General Description:
The Barrows are as their name implies buried and forgotten by the rest of Ternesjvorel; where the surface of the city-state is rich and well kept, the Barrows are dirty and forgotten. Unlike the standing stone architecture of the rest of the city, the Barrows comprise stone and wood architecture buried beneath earthworks. The homes of the farmer, the destitute, and the indentured all reside here, as, in times of war, these were the first homes likely to fall to the draconic threat. Each peaceful year the Barrows grow smaller, or rather, are buried beneath new architecture as the city expands into the surrounding regions for farming and the destitute are simply left to their cairns beneath the city.
In effect, one could say that Ternesjvorel has developed an Undercity as development has spread over The Barrows. And travel from any one region of the city to another can be facilitated discretely through the Barrows as quickly as The Main Road.
Architecture:
Unlike the other brutalist structures that surround The Barrows district, the Barrows themselves are a rather green space, with their architecture more inspired by nature, though still hewn from the stones and wooden supports. Covered in rolling farmland, the houses of The Barrows get very little to nearly no sun, but are cool in the summer, and easily warmed in the winter.
Housing:
With the assent of a Ternesjvorel Noble, one may purchase a home in The Barrows District; though dues for this process are paid to the [ ø ] Nobel Family Directly. The cost of a home in The Barrows District is 5,000 Mark.
tab Purchase of a Home in The Barrows District grants you leave to post one thread within the Home and Hearth subforum designated as [ ø | [Family Name] Barrow ] While threads in the Home and Hearth subforum should be relatively private, they are still under the protection of the [ ø ] Family if there is an intruder or a character who is too rambunctious.
