the Great Battle grace the ornate relief, preserving the story of the Angels and their aid in the Gardens' creation and preservation.

Upon pushing the doors open, the inner sanctum greets its patrons with the sweet scent of myrrh wafting from the censures beside the grand altar. Adorning each pew in the many rows that line the aisle are fresh bunches of rhododendrons, adding to the peaceful scent of the hallowed sanctuary.
