a dark gaping gash in a massive dead tree, Room 28, Lich #20324, go gash
Entry
| [The Coventry, Hollow] | |
| The tree opens up into an abstract circular space encased by craggy, natural wood polished to a golden finish, and a ramp carved directly into the oak climbs ever upward into the loftier hollow reaches above. Flameless candles that nevertheless emit a brilliant incandescence light the upward journey from their niches above the ramp, while drifting through the air are small motes of light in varying hues of soft blues and greens, idly bobbing in place to fill the tree with muted shades of luminescence. | |
| Obvious exits: up | |
One Room Up
| [The Coventry, Hollow] | |
| Tiny sparks of light drift through the air, swirling up from the lower level in a lazy, multi-hued spiral to bathe the area in soft illumination. Off to the side, a small arched window set above a narrow ledge offers a glimpse outside, and beneath the ledge is a natural niche in the wood. The ramp underfoot continues its gradual climb upward. | |

2 Rooms Up
| [The Coventry, Hollow] | |
| Set at intervals along the tree's enclosing walls are small squares of wood-framed glass, each displaying some manner of dried and pressed herb or flower, and set between each is a stout beeswax candle on an oak sconce. Though the candles are flameless, they glow all the same, lit from within by a brilliance whose source is not readily evident. About midway up this curve of the ramp, a crescent niche is carved into the wall, padded within by an embroidered cloth. | |
| Obvious exits: up, down | |

Tree Top, Center Room
| [The Coventry, Tree Top] | |
| The spiraling ramp tops out at a wide landing crafted of reclaimed wood, and an enclosure has been build among the wide-spread tree branches, incorporating natural features to support the structure. Overhead, luminescent orbs of silver and pale gold dance among the leaves of the limbs supporting the arched and latticed ceiling, from which swathes of argent-threaded cerulean silks are loosely draped. A half-moon marled oak table top has been affixed to a low-reaching limb to serve as a display. | |

Tree Top, West Room
| [The Coventry, Tree Top] | |
| Cerulean silk drapes in wide swathes from the latticework ceiling above, and tiny motes of light dart in and out of the leaves of the limbs incorporated into the oaken walls enclosing this space. Irreglarly cut shelves of marled oak are perched atop branches here and there to serve as displays, while a pair of woven grapevine baskets dangle from natural fiber cording fixed to the supports above. | |

Tree Top, East Room
| [The Coventry, Tree Top] | |
| The verdant drape of leaf cover here is thick, shading this section of the tree in a cool dimness. Minute glowing orbs flit among the branches, illuminating the shade with a light that is neither harsh nor overly bright. Tucked amid the limbs is a lavender velvet hammock with a square blackthorn trunk beneath, and a hand-stitched quilt is draped across the the back of the chair that sits off to the side. A circular rug of wool cushions the floor underfoot, and above, silver chimes of stars sing quietly with the slightest breeze. | |
