Frequented by Isaac Allen Kane, the enigmatic information broker renowned for his impeccable taste and unwavering neutrality, Mirrorland is a sanctuary where the city's power players and secretive factions converge. Antique mirrors line the walls, reflecting the soft jazz music that mingles with hushed conversations and the clink of glasses filled with cocktails and rare spirits.

[i]"Discover a sanctuary of wilderness and wonder,"[/i][/center][/cell][cell]On the outskirts of St. Portwell lies the breathtaking Cascade Pines National Park, a vast expanse of protected wilderness that offers an escape from urban life. This national park, named for its towering pine trees and waterfalls, spans thousands of acres and showcases the region's diverse natural beauty. Cascade Pines National Park has many landscapes featuring dense forests, meadows, rugged cliffs, and crystal-clear streams. The scent of pine and wildflowers fills the air, and the forest is alive with the sounds of rustling leaves, bird songs, and the gentle flow of water.

At the park's heart, the majestic Crystal Falls cascades down a series of rocky terraces into a pristine pool below. This stunning waterfall is a highlight for visitors, offering a picturesque spot for picnics, photography, and reflection. A network of well-maintained trails flow through the park, catering to all levels of hikes, from strolls to challenging multi-day treks. Along these trails, visitors can discover hidden gems such as ancient trees, secluded meadows, and scenic overlooks that provide stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The trails also connect to several campgrounds and picnic areas, making the park an ideal destination for camping, fishing, and birdwatching.

Cascade Pines National Park is home to a rich variety of wildlife, including deer, black bears, foxes, and numerous species of birds. Nature enthusiasts and wildlife photographers often visit the park to observe these animals in their natural habitats. The park also holds cultural and historical significance, with ancient Native American sites and landmarks scattered throughout. These sacred spaces and historical markers offer a glimpse into the region's rich heritage and are respected and preserved by the local community and park visitors.[/cell][/row][row][/row][row][cell][b]THE HOUSE ON THE HILL[/b][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/pHYlQSV.jpg[/img]

[i]"A silent echo of preserved magic and mystery in the heart of St. Portwell"[/i][/center][/cell][cell]Although the "House on the Hill" has been closed to the public for some time now, its presence still looms large in the northern district of St. Portwell. Despite its closure, the building has been meticulously maintained, preserving its eerie allure and mysterious charm. Ivy continues to creep along its weathered walls, but caretakers ensure the structure remains intact.

Inside, the once-electric atmosphere has given way to a quiet reverence, as if the very walls themselves hold the secrets of the past. Velvet drapes still hang gracefully, while the antique chandeliers cast a soft, ethereal glow over the silent rooms. Dust may settle upon the surfaces, but diligent hands brush it away, preserving the intricate sigils and symbols that adorn the walls.

Behind the bar, bottles of "elixirs" and "potions" stand untouched, their labels still legible despite the years. However, a discerning eye would notice that these potions and artifacts are mere replicas crafted with care to maintain the illusion of witchcraft and mystique. Though the bartenders no longer serve their mystical concoctions, the bar remains a testament to the house's former glory, a silent witness to the revelry and magic that once filled its halls. 

Though the House on the Hill may no longer resound with the laughter and whispers of its patrons, it remains a beacon of mystery in the streets of St. Portwell.[/cell][/row][row][/row][row][cell][h3][b]THE[color=2e2c2c].[/color]FUNHOUSE[/b][/h3][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/X60jDuN.jpeg[/img]

[i]"If you step in, you might not leave a human being."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]The Funhouse, the dark heart of the Dollhouse operation, is a grim and foreboding structure hidden within the labyrinthine alleys of St. Portwell. From the outside, it appears to be an abandoned warehouse, its windows boarded up and its exterior cloaked in grime and graffiti layers. However, those who know its true nature understand that this hides a place of horror and suffering. Inside, the warehouse seems empty and neglected, not indicating the atrocities that occur beneath. The true horror lies underground, where a vast network of tunnels serves as the Dollhouse's clandestine base of operations. 

The walls of these tunnels are lined with enchanted runes that shimmer faintly, designed to block any unauthorized teleportation. Deep within this subterranean maze lies the "Carnival Room," a nightmarish room filled with an array of torture devices and experimental apparatuses. Cold, stainless steel tables are stained with the evidence of countless procedures, and shelves are lined with vials of strange potions and jars containing unidentifiable substances. The Dollhouse's captives are subjected to unspeakable horrors here, as Apparitions are forcibly placed into their bodies, turning them into Abscised.

But the "Carnival Room" is just one part of the twisted operation; next to it is the "Laboratory," where human experimentation is carried out with cold, scientific detachment. Here, subjects are exposed to a range of cruel trials designed to test the limits of human endurance and the effects of various magical substances. Vivisection, forced mutation, and brainwashing are commonplace, with victims kept in glass-walled cells to observe their transformations in real time.

Further down the tunnels, the "The Whisper Room" is a place of psychological torment. The walls of this room are inscribed with enchanted runes that cause visual and auditory hallucinations and amplify emotions such as fear and paranoia until the target is driven mad. The "Pile," a cavity in the earth, is where failed experiments and uncooperative captives are discarded.

Each tunnel is carefully monitored, ensuring no one can escape or enter the twisted labyrinth without the Dollhouse's knowledge. The only way in or out of the Funhouse via teleportation is through the "Portal Room," a heavily guarded chamber near the entrance of the tunnel network. This room is protected by enchantments, making it impossible to bypass. Only those with the Dollhouse's approval can navigate this treacherous path, ensuring that the organization's dark secrets remain hidden from the outside world.[/cell][/row][/table]
