The switchback road that hugs the cliff is ten feet wide and covered with loose gravel and chunks of broken rock. The ascent is slow and somewhat treacherous, and the air grows colder as one nears the top.
At the far end of the walled hill you can see Even under gray skies, this pool at the north end of the village shimmers and sparkles. Near its shore sits an old gazebo on the verge of collapse. A wooden statue of a mournful, bare-chested man, its paint chipped and faded, stands in the gazebo with arms outstretched, as though waiting to be embraced.

Locals refer to the statue and gazebo as the Shrine of the White Sun, though they have no idea why their ancestors named it so.The gazebo is so frail that it wouldn’t take more than a strong wind to knock it over. It remains standing because it’s protected from the elements by the surrounding trees, walls, and cliffs. The statue is a depiction of the Morninglord, positioned so that he is reaching toward the east (the dawn).

Gentle-sounding music trickles down from above, played on a single stringed instrument by some unseen master.
The ground floor is one large, fifty-foot-square room with arched, leaded glass windows. A cauldron sits on an iron rack above a fire in a hearth, while above the fireplace mantel hangs a golden disk engraved with the symbol of the sun. In one corner, a wooden staircase climbs to the upper level, while in another corner a stone staircase descends into darkness.
Several chairs surround a wooden table that stretches nearly the length of the room. Wooden dishware and gold candelabras are neatly arranged on the table, standing behind which is a young woman with alabaster skin dressed in a torn and soiled red gown. Her auburn hair is neatly bundled so as not to touch her soft shoulders. She seems lost in her own thoughts.

(I was hoping it had a vampire killing weapon on it. Oh well.)
Is the gate locked at the abbey?Nevermind....I need to read. Skorn will open up the gates and go on through. He'll look around for any signs of life.

No it is wide open, Ireena went ahead towards the cemetary close to the main door.
You no signs of life out here, just the buried souls on the right hand side by the main door
Skorn goes straight to the door and knocks.

You hear the locks clink and rattle. No one opens the door but it gently opens a bit.
Skorn pushes the door open, but doesn't step through. Hello? Anyone here?

Mr. Greenleaf - Stepping forward to enter the warmth of this place "We're looking for a place to rest for the night and a safe place for Ireena."
Torvin will say: "Excuse me Miss, may we talk to the Priest or Abbot?"
