The estate you might remember is where the Easter Egg Hunt is held annually. It’s a splendid manor filled with the finest of furniture and accouterments. Their huge table filled the room with the scent of flowers, fine foods, and good smokes.

While watching the dancing, others commented on the fine decor and pleasant surroundings. I can definitely state that Grand Duke Wilmot and Grand Duchess Von Teese put out an extravagant ball that was enjoyed by many. If they ever host another, I encourage any Antiquity populace to attend.
