Башни Баллисаггартмор, Ирландия.
Башни Баллисаггартмор построил человек по имени Артур Кейли-Ашер, владевший поместьем площадью 8000 акров, большую часть которого он сдавал в аренду арендаторам. Он зарезервировал около 1000 акров земли в качестве своего личного поместья, где построил свою семейную резиденцию Ballysaggartmore House. Сам дом был большим, но очень простым по дизайну.
Существует местная легенда, согласно которой Артур завидовал более внушительному замку Странкалли своего брата. Кроме того, его чрезвычайно амбициозная жена Элизабет хотела иметь такую ​​же величественную резиденцию, какую ее невестка называла домом.Поэтому Артур решил построить на территории поместья изысканные башни Баллисаггартмор и величественные въездные ворота/домик. Это был огромный проект, который был чисто показным и обошелся семье очень дорого.После того, как они построили эти безумства, они начали обращать внимание на строительство большого особняка на замену дому. Но они быстро поняли, что у них заканчиваются деньги.
Это было в то же время, когда случился Великий голод, когда люди голодали и едва могли позволить себе платить аренду. Артур Кейли-Ашер отказался заморозить арендную плату и начал выселять тех, кто жил на его земле и не мог позволить себе платить. После этого на него было совершено несколько покушений из-за его жестокости, а его состояние продолжало таять.
Когда Великий голод закончился, страна начала процветать, но Кейли-Ашеры продолжали скатываться в нищету. Семья быстро становилась банкротом и искала нового владельца для своего поместья. Кейли-Ашер умер около 1862 года, и поместье было продано ликвид��тором. Дом, сады и часть земель были куплены семьей Вудруф, а позже они принадлежали семье Энсон. Дом был разрушен поджогом во время Гражданской войны, а разрушенная каменная кладка была удалена в середине 20-го века. Один из домиков все еще использовался как частная резиденция в 1970-х годах.
Несмотря на то, что великолепные башни и домики Баллисаггартмора находятся в руинах, они сохранились до наших дней и теперь открыты для посещения.
Ballysaggartmore Towers, Ireland.
The Ballysaggartmore Towers were built by a man named Arthur Caley-Usher, who owned an 8,000 acre estate, much of which he rented out to tenants. He set aside about 1,000 acres of land as his personal estate, where he built his family residence, Ballysaggartmore House. The house itself was large, but very simple in design.
There is a local legend that Arthur was jealous of his brother's more impressive Strankallie Castle. In addition, his extremely ambitious wife Elizabeth wanted to have the same grand residence that her sister-in-law called home. So Arthur decided to build the elaborate Ballysaggartmore Towers and grand entrance gate/lodge on the estate. It was a huge project that was purely for show and cost the family a great deal of money. After they built these follies, they began to turn their attention to building a larger mansion to replace the house. But they quickly realized that they were running out of money.
This was at the same time as the Great Famine, when people were starving and could barely afford to pay their rent. Arthur Caley-Usher refused to freeze rents and began evicting those who lived on his land and could not afford to pay. There were several attempts on his life after this due to his cruelty, and his fortune continued to dwindle.
When the Great Famine ended, the country began to prosper, but the Caley-Ushers continued to slide into poverty. The family was quickly becoming bankrupt and were looking for a new owner for their estate. Caley-Usher died around 1862 and the estate was sold by a liquidator. The house, gardens and some land were bought by the Woodroof family and later owned by the Anson family. The house was destroyed by arson during the Civil War and the crumbling stonework was removed in the mid-20th century. One of the cottages was still in use as a private residence in the 1970s.
Although in ruins, the magnificent towers and cottages of Ballysaggartmore still stand today and are now open to the public.

Though Frodo looked about him on every side he saw no sign of the great stones standing like a gate, and before long they came to the northern gap and rode swiftly through, and the land fell away before them.

PSA: Know how Mizora sticks around your Act 3 camp and refuses to leave? Know how Mizora tries to get Wyll's dad blown to bits by spiders if you refuse Wyll's contract extension? Know how she's ruined Wyll's life for 7 years and been a pain for Karlach and for everyone else too?
Flesh to Stone. Sticks even through teleport, and if she fails all three CON saves, it is PERMANENT unless you use Basilisk Oil on her.
This way she can never hurt anyone else again (at least for a while) NOR can ruin the next few months for my fiancé Wyll and I.
Enjoy being a permanent fixture of the Elfsong Tavern, arsehole. Can't KILL her, but technically this doesn't qualify as harm. :)

Kayla Keating:
The fake person my family invented for faulty research to be conducted
The fake person my family pretended was the incest victim
The fake person my family pretended wanted research conducted on her “for science” regardless of the pain and trauma it induced
The fake researcher that my family refused to acknowledge was actually just Addie Keating, the real person in their family (all four-Keatings. Zaids, Stones, and Richters)
The fake name my family gave to Addie Keating’s body to torture
The real victim: Addie Keating
Both have one social security number.
Both worked the same jobs.
Addie Keating is the only one registered with the IRS, Xavier University, and University of Akron
Kayla is Addie is Q.
They are not twins.
Addie is just a crazy person. We’ve been saying it the whole time.
Most importantly, not the “addiekeating” user and not Kayla aka Kyla Williams aka Kyla Williams-Pavlantos-the terrorist pretending to be me (Addie ie Kayla Keating)
The body checks prove it’s always one body (Addie Keating’s) who was apparently given Kayla Keating’s name as a witness protection identity without being given any of the proper documents to embody this persona. Also terrible name is that was the real plan. Here’s the name of the girl you hate in your lab, stealing all your research, but don’t worry, we’re letting you keep the last name.

When trying to teach your friends cool new tricks accidentally turns into a business deal.
A small crack idea, but if lv 12 Mizora can be a patron, so can Greygold. Even adventure-accomplished Emps is flabbergasted at the 'how'. It's cool, nothing like a quick side-quest to fix that technical difficulty.
Anyway, I need Mizora to get fired from her job. I need Zariel to fire her lawyer. Figuratively. Literally. Both. Hunting her down is all good and reasonable but. How many other warlocks are under her belt that risk turning into lemures if she capooted? It's cool, team heart-of-gold can beat her at her own game.
