The Red Palace
By far one of the oldest buildings, barely outdated by the Grand Cathedral itself, this palace is the home and training grounds of the prestigious order of Hunters; Guardians of Humanity and the Elite force under the Elder Council's command. Beholden only to the highest echelons of their governing body these individuals live, train, and function as a independent guild which forms their own rules and codes of behavior centered around the order of Five people granted the title of 'Exterminator'. Something of a minor Elder Council in their own right these individuals are elected to the position and allowed to serve until they are deemed unable or unfit to do so.. or, of course, they are killed in service. To the order of Hunters there isn't much of a prerequisite for new members to join, most magics are entirely accepted by their order and the organization is constantly experimenting with new methods to do their jobs well, however it is actually quite difficult for most would-be Hunters to pass their trials if only for how absolutely brutal the initiate training is. Few of the sheltered masses realize that, though they certainly have power and respect as Hunters, most of the members face the harsh world outside and pay a steep emotional price for their privilege inside Eden's territories. This thread is for the Training Grounds, a courtyard towards the rear of the property that has a high ceiling and well-outfitted exercise area. A pair of sparring rings rest side-by-side near the far end of the space. Non-Hunters 'can' post here, they just need to have a reason to be on the grounds and be ready to defend themselves.
