====The Dreamspire ∂====
*A constantly self-rearranging palace of colored glass and porcelain this manse is a masterpiece of art even in its truest appearance. But more than that it is a place of infinite illusions, tethered only to the imagination of the Hearthstone keeper and the manse's guardian, a powerful automaton of sophisticated Genesis-biothaumaturgy. Its twisted arrangement of rooms, corridors and decorations spell out koans and riddles designed to stimulate insight and finding one's way around requires either solving these or for someone attuned to it asking to be guided by the guardian. The Hearthstone's keeper of course has full control over the manse's transformations and can easily create a clear path.

====The Denandsor Terminal ∂====
*This huge glass building in a square near the edge of Denandsor has stood empty even before the Great Contagion. Before the Usurpation the Terminal was a hub of activity it's crystal screens listing thousands of destinations across Creation. Citizens of Denandsor could purchase cheap travel to anywhere and normally catch a gate after an minimal wait. 
*During the Shogunate the only use for the Terminal was for military operations, the Gate of Auspicious Passage network allowing armies to be moved with ease between major cities for peacekeeping operations and Wyld hunts. By the end of the Low First Age not even that could be accomplished as the Dragonblooded lost understanding of how to maintain the gates. By the time the Great Contagion rolled around the Daimyo of Denandsor was under pressure to knock the building down.

====Garden of Dreams====

Thousands of paintings and sculptures are set up throughout the garden each the gateway into a stored dream. Just a touch or a look and the laws that normally suspend such a thing fade and allow anyone to step into the exhibits. During the First Age and Shogunate the garden was open to all, the only cost imposed by the manse itself: A dream to add to its collection.

It was built by servants of the Great Maker during the Primordial War and adapted for use by other craftsman much later, after the adoption of the Great Geas. When Jadeborn craftsman deigned to visit the city they normally insisted on the use of this factory cathedral. After the Usurpation the factory still saw some use but the Dragonblooded only allowed the greatest of their craftsman within for fear of offending the Great Maker.

*This manse, claimed by [[Character:Dhiren|Natalzu Chandra Dhiren]], lies on the northwestern edge of Denandsor, and is a fragile-looking structure built entirely of thin walls of obsidian. Appearances are deceptive, however; the Earth essence flowing through the structure makes it impervious to physical damage. In the center of the mounting, concentric walls there is a great pillar , atop which is a turret bearing two medium implosion bows and one light implosion bow. At the base of the pillar there is a small hollow where an attuned character may find the hearthstone. The weaponry can be fired either by the manse itself using its automatic targeting system, or from the Central Manse.

====The Coal Fields ∂====
*These fields of black rock lie at the eastern edge of the city. Few remember how they got there but they were apparently the result of an ancient Fair Folk invasion which destroyed an experimental flame weapon the area. The resulting area was cultivated into a manse by a curious Dragonblooded Gens leader when he was ordered to send his men to do something about the cleanup. He converted the area into a type of manse for measuring the Valour of his soldiers, as they must charge across the fields random pyromantic discharges to the centre of the field and touch the Hearth chamber pillar. Ever since then it has been used for that very purpose.

*In the heart of the Forge district of Denandsor sits this manse. In the first age a thousand men worked the machinery in here smelting many different types of ore and magical material and then sending the finished metal to the many craftsmen, workshops and factory cathedrals of the city. Today the plant is only just again operational and a fraction of that work force does the job, many of the originals were mortals trained to the highest levels of thaumaturgy and metallurgy, who worked besides the automatons of the day with vast swaths of equipment to protect them from the heat. Today those people have been replaced with half-trained savages who mostly rely on the automatons as they desperately learn their trade.

*This manse is small and intimate. From the outside it appears to be a simple dome of red jade and smoky adamant, shrouded in thin clouds of sweet-smelling smoke. Inside, it is richly furnished and, from the explicit bas relief sculpture covering the walls, clearly intended as a romantic retreat. Unwavering candles shed soft light over the piled cushions and thick rugs, and the scent of incense fills the interior (unless the hearthstone bearer commands the air to clear). The kitchen can prepare wondrous meals unsupervised if given the proper ingredients, and there is a shrine to Venus on one corner. It has been claimed by [[Character:_Cerise_Rose_Thorn|Cerise]].

====The House of Every Armament ∂====
*The fourth and final Factory Cathedral built in Denandsor, this factory was built just prior to the Usurpation by orders of the Solar Prince of the City. Determined to arm those in his dominion with the most lethal and modern of weapons he had this built with little in the consideration to modern geomancy, though even in the First Age it was fire aspected. In the First Age it was said that if it was a weapon then this factory cathedral could create it. When the Usurpation came many of the troops that came for him were armed with weapons built by this factory.
*During the Shogunate the manse was redesigned to build weapons more in line with the times and to more importantly stabilise the manses geomancy. It still produced weapons of complexity and quality not seen in the Second Age.

