The East Entrance Gatehouse

The road is narrowest on this mountain, and that is to help funnel traffic toward the gatehouse and East Entrance bridge. The gatehouse controls the flow of traffic over the bridge to where the road widens and leads to the city proper by use of the toll gate, an acacia-wood fence across the road that can only be accessed and activated in the gatehouse.

Visitors must first handle customs to determine the reason for their visit, as well as the inspection and recording of any goods with them, before signing the visitor registry with date and time of arrival. Once all the paperwork is in order, a passcard is handed to the visitor and the gate is lowered to allow them and their party passage. The next step to entrance of the city is at the first junction after the bridge, where it is determined by reason of visit which road to take.

The East Entrance Chimes

The Chimes are made of Nether Quartz and hollowed in such a fashion that striking them with a hammer or other tool causes them to ring. The chamber around them is carved so that it amplifies the sound, making them heard as far as the western outskirts of Yggdrasil.

They are part of the lighthouse keeper’s job, since they live in a position to see returning parties of importance, important visitors, and as an alert for anything hostile, be it weather or people. People living in N’Ra are taught the different tonal combinations and what they mean, so they can properly prepare for anything to come.

The N’Ra Lighthouse

The lighthouse is a familiar fixture in the N’Ran landscape. Travelers and residents alike know that if it remains lit, not only can they find their way back to the city, but all is well and right.

The keeper of the lighthouse lantern lives directly above it for ease of access and upkeep, and they also maintain and can use the as-of-yet-unbuilt quartz tube chimes that announce everything from the time to respected visitors to danger incoming.

The Overlook Cafe; N’Ra

The Overlook Cafe is a small establishment, and the first business in N’Ra proper and the only business set up before the gatehouse into the city itself. It serves a wide variety of drinks and snacks for those waiting in the queue through the gates into N’Ra and has been known to pass out complimentary warm drinks during winter.

It sports a tiered outdoor patio that overlooks the scenery below the mountains, hence the name, as well as offering a fine reminder of the ever-creeping presence that is Bermuda in the wild chunk all-too-close that seems to be growing every day.
