the ruby plain...forgotten, abandoned, and left to fend for itself after the great war. the rest of the land rendered obsolete, the only way ruby plain survived was from the magical barrier that was put up by - well, they're not sure who. but whoever did it saved the lives of hundreds of innocent people. the ruby plain thrived for years and years, elves and humans living together in peace. generation after generation came and went, the little village growing into a hustling town that remained completely self-sufficient. and still the barrier hummed, inivisble and yet ever-present around the town, preventing entry and escape from the ruby plain.
what was once a haven now seemed like a prison to some, who wanted nothing more than escape and freedom. but some disagreed, saying that the barrier is the only thing that protected the town from harmful strangers and war. and who is to say that the great war still isn't continuing? tension is growing among the townspeople, and it looks sure to be ending in war or civil dispute. although there are those that remain neutral and try not to get caught up in the debates that happen all-too-frequently, there are inevitably those who are willing to do whatever it takes to get their own way. and that way would be developing a spell to disable the magical barrier forever.
now, there's only one thing left between civil war and peace, between freedom and safety, between the outside world and the ruby plain:
you.
whose side will you be on?

_the healer's headquarters.
this is where the healers converge, whether they are magical or not, to help the sick, hungry, or pregnant who travel here. all babies are born here, unless a healer visits their home. it's a large building built on a slope that faces towards the sun. moss covers the walls and doors, and it's a miracle that ivy hasn't grown over the windows yet.

_stalak inn
stalak inn is the more...distasteful of the two eateries in the ruby plain. there tends to be a lot more drunken rivalry, seedy women and watered-down beer here, but hey, if you want a good time...

_the pond.
the pond - a rare area of beauty within the town, where ducks gambol and, in spring, frogs hop around, scaring children quite accidentally. such is life, though.

_ivy temple.
this old building dates back further than anyone can remember, and is so named because of the ivy that trails up it's marble columns. historians reckon it was probably a temple, hundreds of years ago, but nobody can be sure.

_locksley park.
beautifully situated just in the middle of the town, this park provides welcome respite to anyone who wants to rest and gaze for a while at the poppies that are so commonplace on the ruby plain.

_town square.
the central meeting place of all ruby plain-ers, it's a large square next to the park in the centre of the town. at festival time, a great feast is held here and the sound of music echoes through the mossy pillars that surround it.

_market.
a confusing jumble of stalls, with hidden places where rats lurk when too much food is left lying around. however, for the rest of the time, children play in the nooks and crannies of the market, and their shrieks can be heard over the yelling of the merchants, trying to sell their wares.

_oak tavern.
so named after the trees that used to surround it, oak tavern is a family-friendly tavern that has fairly-priced food and drink. the thatched roof is prone to catching fire, though.

_wisteria walk.
the other residential road, wisteria walk is known locally as 'the road of flowers' because most of the elven population live here. from every window hangs a beautiful flower box, so in spring and summer petals drift softly down onto the road.

_the highway.
this road once led out of town, but now half a mile down the way, any travellers are unable to go any further. get any closer, and it feels like you're wading through treacle. any closer than that, and your body is retrieved the next morning.

_the forest.
there's very little of it left after many generations of people taking firewood, but what there is left of it is being slowly rebuilt. there's about a square mile of forest here, and it's growing all the time.
