Hidden amid the remnants of ancient structures which dot the Forbidden Lands of Floor Nineteen sits a particularly unkempt heap of scrap and timber which compose an unlikely hovel. Supposedly once a magnificent, mobile manor which skulked the expanse with is imposing mechanical appendages, its gears now remain fixed and its core dormant. When Oz overtook the home, he hadn't a clue as to how one could maintain it. The mechanics and their inner workings evading his understanding, and the sheer volume of space seemed overwhelming to keep in order. And so the structure stopped moving, then started falling apart, inside and out. Even today it continues to degrade further and further, and Oz wouldn't even know where to begin in any wayward attempts to restore it to a glimmer of its former glory. 

It once belonged to a Frontliner of great repute, one who knew what needed to go into its upkeep, who only gave it up as part of a lost wager against Oz in a game of bocce (in which Oz cheated, of course). How does one cheat at bocce? Your guess is as good as anyone's. It's a secret kept close to the vest and, for that reason, why nobody was able to call Oz's bluff and render the wager moot.

Upon first entering the abode, visitors will find themselves blessed by a surprisingly presentable kitchen and dining room setup. Every surface is still filled to the brim with clutter, and dust bequeaths every nook and cranny with an unsightly veneer of grunge. Dirty dishes pile high, countless scrolls and books and other artifacts fill the breadth of the dining table, and random food is strewn about with wild abandon.

In fact, it might be said that the longer one looks, the more the bedraggled mess unfurls itself right before their eyes. For you see, though he takes pride in his win, Oz has never known how to take care of a place of such magnitude. It is why its mighty gears rot is disrepair, and every corner appears to be piled high with more stuff than any reasonable person could know what to do with. Oz was always poor, and always went without, and hardly ever had anything.

And for all the flaws one might point out regarding the otherwise pleasant lodgings, this is only the beginning. Only a madman would lay the true depths of their depravity within view of the front door. As far as Oz is concerned, the state of his kitchen is acceptable, and any who might think otherwise are simply too haughty or snobbish to "get it." Not the sorts of folks he'd like to spend his time with anyway. There is, however, one standout amongst the filth.

The furnace sits as the solitary well-kept area in the lounge. Partially due to the hazards clutter around the fire might present, but also because it is a centerpiece that Oz is most fond of. If and when he escapes from the floating castle of Aincrad, he has every intention of pouring his life's work into possessing an identical centerpiece of his own. An eye-catching nucleus which draws attention away from the myriad flaws and onto something attractive and breathtaking. Something which provides as much warmth as it does strike a sentiment of beauty in the beholder.

Rounding the corner, newcomers will find themselves graced by Oz's home office. In stark contrast to the office tucked away in his bar, warm light fills the room and illuminates further dilapidation brought upon through Oz's inaction. Being where he conducts personal business as opposed to public, he nary imagines a prying eye coming to witness the cluster of books, scrolls, documents, and other knick-knacks which push the space further and further into abject claustrophobia.

Up the stairs which sit adjacent to the home office, one will find a hallway with various rooms off to either side. To most, not a single one of them would appear livable, as the clutter here vastly exceeds anything witnessed on the first floor. What's interesting to consider, is that things only started to devolve to this point after the attic found itself filled to the brim. Now Oz lives and sleeps among countless things which occupy virtually every space in his home. 

Moving the mess, cleaning it up, or dispersing it more evenly throughout the home would mean either putting in countless hours or days of effort, or making it more visible to any visitors (of which there are virtually none). A look into the rooms of Oz's hovel may give one a glimpse into an equally cluttered mind; one of a man filled with shame, personal neglect, and a longing to find something that makes him feel whole again.

Although Scalabis occupies a majority of the main island on the twenty-fourth floor, parts of the island remain wild. Just as Scalabis evokes Roman landscape and architecture, the lands surrounding it are meant to inspire thoughts of the Mediterranean: rolling hills and bright skies so cheerful that even the glum might entertain the thought of settling here, opening a winery, and forgetting their woes.

Nestled in these hills is an unkempt villa. Its size and distance from Scalabis rendered it unattractive to many buyers. First, it was far enough away from the scrutiny of guards that unscrupulous players could come and go as they pleased. Second, the house itself was enormous—almost unnecessarily so. The steep asking price didn't help either. On top of that price, most of the rooms would require renovations before they were useful. The house showed promise, but at the moment, it was nothing more than hole for which a player could dump col into.

And finally, Acanthus had that col.

Moog's Magnificent Mound

Plot Size: Estate (15 room slots, 4 storey max, 3 yard slots)

Located in a dimly lit side cavern near The Geode Cache, the area is bathed in a blood red hue by the prominence of blood crystals, and often replete with hostile mobs. Moog's Magnificent Mound is an amalgam of mineral deposits layered over top of the skeleton of a long-dead dragon-thing of some sort, its bones having petrified and become the host for the assorted crystalline structures sprouting from it in jagged, uninviting shards and spikes.  Moog thought it was a pretty spot with lots of shinies.  He likes shinies.

Moog's Magnificent Mound
Location: Floor 21, Near The Geode Cache (Unsafe Zone)
Plot Size: Estate (15 room slots, 4 storey max, 3 yard slots)

Located in a dimly lit side cavern near The Geode Cache, the area is bathed in a blood red hue by the prominence of blood crystals, and often replete with hostile mobs. Moog's Magnificent Mound is an amalgam of mineral deposits layered over top of the skeleton of a long-dead dragon-thing of some sort, its bones having petrified and become the host for the assorted crystalline structures sprouting from it in jagged, uninviting shards and spikes.  Moog thought it was a pretty spot with lots of shinies.  He likes shinies.
