Palri Turris is a fairly large tower in the Liine Forest in the kingdom of Artipellin. It is located in the Artipellin county, on the lands of Viscount house Palenri, the homestead of the Baronet House Palri (whoose members frequently earn a Magus Diploma). Prato is the closest major town to the tower.


Description

The tower is located in a small glen in the Liine Forest and is surrounded by a 3m stone wall that doesn't seem all that soild. The main building is a fairly large and low round tower of clearly older make without windows, with a more modern looking top bit that is more slender and has a few, fairly large windows. The top of the tower is adorned with a blue inverse cone roof (similar to the Spire, but round).

The glen is quite small and only has a small area for growing vegetables in the back garden, inside the walls. A bit north of the tower, on a second hill there is a small grassy knoll where the few sheep owned by the Palri family are herded.

Most of the supplies used in the tower are supplied from Prato.


History

The tower was erected several hundred years ago and has undergone changes over time. It was originally built on a hill surrounded by grassy fields, before the Liine Forest enveloped it.

The tower has been owned by the Sickle for a few generations and the local Palri family are acting caretakers. The Palri family was originally a failing family, economically speaking, and was about to lose its estate and title when the youngest family member, Endri Palri became a Magus and convinced the Sickle to purchase the tower and surrounding lands.

The Palri family does have an official home Estate not far from the tower, but this is helt by one of the few tenants they have and takes (among other things) care of the family's sheep.
