* Air Aspect
* A twisting changing square cube made of shimmering walls of magic. The Manse is such a puzzle that not even the entrance is obvious.

The only stable place in the entire building is the Control Room where one can alter the features to aid in the casting of whatever the user wishes. The manse is also rumored to have a darker reflection which has not been witnessed since the Usurpation.

A bridge swings forward and through two of the streams which part to allow enterance. Within the manse is comfortable furnished and not overtly warm at all providing comfort for those it transports from place to place.

====Manse 3 (Gem of Desire)====
This transparent yellow hearthstone is shaped like a faceted heart. Once per day, the bearer can inflame someone with desire for some specific object or person. Such desires can range from a sudden thirst for any strong alcohol to a passion for a specific person. 

To inflict this desire on someone, the bearer’s player must succeed in a reflexive, resisted (Willpower + Essence) roll while the character is no more than 10 yards from the target. If the target succeeds, she is unaffected by this desire. If he fails, she feels this until the sun next rises. If he botches this roll, she feels this desire for the next week. For this duration, the target must make a Willpower roll with a difficulty equal to half the bearer’s Essence (round up) to avoid any opportunity to satisfy her desire.

This manse is called [[Once_more_with_feeling/Custom_Manses#Fragrant_Myrrh_Retreat_.E2.88.82|The Fragrant Myrrh Retreat]].
