#93 Major Sanctuary (220) Heart Sanctuary

A steady, pounding beat echoes throughout the dark, humid surroundings. The small area is comprised of four connected chambers, each enclosed by curved walls. Each surface is a dark sanguine color that reflects the ambient light as if coated with something thick and wet. A coppery smell pervades the area.

#94 Major Sanctuary (220) Deep in the Shelves

Hundreds of books and parchments fill the shelves that line the curved walls, encircling you entirely. While some are stacked neatly, arranged with nearly obsessive precision, others are in utter disarray. Several round cushions have been scattered upon the floor.

#95 Major Sanctuary (220) Snowy Escape, Sanctuary

Vast fields of snow stretch out before you in all directions, with few landmarks visible making it difficult to calculate your position in this winter wonderland. A large snowman, complete with a carrot nose, button eyes, and a red plaid scarf, sits off in the distance as if keeping watch over this snowy sanctuary. Providing ample heat, a roaring fire warms a bed of thick furs and melts the constant rain of delicate snowflakes.

#96 Major Sanctuary (220) Alpine Glade, Crocus Rest

Bright green grass sprouts from amid clusters of melting snow, their verdant blades a stark contrast to the frost that clings to the surrounding leafless trees. Vibrant white and lavender crocuses push through the frosty earthy in clusters of three and four, their nodding heads dappled with orange-yellow pollen, while sun-dappled boulders rise like islands amid the sea of spring-kissed grounds. A chill breeze pushes through the area, its source the not-too-distant white-capped peaks.

#97 Major Sanctuary (220) A Stained-Glass Solar Sanctuary

Stained glass windows, framed in pewter and ebonwood, decorate the conical ceiling, their brilliant patterns brought to life by the golden sunlight. Dazzling mirrors amplify the prismatic light as it filters through the room and creates dancing motes in the air, which is cool and clean. Storybooks and discarded dolls lay scattered about a plush rug, which has been placed before a banked fire.

#98 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) The Steadfast Limpet

A cozy azure rowboat floats lazily upon a pond crowded with lily pads, drifting aimlessly as the oars sit idle in their rowlocks. Tucked beneath the gunwale, ebon checkered peeks from beneath the lid of a woven willow picnic hamper, one side flipped open to reveal a cluster of ruby red strawberries nestled next to a pair of champagne flutes that lay amidst numerous small parcels. The plaintive cry of a whippoorwill provides the only accompaniment to the susurrus of waves lapping against the hull.

#99 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) Hayloft

Shafts of sunlight pierce gaps in the wide chestnut beams that form the hayloft walls, falling in narrow stripes across the many pale green piles of sweet-smelling timothy hay strewn about.

The quiet is interrupted periodically by the nickers and snorts of the horses below the floorboards and the faint squeaks of field mice amongst the bales.

#100 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) The Main Attraction

The polished brass pipes of a massive organ rise steeply, nearly touching the roof of this red and white striped double-peaked tent. A single ring flocked by rows of seats stands, its epicenter occupied by a small chair on which rests a tall, black satin hat and a coiled leather whip. The scent of hot, buttery popcorn is inescapable, and peanut shells crunch softly underfoot.

#101 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) Lornon Cocoon

A nebulous haze of swirling dark matter encloses you in an opaque, shadowy cocoon. Intense blood red tendrils flash outward in forked arcs within the walls of the greyed brume, casting a shifting crimson pall over the silent, shaded space within.

#102 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) Liabo Chamber

Ardently shining white light expands in broad panels that encircle the perimeter of the immaculate refuge. Barely perceivable to the eye, a speckling of variegated craters and ridges pattern the ivory-colored chamber, the pale tone-on-tone effect ensconced in a softly illuminated golden glow.

#103 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) Candy Shop

Racks upon racks of glass jars displaying varicolored candies, bonbons, and spiraling lollipops line three of the four walls of this confectionery. Floor-to-ceiling glass makes up the third wall, sunlight brightly streaming in and revealing a curiously vacant city street. Small circular tables are scattered around the shop, each bracketed by a pair of chairs with high curving backs and round cushions stitched to look like sugar plums..

#104 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) The Gentleman's Retreat

A crackling fire dances in the hearth before two enormous chestnut leather armchairs, each coupled with a small sidetray bearing an icy old-fashioned garnished with a candied orange peel. A faint haze of clove-scented pipe smoke lingers in the air, agitated into swirling tendrils by an errant draft. An onyx and ivory-checked chessboard rests atop an ebonwood table, its ornately carved pieces revealing a daring gambit by black.

#105 (New 2021) Major Sanctuary (220) The Gentleman's Retreat

A crackling fire dances in the hearth before two enormous chestnut leather armchairs, each coupled with a small sidetray bearing an icy old-fashioned garnished with a candied orange peel.
