	Eden Estate The Eden manor is adjacent to Picco Del Drago. A visitor would need to ascend rolling hills of prairie grasses, sift through forests inhabited by some friendly, and some rather dangerous creatures, climb beyond grand mountain-ranges, travel over a natural bridge of stone, to reach Picco Del Drago. At times, the centerpiece and building is concealed by fog. The centerpiece resembles the head of a dragonic beast carved by nature, and the handsome structure situated beside it is Eden; it is a building that rises above the ground as a symbol of dominance, reigning over the whole of the territory. The head of the dragon is sometimes mistaken for a decoration to the manor, but Eden was actually built to be beside it when the master bought the tract of land. Nature itself is the decoration for the porch, and the true elegance of the building is in its lack of false formality, allowing nature to do its work. The exterior of Eden is of hand-wrought cream marble, with fine stone columns. Double elliptical stairways lead its way to the front doors. Upon pushing the front doors ajar, one could see the grand hallway, with twin curving stairways. The floor is of hardwood for the sake of its compact build and smooth appearance. Moving straight through the hallway, it leads into a lobby with a fireplace, guest rooms, dining parlour, breakfast room, kitchen, servants' quarters, laundry room, two storage rooms, library, art galleries, and a door to lead to the backyard. Nowhere in the estate is falsely adorned, disproportioned, or uselessly guady, each item manifesting genuine elegant tastes. The backyard leads away to a large hot-spring, playground, gazebo, horse stables, and pool. Moving upstairs, one would find themselves easily confused by the twisting stairways. The second floor has more of an enigmatic atmosphere compared to the simpler first level, with various obscure paintings on the walls. Windows allow an on-looker to glance out to view the surrounding natural beauty from different perspectives. The second level consists of an exercise room, ballroom, sports arena, dart room, trophy room, walk-in closet and master rooms. All guest and master rooms have their own showers, bath, window, fireplace, and furnitures. The highest level as one continues up the stairs lead off to the wine cellar and balconies around the magnificent shape of the house. A room is kept locked at all times, allowing no entrance save for the master of the estate. Servants clean and cook, with the head butler, Fidelis to overlook the grounds.	3	89	A Homecoming Sur...
