The Silversun
The Silversun building is a large two story home that was originally built on the edge of the village. Due to growth in the village it no longer is on the outskirts but on the edge of the old and beginning of the new. As an older building it is made of stone as is most of the other older buildings in Ormrick. However, the new buildings are almost all made from wood.
It once was a home of a well loved couple named Faro and Adelheid Silversun. They had one son named Avion Kaith Silversun, who only went by Avion Kaith. He started a religion called Followers of Avion. Each year brings more Followers of Avion to visit the Silversun home. These pilgrims wish to visit the home of their founder. To see where he grew up, and supposedly learned magic. Many believe that the building holds a magical presence and brings good fortune to those that visit. The original building was a home. It has been remodeled. The ground floor is now designed to hold religious ceremonies and gather the pilgrims. While the second floor is the living quarters for those that upkeep Silversun. The keepers of Silversun are a hybrid couple that are followers of Avion. They live there until there are no longer able to care for the place then are relocated to a smaller home and taken care of until they pass. A new couple are chosen to take their place.