*In the High First Age this grand building was a vast temple dedicated to the Unconquered Sun. But after the Usurpation the Shogunate redesigned those manses that recalled the rulers of the previous age. A militant Chosen of Serenity aligned with the Bronze Faction redesigned this manse to prove to the few remaining Solars free from the Jade Prison and their pathetic Lunar mates that their Patron and God truly had turned his back on them. She redesigned this temple as a vast whorehouse and brothel catering to the wealthiest crafters in the City. She desecrated the Temple in every way she could think of, including using the services of every being employed there in every room, just so when she next joined a Wyld Hunt she could truly twist a knife into their self-righteous souls.

====Denandmere ∂====
*This sprawling underground cavern was artifically created during the First Age to supply the city with water. Machinery lines one wall maintaining the supply up to the city, even as the underground springs flow up into the chamber and out along the current. The lake is remarkably deep, even the bioluminescence of the roots above the chamber cannot light all its depths.

====The Last Homely Home ∂====
*Located on the fringes of the city, this sprawling farm remains in good order, not overgrown even after centuries of disuse. The majority of this manse is made up of its neatly plowed fields; in the center of the fields stand a sturdy farmhouse and a barn. The hearthstone crystallizes in the farmhouse kitchen. The entire farm ploughs, sows, and harvests itself.

====The Hub ∂====
*Halfway between the Central Palace and the Terminal lies a Great Oak Tree in a large grassy square fenced by marble streets and marble columned banisters. The tree has a set of naturally formed steps which work their way up high into the old tree, It is in the branches that the manse truly is. Filled with a variety of natural traps to those not authorised to be here this is a relatively dangerous manse to those who do not know its secret ways. At the centre lies of a room of great comfort with naturally occuring fruit and access to water, comfortable beds made of leaves and a great control room made of twisted wood and crystalised water. And deceptively it is from here that this Manse controls the connected manses known as the Network, along with their artefacts the Many Modes of Transport. The leaves can act as screens and lights to allow this place to work at all hours and the hearthstone like the manse allows steady passage through the most complicated of places.

====Salar Novo's Last Rest ∂====
* A small multistoried house in the Northern Section of the city. This artistic wooden home is surrounded by a fair sized garden, containing a pond, paths and neat flowerbeds. The entire place radiates peace. It was constructed late in the Shogunate as a retirement home for one of the Greatest Artists and Doctors of that Age, the Wood Aspected Terrestrial Salar Novo. Salar himself carved many of the beautiful scenes into the beams and walls of his home, making the place not only a manse but his final masterpiece. A single grave marker lies in the centre of the garden, belonging to Salar himself which is where the manse acquired its name.

====Pagoda of Healing ∂====
*Comprised of a great tree subtly manipulated into forming a large wooded and paper Pagoda this was one of several such manses scattered throughout the City from the First Age. Those who were sick were brought to the place and examined by the doctors of the place who treated any ailment they had for little or no cost. Most are surrounded by a grove of Aspen trees, those too far gone for the Pagoda and her staff to heal end up buried under a new sapling. Those found in Denandsor today are full of bleached skeletons. Every bed full, unable to cope with the ferocity of the Contagion.

====The House of Sextes Jylis ∂====
A large grove, mighty gardens and workshops that extend for several miles. This Manse combines many different aspects of both the natural world and civilisation. Cultivated in worship of the Wood Dragon, Sextes Jylis, this manse has stood here for time immemorial. First constructed in the earliest days of the city it has always seen the most talented of carpenters, horticulturalists and herbalists pass through its mighty acres. Today it stands much as it has since its construction, workers beginning to flow into it called by the beauty of the place or the images of beauty in their head they wish to create.

====The Roots of All-Life ∂====
This huge system of bioluminesent roots steam all across the ceiling of a giant cavern deep below Denandsor. Below it is the Denandmere, the mighty underground lake that supplies all of Denandsor's fresh water. Almost all the trees of the city past a certain size lead here, if one knows how to access it. Even when it was constructed during the High First Age this mighty complex was a highly kept secret, only several dozen members of the deliberative new it existed at all. This was where the twisted genius of the Twilight Life Artificers truly took shape. It was here that the Blessed Mortals and Slave Races were constructed and initially tested before the few prototypes were shipped to more known facilities for unveiling. No Exalt or Mortal has stepped in this place since the time of Usurpation, though the places halls pulse and it awaits a new master.

====The Network ∂====
*This isn't really one manse, it is rather a series of 25 manses of the lowest rating scattered around the city. The actual type of manse tends to vary but all are Terrestrial Manses. Most take the form of statues or other features and monuments associated with their element and appear near major buildings and neighborhoods. This web network of manses is connected to the Denandsor Central Manse, the Terminal and the Manse which controls most of the Network: the Transport Hub. Each operates one major Artefact known as the Many Modes of Transport on set routes round the city. The Many Modes of Transport follow the Dragonlines between the various manses within the network and tend to complete a circuit once an hour. This of course makes both travelling and navigating the vast city much easier.
