Dershingham Vale

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife."-P&P "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age."-H.P. Lovecraft WE ARE NOW OPEN!!!

A succession of disappearances shakes up the town of Dershingham Vale. There are rumors of a strange, unidentifiable person that visits the same spot each night in Barrington Thicket, a forest located behind the Preston property. There they remain until dawn and seem to disappear completely and it has stirred up old legends about The Vale.

To find the culprit and bring them to justice, residents of Dershingham Vale must sift through lies and secrets and one constable is willing to solve this mystery even if it costs him his career and maybe even his life.

Will those that believe uncover the truth in time or will the become another Dershingham Vale legend?

The isolated, dark town of Dershingham Vale holds a secret.

At first the people of “The Vale” are resistant to the rumors and cold towards those who fall into its grasp. Those who have been trapped by the rumors, slowly find themselves drawn into a web of murder, secrets and perhaps, even abduction.

Can those willing to believe uncover the secrets of this town before it’s too late, or will their demise become yet another Dershingham Vale legend?

Hey guys I hope this little presentation helps you all (especially Les Mis fans who want to draw period-appropriate characters in dresses!). I understand that the 1830s in particular is a difficult era to draw accurately so please ask if you would like any more fashion plates or notes on the fashions of the decade. Also let me know if you want more!

[the-vale]

We are heading into this era! Some ideas for you all!

[the-vale]

There is an old legend about the land the Preston family just purchased at a rock bottom price. The family that used to live in the city is going to find out that they definitely need to do research before buying real estate in the country for a price that is too good to believe.

Can those willing to believe uncover the secrets of this town before it’s too late, or will their demise become yet another Dershingham Vale legend?
