Trinity Manor
Trinity Manor is the Freehold of Duke Murdoch of the Triangle.
Overview
Home to Prince Murdoch of House Dougal, Trinity Manor rests within a well-kept stone-fenced lawn on a quiet back street in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The house itself is unremarkable to mortal sight; to Kithain, the freehold looks much like the painted outer shell of an amusement park ride... perhaps for bumper cars... with depicting of stock car racing and cheering crowd. On the lawn are numerous metal sculptures of various inventions, the wheel (with lights on each spoke), a bobbin miniature oil derrick (painted a luminescent orange), and several dozen smaller pieces that turn with the winds or move when water flows across them.
Inside, there is a stone hall with several comfortable pieces of furniture set around a central glass table. Murdoch often has plans for one machine or inventor of another laid out on the table. The area serves as the duke' audience hall, though it is more frequently used for all-night planning sessions working on the motor of Murdoch's and Langolier's stock car. Both Langolier and Murdoch have bedrooms in the manor, and few larger chambers are kept ready for guests. Recently, the largest (and now most feminine) one has been occupied by a lovely satyr lass named Cissy. Beyond the stone hall is a ballroom that the duke never had use for... until now. Since meeting Cissy, he has refurbished the room in a bright green tartan and gold leaf (her favorites), and plans to hold a ball there soon.
