Harmaja Estate
Harmaja Estate is situated around a huge lake. On the other side of that lake is rumored to be the Forest Folk's Estates and Courts. No one has ventured there though and even the lake is used scarcely. In the estate, there live very little normal people. Only the Harmaja family and some of their servants are regular people, and even then their humanity is questioned. Apart from them, there lives a bunch of other kinds of creatures. There are speaking animals, animal-people and mystical creatures that are protected by the Folk and who live in the surrounding forest using the Estate as the place where to find food, seek help, and find employment if needed.
The estate itself is a group of stunning buildings. It looks like a mash-up of a Japanese estate and an old Finnish villa. The whole estate is self-sufficient and they have enough servants to run the households while most of the family does their work as priests and wandering warriors. Some of the greatest healers come from House Harmaja and many academics come from the family, even if it is less know how much they contribute to the scientific advances. Most of the family lives silently their lives, living in a calm harmony with the rest of the forest, not disturbing them and not being disturbed in return. They're an odd bunch and underestimated by everyone who hasn't seen their fighters or healers in action.
