The Domes A little way off the path between the castle and the lake stand several half-sphere outdoor shelters, known as the domes. Made from a sturdy and clear, charmed material that keeps the temperature inside relatively comfortable, and the air fresh, the main purpose of the domes is a location to hang out, alone or with a few friends. They also serve as impromptu shelters during sudden downpours, cool relief from the summer heat, or a place to warm benumbed fingers and toes during bitingly cold winters. Each is accessible by a simple door made of the same material. No need to reserve them - just make sure no one is already there before entering! The domes are near to each other, but not clustered too close together. They are completely transparent; those outside can see in, and those inside can see out. Occupied domes will light up - though the light has no obvious source - useful and downright cosy on overcast or gloomy days. The groundskeeper, and any staff member looking out of the windows on this side of the castle, will be able to see the domes if they're lit up after dark, so unless you want to light the 'hey, look at me, I'm out after curfew' beacon, best not to come this way after hours. Tapio would rather not have to take House Points from rulebreakers (but he will). Each dome contains five comfortable chairs, and can comfortably hold as many students, maybe a couple more if you don't mind a tight squeeze. Try to refrain from seeing how many students can fit inside one of these things at once. Getting a score of kids hopelessly stuck will not have a good outcome for anyone, but it's up to you if you want to test that theory out for yourself. |
For Sarah! <3 Lily have heard people talk about the domes, how it was a good place to study or a nice place to get away from the busy crowd by the lake. Deciding to try them out, she walked towards the domes with a book in her a box of beads and other things used to make jewelry with one thing on her mind, making bracelets and necklaces! Humming to herself, she looked and seen that they were pretty empty, but then again the weather was getting cooler so maybe more people spent it inside now. Being from Lake Tahoe in the states, she was used to cold temperatures so this didn't even phase her. The autumn breeze rustling through her hair, she smiled loving the colder temperatures but she guess she came to love them due to where she was from. Choosing the middle dome, she closed the door and looked around it. It was very cute and roomy, just enough for her to sit on the floor and make some necklaces and bracelets. Sitting on the floor she took her box out that contained her beads and other jewelry making tools and set to work. |
