Realm: Estate Duran

Background

Family's Estate Duran for so long fascinated its wealth and luxury. A big territory gave a big profit, and in forests were a lot of animals. This territory passed from father to son over the centuries, before graph died, and Countess took estate. Then hosts didn't make balls and manufacture of wine stopped. No one knew what The Countess did in estate after husband died, moreover that she liked hunt. People leaved, but someone said that they didn't leave, they just disappeared. Then The Countess was burnt with estate. Though, even this is a big territory, no one wanted buy it for that bloody story.

"I was looking for a new cover and I came to unknown to place. Buildings around me were elegant, but in air was something worrying. Passed through huge plants, I saw a small building. It was kennel. And I went in. The great three-headed dog attack me, I barely could close a door. Ran as I could away, I came to burnt building. Here I found a way somewhere down, in dungeon. There I found lots of dead bodies and instruments of torture, and that smell burnt my eyes and nose. I will never approach to this place again…" – Benedict Baker's Journal.

Map: Shato Duran ruins

"Centuries-old estate, teeming with luxuries in the past. Now it's no more than burnt walls, but now somewhere from vine plantations reach the screams of dismay and pain. Or it's just hallucination?"

This map made from burnt mansion's ruins, a little terrace with destroyed fountain, and vineyards. In underground map has a tunnel, which is the dungeon where The Countess tortured her victims. An enter in there is in a mansion and vineyards. In garden planted grape, there a lot of walls, winded with vines and ivies. Also, in place where was shed now is killer's shack.
Two-levels mansion, which halls filled with burnt trash, a few holes that are consequences of fire; from second level you can go into balcony with broken barriers. Also, mansion's roof almost burnt, which covered the sky with stars and red color. Main enter in mansion is forked stairs, on the sides were some flowerbeds, in opposite of the facade is a gateway.

Map: Hunted lands

"A Shato Duran's kennel often was visited by hostess. Hellhounds, so called the dogs, those lived there. Hardy and bloodthirsty, they helped to The Countess in a hunt. But, only wild animals was bitten by them?"

A map is divided on two same sides: in the first side are buildings of horse stable and a kennel; in the second side is gate to forest, differing with transition into a little shrubs to the forest. This sides united with a gateway. H-shaped one-level building, united a wide-opened corridor, which united 2 blocks: a kennels and horse stables. Horse stables deserted, in some places barriers are broken, and in somewhere roof is fallen. Too it can be said about kennels, but there still live the three-headed dog, which sleeps. In both blocks you can enter from the outside and from a corridor. In kennel can be stairs to the basement. On the forest's side almost no buildings and ruins, only killer's hut with trees and natural landscape. A small hill, a few rocks and fallen trees.

Map: Died garden

"Big and grand labyrinth of hedgerow is in outskirts of Duran estate. Incredibly easy to lose yourself in this for forever."

Labyrinth's territory divided into small cells, which located randomly each match. Labyrinth size 5x5 those cells. In cells are fallen or/and broken colons, benches, and drinkers for birds. Windows is in walls. In the middle of the map is a greenhouse. In under the roots of a tree is always the basement. For plants in greenhouse no one cared for so long, that's why there anywhere a lot of grass and tree's roots went over the ground. On the greenhouse is a metal stair, that lead on the second level, where you can see the labyrinth from up. In greenhouse a lot of windows, through that you can go in. A small place around the greenhouse has no objects, and it is a lawn with tall grass.

    She's really cool and the effort put into this is amazing, very well done with the art. Blinding Survivors is cool, I don't know if 2 seconds will be enough but maybe it would be, either way great job.
