The Wren family farm sits just outside the village of Summervale to the west. A patch of land carved from hard soil and held together by routine and sheer will. It\u2019s not large, and it\u2019s far from perfect, but every board and fence post has been earned.<\/span><\/h3>

Here, the farmhouse creaks with quiet endurance. The barn holds more than tools. The shack isn’t just a place to store the winter gear, for some it’s home. And the westward trail? That\u2019s where things begin to change. This land has stories and not all of them have fairy tale endings.<\/span><\/h3><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Wren Farmhouse<\/h2>\r\n

Primary Residence of:<\/strong> Corren, Mara, and Thalia Wren<\/p>\r\n

The Wren farmhouse is a weathered but functional home near the south east side of the property. Built from hand-cut timber with a stone floor and chimney, it's modest and utilitarian. The medium sized cart in front is used for everything from hauling grain to town and supplies back home, it's serves as the families main form of transportion.<\/p>\r\n

The house has stood for almost 3 decades, sheltering the family through storms, seasons, and hardship. It's the first thing Stellan sees every morning from his shack and the last thing he looks back on when he's forced to leave it all behind.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Barn<\/h2>\r\n

Primary Use:<\/strong> Storage, supplies, cart gear, and temporary sleeping space<\/p>\r\n

The Wren barn is old but solid, made from the same pine and stone as the house. Its loft is cold, drafty, and uninviting , but it's where Stellan finds himself after being cast out by Corren. The doors are often left ajar to vent the heat in summer, and the structure creaks in the wind.<\/p>\r\n

Armor, farming tools, and old harness gear hang in the shadows of the loft, including remnants from Stellan\u2019s family. More than just a storage space, it becomes a symbol of isolation, but also of quiet resilience.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n
