The Moonsilver Manse
Abstract:
Dramatic Purpose: This should be related in some manner to the Scarlet Empress plotline, including information about the coming of the Ebon Dragon.
Metagaming Purpose:
Setting: Somewhat near the City of the Shining Reefs
Order:
Principals:
Specifics: An underwater quicksilver lake. Need to untangle the manse from some sort of machinations of those who follow Whose Whispers Chain in some way.

The Starmetal Manse
Abstract:
Dramatic Purpose:
Metagaming Purpose:
Setting: A mountain top outside Yane.
Order:
Principals:
Specifics: The top of the mountain holds a portal to the Starmetal Manse, not the manse itself. A ritual space exists on top of the mountain, and if the Calibration Gate is summoned there, the gate will open into the manse instead of into Yu-Shan. The manse itself is an asteroid observation base floating far above Creation.

The Soulsteel Manse
Abstract:
Dramatic Purpose:
Metagaming Purpose: Connect the circle with the Mountain Folk, in order to make the Jade Manse a bit more approachable.
Setting: Gethamane
Order:
Principals: Minions of Vodak, possibly Vodak himself, abyssals (either on the same quest, or looking for ways to exploit Vodak).
Specifics: Long before the solars originally hollowed the mountain, the place that would be Gethamane held the greatest city of the Nameless Ones. When Autochthon unmade them, some of the fallout spilled into the pit vacated by the city. After constructing the Soulsteel Manse in the pit, Autochthon made mountains to fill in the hole. These mountains never quite matched the surrounding stone, so numerous faults evolved, and these unwittingly made an ideal starting point for the solars who founded Gethamane.

Specifics: Just getting there will be the main threat, but potentially some "corrupted" essence flows. Possibly related to Ebon Dragon.
