Verge Dwelling \\ (Hearthstone: Stone of Rejuvenating Passion)

Verge Dwelling is located perhaps 20 miles from the outskirts of Sijan. One would assume that the proximity of so much death Essence would produce a Manse of a different character, but this is not the case. Instead, the distant bleakness seem only to enhance the feeling of vitality inherent in the structure, reminding all who step into the Manse that they are still alive, no matter the death around them. Of course, this feeling is somewhat overwhelming… a powerful force is required to stave off the sense of despair radiating from the landscape. Many who enter the Manse find themselves driven to affirm their existence in various ways, and the many bedrooms show signs of them doing just that.

The Manse is a small, domed structure, constructed from green jade and obsidian. It lies within a tiny forest, a dark and humid place which nonetheless resonates with life. The dome itself is a series of hexagonal rooms, connected by a single long hallway that does a full curcuit of the Manse. Each room is a well-furnished bedroom, draped with dark green silks and heady with a sickly sweet perfume. The Hearthstone chamber is in the centre of the manse; devoid of beds, though the perfume is thickest here. An elaborate pattern is engraved into the jade floor, and the hearthstone is located in the center of the room, contained within a small silk hanging.
