Caer Buillemilis, County Seat

Located within the Kingfisher Shores Golf and Country Club, Caer Buillemilis was home to the Duke while he stayed in Prospect. Upon appointing Countess Naevys to her position and with business taking him to the north, it was decided he would pass the freehold to her to be used as the new county seat for Lion's Reach. It is from here that the Countess or her Majordomo can be reached when needed by any Kithain or Kinain within the county.

History

Lion's Reach has evolved through the last few years with a rich and interesting past. A recounting of significant people and points can be found HERE.

Points of Interest

Seasprite's Mine

The main source of chimerical steel and other metals and gemstone for the Country of Lion's Reach lies to the north-west of the Grove of Tethys on the shore.

Spiderhollow Tree

Situated in a depression deep in the woods, a huge tree stands in a clearing, housing countless spiders in its branches and the surrounding spider-web covered woods. The creatures are vicious in their hunting, though have stayed mostly confined to the area surrounding the tree, with the exception of a couple of small groups that preyed on traffic on the silver path south of it. Rumors has it that some of the trees there can move and likewise will prey on kithain who get caught by vines or roots.

Smuggler's Cove

CountyLR-smugglerscove.jpg

A small deep cove connected to a cave where pirates and others have been known to make land to drop off goods. There's even the wreckage of a ship there that can be explored. Some say it was a pirate, others say a ship of Kelira's. The truth, is not exactly known.

The Loadstone Islands

The islands are part of the history of the County. The former Countess Kelira deforested the largest of the islands while building a fort on it, that was subsequently torn down by an invading force loyal to the new Count Leras and Countess Ionae. However it seems that a new Baroness has taken up the Islands after working out a deal with the Counts of both Emerald Dale and Lion's Reach and she has started working on the pirates who have taken residence there.

Ziggurats of Blood

Situated to the south-east along the coast, in the Jungles bordering on the Emerald Dale, the Ziggurats and it's Jaguar-headed humanoid Chimera have recently been 'claimed' by Lady Lezsara ni Eiluned, but after initial attempts of the sidhe to recruit kithain to her court progressed slow, news have been rare coming from the newly constructed freehold there.

Oasis of Steam

The far east of the County, over the Snowfang mountain, bordering on trods that lead deeper into the Dreaming lies the Oasis and a settlement of scorpion tailed humanoid chimera.
