Shrine of the Everglades
This place of incomparable beauty is nothing like anyone has ever seen. The shrine is located in the far side of the Birch Glade near the CloudClan border. It is a very small clearing that has thick walls of bracken and ferns that block out wind. There is only one true entrance which lined with ivy. A small thin trickle of a stream runs right through the center making a peaceful sound. The ground is covered in dark green pine needles, reminding those around it of the mountains. Basil, sage, and thyme are incenses kept at his shrine. A few items lay in the shrine. They are: an opal that shines like the light from aurora, bark from a rowan tree, a shiny fish scale, a tassal from a monk's robe, a intricate collar crafted of monastery hands, and lastly a few pieces of straw from a barn. Each item is special and holds a special piece of magic.
However, after the death of its owner and creator, the blood shed here seemed to curse the beautiful place. A single cat used to haunt this place, a black tom with a gray belly, electric-blue eyes, and a single reptilian wing with tattered skin. No one was allowed in. Those who trespass had life changes, from possession to madness to never returning at all. However, after the death of Auroradance, the Widowmaker, she seemed to have purified the Shrine so that it is visitable once more.
