The Ruins

At the center of the five territories is The Ruins. Much of the ruins serves as a clearing, but there are several broad, flat stones scattered about the area, most of which are squared off the way a piece of a twoleg nest might look. Some of these stones are at odd angles with the ground, and all around the clearing, the walls, though crumbling and covered with vines, are at least half a fox-length high, and are bordered by huge, branchless stone trees. At the very center of the clearing is a tall, square stone where the leaders will sit and make their announcements during Gatherings. (equiv. to The Island)
