Once the sprawling and extravagant Blackthorne Manor, this mansion has been cleansed, purified, and renamed after it's new owners, the Payne sisters.

Twisting staircases and marbled fireplaces abound in this gothic cathedral-like home. Mara and Michelle have each claimed a wing, where there is plenty of room for each to indulge in their chosen studies and work. An entire floor is soon to be dedicated to servants, as the servants quarters off the house were discpicable and have been demolished.

A happy and charming staff keep the sisters company while keeping this nearly pretentious home up and running; allowing for Mara to continue her study and training and Michelle to dabble and try to fix the ills of the world single handedly.
