Bloody Trees Rhain Winters Vigil commissioned the
House of Barbs while serving as senator for Hercynia.

Overview

Once the House of Barbs is complete, it will create the title Voice of Barbs. This will be an Imperial title in the Synod, and will grant custodianship of a sinecure.

The title was established by a motion of the Imperial Senate during the Spring Equinox 379YE. The motion sommissioned the construction of a gathering place for Navarr guides in Hercynia; the House of Barbs. Once complete, a Navarr citizen would be appoitned to liase with these guides and represent them at Anvil (creating a sinecure.

History

Commissioned by Senator Rhain of Hercynia, work on the House of Barbs began shortly after the Spring Equinox 379YE but progress was slow.

The House of Barbs

The house is built after the style of a traditional Navarr wayhouse on the slopes of the Northpines in north-western Hercynia.

It was intended as a place where Navarr guides unable to attend Anvil could raise and discuss issues affecting them, or concerns related to their role as spiritual advisors to the Navarr people. It also serves as a place for stridings travelling through Hercynia to find spiritual guidance in the absence of their own guides. The House also acts as a point for the collection and forwarding of messages throughout Hercynia and beyond.

The House consists of a central meeting hall, communal sleeping area, kitchen, stables for oxen, and extensive wagon-yard. Separate from the main compound is a meditation labyrinth, and a secluded funeral grove. The grove includes a small memorial to the family of Senator Rhain who were laid to rest there long before the House of Barbs was constructed.
