A small brook winds its way through this tranquil garden, its babbling chorus enhanced where it empties into a clear pond. A miniature dock reaches out into the water, while climbing vines and ivies ramble over rock walls. Central to the garden is a simple shrine, an unadorned block of black marble, residing on a moonlit court of polished flagstones. An offering of wildflowers sits at the base of the block, and tall willows shade a long stone bench nearby. You also see a yellow-eyed forest wolfhound, a wheeled ebonwood dragon-shaped bin with a wide gaping mouth, a small fire in a soot-dusted lava rock pit, a gilded oak table set atop a quartet of wrought iron legs with some stuff on it, an intricate carved door, a granite water basin, a set of granite steps, a tranquil path and a pearly white marble monument.

[Onoir, Garden of Faith]
A small brook winds its way through this tranquil garden, its babbling chorus enhanced where it empties into a clear pond. A miniature dock reaches out into the water, while climbing vines and ivies ramble over rock walls. Central to the garden is a simple shrine, an unadorned block of black marble, residing on a moonlit court of polished flagstones. An offering of wildflowers sits at the base of the block, and tall willows shade a long stone bench nearby. You also see the Janarth disk, a yellow-eyed forest wolfhound that is sitting, a wheeled ebonwood dragon-shaped bin with a wide gaping mouth, a small fire in a soot-dusted lava rock pit, a gilded oak table set atop a quartet of wrought iron legs with some stuff on it, an intricate carved door, a granite water basin, a set of granite steps, a tranquil path and a pearly white marble monument.
