Located on the outskirts of Riverfall, The Sanctuary is a low slung rambling set of structures that house the city's stables, animal rescue/adoption center, and animal healer. Completely isolated to the east of the Bluevein River, Sanctuary overlooks the Suvan Sea perched on a relatively flat piece of land bordering the woods that are fairly common along the coastline. Having a good chunk of fenced pasture surrounding the facility, Sanctuary lies right off the road that acts as the main supply route down to the beach.

The facility itself is built in the form of a giant square with a large inner courtyard. There are two ways into the facility. The first is up a set of stairs leading directly into the healing clinic. The clinic itself has a waiting room, a place for philtering, an office, an exam room and various supply rooms. Above the clinic lies a second story living quarters with a fairly nice view of the Suvan Sea. Beneath the clinic lies a series of kennels, cages, and storage. Back doors open out into the courtyard which is also accessible through a gate which leads to the main road. The gate is flanked on either side by two low-slung buildings that act as assistant quarters. Forming the square of the courtyard are rows of stalls running down the north and west side of teh building, creating 16 spaces for horses. The inner courtyard is large enough for a riding arena and a small round pen, both of which is used for training horses and dogs.

Visitors are encouraged to drop by and visit with the animals that are available for sale. Currently there are horses, dogs, and sometimes unusual wildlife ready for new homes. The Sanctuary is

Services

Being primarily a healing center, The Sanctuary offers a wide variety of healing and medical services that range from wound treatment, disease prevention, birthing and whelping services, and herbal treatments. In addition to our animal health care facility, we offer extensive boarding of both pets and horses for the traveler and those leaving for travels.

Because we are a full care training facility as well, we offer broodmare services, stallion services, and riding lessons. We also have selected horses for sale and are willing to purchase healthy serviceable mounts to add to our stock for sale. We have any number of tack items for sale, as well as rations for horses and pets. Boarding is available and comes either full care (food, grooming, turn out, and stall cleaning) or Stall only (no food, turn out, care, or stall cleaning). Prices are always negotiable for exchange in labor or services. Sanctuary is also interested in expanding to offer a kennels and cattery. The mews has been built and Raiha will be in charge of selling trained raptors as well.
