The party gathers their final provisions and leaves a thankful, but worried looking Catlyn behind at the tavern and travel outside the limits of Daunton proper.

It is some time after leaving the city, the path seeming to take longer than anticipated, at least based on Catlyn's direction, but after almost 4 hours of travel following the landmarks identified, you spot something up ahead.

Gray and silent, what you assume is d'Argent Manor sits atop a small hill. The manor’s ivy-covered walls and broken windows carry a trace of the building’s former majesty. It is around mid-day, so the sun is shining brightly in the sky, only a few clouds trail through the skies. The windows are all boarded up and a quick survey of the outside (while staying in the shadows) reveals that there are two entrances to the Manor, one in the northeastern part of the house, and one to the southwest. The one to the north has many large beams boarding up the door, while the other has one of the doors ominously cracked open.

Agonized moaning comes from beneath the manor.

You spot movement behind the boarded windows. [/sblock][/sblock]
 

Malakai looks at the Manor with detachment. It was somewhat nice looking, but not anything to truly brag about (at least compared to some of the houses in the rich areas of Daunton), but neither was it something to scoff at either. Having just arrived and seeing that it was mostly boarded up, he did wonder what the reasons were for that, but nothing about the Manor's appearance revealed anything to the Tiefling.

Lerrick peeks around, looking at the structure, then looking up at the sky, then back at the building

Something catches her eye. Lerrick moves quickly towards Artemis. Uh...I saw something move by that window. She doesn't point, but nods her head slightly in the direction of the window.

"Sounds haunted, anyway," says Lilli quietly. "Nothing so gratifying as to having one's great expectations fulfilled upon arrival. Reminds me of a tale of that once great Allarian family, the Havisham's, and their haunted ma..."

Lilli's voice trails off as she hears another moan.
