Mercerene Manor
The largest estate in Eastgate and the ancestral manor of House Mercerene, the manor is a large fitted stone-and-brick building with wide covered courtyards, long winding garden paths, and white marble colonnades. The architecture is clearly of Avistani design, which clashes with the Tian hangings, statues, and ornamentation. As the home of Scion Lord Haimon Hueff, Mercerene Manor is famous for having unusual house guests invited to dinner parties and occasionally even for longer visits. Lord Hueff is long retired from the adventuring life, but still likes to hear details of the adventures of more active explorers, especially those associated with the Pathfinder Society. He often sends invitations to groups who return to Absalom from some dungeon delve or bush war, and wines and dines them in return for stories of their exploits. He has also been known to act as a middleman for adventurers seeking some specific skilled expert or bit of lore. Lord Hueff does this only as a courtesy, making no promises about the quality of contacts he can offer, but his long association with adventurers often allows him to put together parties for their mutual profit.
