Countess Vermyr Stelgi has inherited a substantial tract of land after the death of a distant cousin who had no other heirs. She moves quickly to spruce up the palace, hoping to make it into a summer home owing to the northerly quiet. That involves properly disposing of the departed cousin’s eclectic (some might say ghastly) collection, though some things in that palace might not appreciate being removed… -- Deathshead419
Like most buildings that had been in a family for generations, it was a heap of conflicting architecture. Varying portions of it had been raised, refurbished, renovated, rebuilt, and then left to run down. Some of it had potential. Most of it could use more than a little spackle or Tape of Mending. The Countess Vermyr Brigide Hester Stelgi, second of her name, decided to wait and see before she decided to raze it all to the ground.
Besides, most of it was very well-dressed stone.
