The High Forest

A crumbling elven castle, moulded from the living wood of an ancient tree. Recently turned into an outpost by a band of rangers, for monitoring and protecting the region. Its tree tower is complete with a smooth, bark-covered exterior adorned with musical motifs. Marble walls surround the courtyard with the hostelry and smaller stone buildings entwined with flowering vines and luminescent fungi. A small rehabbed dock allows access for small vessels. Walls, archways, and trellises overgrown with wild roses and ivy enhance its mystical ambiance. Interiors feature high, vaulted ceilings supported by branch-like beams. A central spiral staircase rises to bed chambers and grand solar. The ground floor features a great hall, with a grand fireplace and long tables, while the topmost floor features a chapel. Surrounding buildings house forges, armoury, and kitchens slowly being restored to use. The entire structure, while crumbling and decaying, retains traces of its protective enchantments.

Engravings of elven runes and musical motifs adorn its surfaces, subtly glowing at certain times of the day. This tower is encircled by a walled hostelry, comprising smaller stone buildings entwined with flowering vines and luminescent fungi. High walls, archways, and trellises overgrown with wild roses and ivy enhance its mystical, forsaken ambiance.
