Tonberry, Lavender Beds, W26 P24 | #EternalRestXIV
Located deep in the heart of The Lavender Bed's abandoned mining operations, this Gridanian-Hingan “inn” can either be a guiding light, or a gruesome front, for many a wayward soul. The nostalgic, warm lobby of the inn serves as a trap to lure weary adventurers into a state of comfort, with the lingering scent of unfinished laced tea ultimately being the only memento left in their wake.For those feeling the pain of loss or overwhelming guilt, some might actively choose to seek salvation in the presence of Lady Cynthia. They eventually formed a sisterhood to assist her in the depths below, partaking in a series of blood rituals, adventurer abductions, and grisly experiments, all in an effort to resurrect their loved ones - no matter the cost nor consequences to Gridania and its people.
Upcoming Events
Lady
Cynthia Stan
Once hailed as a prodigal daughter of the Stanislav and Shirona families, Lady Cynthia is now bound as the owner and sole operator of the faux ‘Eternal Rest Inn’.
20 years ago, hope died with her as she tearfully grasped the warm, crimson-soaked bodies of her family members, now lifeless and pale following a preventable incident caused by Gridanian supervisors within an underground mine site. Yelled, screamed and clawed as she might, she just couldn’t…she simply wasn’t skilled enough to resurrect her loved ones before the rocks set in to crush everything she had left. Desperation turned into an agonising acceptance, and she was prepared to embrace her own eternal rest in the ruins alongside her kin.
In her final moments, apparitions - or perhaps delusions spoke to her. It presented itself as the spirit of her deceased mother, miraculously protecting her against the elements and shining the literal light at the end of the tunnel for her to eventually find the surface.
Alas, did she truly escape that day? These visions never stopped haunting her even years after the fact, and mother beckoned her back to the site to ‘finish what she started’: to redeem herself through the forbidden art of experimental necromancy, and to purify the sins of Gridanians through rivers of blood upon her mother’s return.
That is what drove her back here, to singlehandedly clear out the rubble and resurrect it to its newfound glory - an unassuming inn designed as the centre stage to fulfill her twisted duty.
