Castle Levi'a-viris, named after it's first mythical king, Levi'a-deivos, is a fairly large construction of blue-green-veined marble, flecked with gray, much like the sea below. It is surrounded by well-kept gardens, attended by a veritable army of gardeners and other staff. The family tasked with administrating the grounds are always willing to help or enlighten.
It can be reached by several wide roads, snaking through the nearby forests, or cutting through the countryside. Many a winding paths, carved into the cliff-face, lead down to the pure white beaches, foamy waves pounding onto the shore. There is also a small path, more of a collection of flat boulders, reachable only by low tide, which moves across the ocean, to abandoned yet still-imposing temple ruins, often shrouded in fog. Centuries ago, people held cerimonies and sacrifices to the god of the ocean, Levi'a-than. It is now reduced to a dangerous tourist attraction.
The castle itself, however, is all but gloomy. The five floors are always well-lit and clean, and one will always find a staff member scurrying about. The halls are often lined with bookshelves or paintings, and the rooms have an expensive antique feel. If one wishes to merely relax at the castle, he can enjoy the grounds, or the meals, or sit in one of the rooms and curl up to a book with a steaming cup of hot chocolatl to ward off against the freezing cold of the night. If one is more of the adventurer type, he can explore the supposedly haunted woods, or visit the temple of Levi'a-than, battle enchanted books in the more occult sections of the library, or spar with one of the other guests. Mysteries and treasure troves abound.
Whether you're a staff member, guest, or anyone, there's always something to do!
To ensure you enjoy your stay to the fullest, however, the old mage Arc'u-vir Lese would want to remind you of a few rules:
No godmodding, please -- cleaning up afterwards is a mess;
Be respectful to your fellow guests;
Abide general other rules;
And have fun!
