No New Posts The Darkshine Palace

Like all dwellings in Silvanus the Darkshine Palace is built into a tree. The grand palace is built from several giant sequoia trees that fused into one. A black raven with a gold beak and talons is painted near the camouflaged door, an address marker. Inside the walls are paneled with polished dark woods, lined with glass lights. The ceilings are incredibly high, patterned with large, diamond shaped panes of glass and dark wood to allow as much sunshine in as possible. The floors are made of off-white marble veined with gold, some rooms have lush carpeting. The hallways are lined with portraits of various members of the Darkshine family and past royalty. Everything about the palace is elegant and made with a simple beauty. Roleplays can be held here.

No New Posts The Royal Forest

The Royal forest is a large crop of lush, towering, thick trunked trees directly behind the Darkshine palace. The forest is filled with thousands of varieties of roses, the favorite flower of the late Queen Magdaline. They grow wild, bushes everywhere, vines climbing trees and hanging from branches. The various trails that lead through the forest are strewn with petals and the soft scent or the roses hang in the air. On the side of most of the trails are wooden benches made of thick vines or tree trunks, all appearing as if they have grown out the ground itself. A strong wall of intricately braided branches and a high gate seperates the forest and the palace. Dark roses grow around the wooden gate and at the top the Darkshine family crest is carved. Roleplays can be held here.

No New Posts The Tower of Calemistar

In the center of the Royal Forest, jutting out from the great canopies that the lush trees boast, stands a massive construct of earthly materials. Vines, bark, branches and stone, the creation is marvelously polished and yet still seems to have been born from the soil itself. It stands upon the grounds where the original Mage's Tower had crumbled hundreds of years prior, and in several places in the surrounding area, there are the edges and corners of the ancient stones still jutting out just barely from their earthly graves. The Tower of Calemistar serves as a bastion for knowledge in a fashion very similar to the Mercaellian Monastery, but it is more interested in those objects and lores of magical properties. Though it was only erected sixteen years ago, the Tower has already become quietly reknown and respected amidst the elven community, and is where many budding mages – earth mages primarily – are starting to travel to en masse for training and understanding of their gifts.

No New Posts Town Center

Town center is located at the very center of the vast forest that is Silvanus. It is a very large, round clearing roofed by a canopy of large leaves which allow beams of green tinted light into the marketplace below. All around the circle of the clearing are shops built into the trunks of the trees, all with brightly colored doors (which are usually flung wide open) and large diamond shaped windows. The shops sell everything from fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, wines (delivered directly from the Silvanus agricultural lands), to clothing and other odds and ends. At the center or the clearing a wooden platform is built. On this platform the elves are informed of the latest news and decrees in Silvanus, plays are preformed, concerts are preformed and much more. It is a popular gathering spot for the elves.

No New Posts Ularik's Sea Port

Named after a former elven king, Ularik's Sea Port is the largest sea port in Silvanus. Sleek, leaf-like boats and large ships take Elves and others to various parts of Dustanova. It is a circular building built of sun-bleached wood and covered in ivy, it is one of the very few buildings in Silvanus that is not built directly into the the trunk of a tree. It is located at the tip of Silvanus and leads into the deep blue waters of the great sea. The elven boatmen wear waist length dark green robes with black leather and silver belts, dark green leggings, and knee high black boots with silver buckles. It is the most popular sea port in Silvanus.

No New Posts Lefi'Har Marshes

Lefi'Har Marshes are a part of Silvanus where the trees are massive and strong, lush and old, but where water’s flooded the area up an impossible amount, making it necessary to travel through it by canoe - like a lake filling in the middle of the forest.

No New Posts Silvanus Agricultural Lands

The Silvanus Agricultural Lands are surrounded by a high, stone wall covered in thorny vines and heavily guarded. It is where all the fruits and vegetables of Silvanus are grown. It is the main resource of food for the elves. Very few people are allowed into the vast farming area, only those with direct permission from the royal family and a pass.

No New Posts Le Filet de Meurtre

Also known as the Net of Murder or ‘Arachne’s Web’, the Filet de Meurte was constructed by the essentially brutal and blood-thirsty warrior Queen, Arachne de la Morte. A vicious ruler, Queen Arachne threw any being which displeased her into this heavily trapped maze, which was often enough that the beasts she kept there rarely worried of hunger. The maze is massive and intricate; without a map, it’s almost assured that a being would starve to death trying to find their way out – especially since the maze is only cleaned out and thoroughly searched every fifteen years.

No New Posts The Black Forest

In the years of Queen Jazzil during the ‘Mortal Revolution’ against Demon Emperor Thorown, the demons and went into conflict against the Allied forces within a dangeorus stretch of elves' forest inhabited by the Silvanus Shadow Lords and their nandin accomplices. The entire area was burned from its original majesty, crystalizing the trees and sealing the dryads within them from the outside world. While most have decayed on the inside those that host dryads are suspended in slumber, and any attempt to revive the trees result in the timed death of both dryad and tree.

No New Posts The Court of the Seven Shadow Lords

The ‘Shadow Court’ of Silvanus is ruled by the patriarchal descendents of the Seven Shadow Lords of King Eldrien IV; a dark refinement plagues this charred area, where several assassins’ guilds, thieves’ unions, and nomadic exiles roam without care - surprisingly enough, it's also one of the artistic centers of Silvanus. A very distinct society with experience being the only ranking trait, all races are welcome here, and rogues of all trades can be found about. Despite the charred surrounding, the Shadow Court carries monopoly over toxic flora, and the guild-masters are known for their intuition in the field of poisons and venoms - and the prices they ask for their excellent herbal remedies.
