A tall line of Plat'ae Thorn Trees line the beautiful red cobble stone path from the Keep proper towards the Black Rose and Black Lotuses Gardens leading to a magnificant effidice that soars a modest four stories that whips about the ocean born cliffs towards the faceward side of the Keep facing the main road. This is the Wysteria Ballroom so named for the beautiful bloom of earth. The Impa' of the Keep brought this bloom from one of their many adventures to that distant realm. Fragrant delicate lilac blooms enchanted the small daemons' eye and taste for natural beauty. Thus, the delicate flowers were coaxed over the years to creep up the sides of the silver trees and lace among the silver leaves and thorns.
On full moon nights, the Imajian Moons' radiant light shines down on the threes casting a shimmering glimmer that can be seen for miles away. The trees branches have formed a natural cathedral ceiling where their branches have weaved into a tight formation pattern providing a magic filled shaded walkway for midnight strollers.

Even in the light of the three Solarians, the tree lined walk way is breath taking. It is not uncommon for passer ways to get distract by the natural beauty of the lilac blooms peeking from the dense silver foliage that they stand in a trance like state for hours at a time. More adventerous souls have scaled the trees to sit atop the mesh network to take in the scenic beauty of the neary by woodland and ocean. Warm hued bronze colored marble stone benches with artisful scrollwork of creeping wysteria blooms line the tree lined walkway. The ever present murmur of fountains refresh the walkway.
The upper story of this building is made of from glass so that those seeking rest from a long night of dancing and merry making can rest their weary feet while enjoying the natural beauty of the area. A vaulted glass dome provides a glimpse of the glittering heavens above while glass soaring walls provide a glimpse of either the ocean, gardens, tree line avenue, or the nearby forests. Long ago the Keep's mages worked to induce the glass with wards so that it stands unscatched by the wear of time, storms, and high winds.
The outside of the building is a made of a special lilac colored marble stone lined with silver rich vines that criss cross the building in a spiderweb network. This stone was selected to match the natural beauty of the trees and creeping blooms. Master stonemason Impa' labored for years to bring to life the history of the birth of the Imajian Home World. The entire Birth Cycle Mythos cover the building from all sides. Under the certain play of light and shadows, the stone figures seem to come to life.
The insideof the building is colored in rich virginal white marble laced with a network of silver and bronze rich vines. The Wysteria Ballroom has a beautiful stained glass facade that faces the Ocean of Souls from ceiling to floor. The Image found on the tapestry is depicted on the glass work. However, glass scenery also depicts the silver trees and the Ocean.
The first level of the building hosts smaller meeting private salons and art galleries. The second level hosts the ballroom. The third level hosts the a small theater for theatrical perfomances and music recitals.
Just as the outside has been meticulous been beautified so has the inside. Inside one will find vaulted catherald ceilings whose arches have been plated in 24kt gold leaf. Scultptures of mythical creatures such as gryphons, unicorns, mermaids, and more grace the walls and corridors. There are small rest salons where the ladies and gentlemen may refresh themselves after long hours of dancing. Wine cellars and kitchen are always fully stock to meet any needs.
Outside are smaller gardens and gravel covered paths that lead to small pavillions and gazebos. There is even a large swan pond fringed by sleeping willows.
