Glades of Far Reach

Aspect: Wood
Celestial Manse: 3
An unusual manse for Yu-Shan, the Glades were built for an eastern forest god who, upon promotion to a heavenly abode, found that the forest was still the home that he felt most comfortable in. The Glades are a patch of forest transplanted into Yu-Shan, or perhaps an exact replica grown in situ; trees reach hundreds of feet into the air and stretch several dozen acres across heaven. The trees swarm with eastern life, and the whole of the glade is surrounded by a golden birdcage. The animals that live in the grove are vital parts of the geomancy; killing too many can cause the manse to be destabilized, but by the same token, leaving them be and not interacting with them at all will cause some species to grow too rapidly and also throw off the balance. There must be at least one day of hunting per month by a character aware of the balance of nature to prevent power failure. The only structure aside from the forest itself is a circle of stone benches around a table at the very center of the manse used as a meeting place by the owner.
