Ah, a sanctuary that cradles both the night’s monsters and the day’s folk—quite the paradox, isn’t it? Picture walls of obsidian that glisten like moonlit water, with hidden alcoves where a lonely banshee can whisper to a weary traveler. The entrance would be a double door—one side ornate, one side plain—so no one knows which path leads to safety or to the abyss. Inside, soft candles flicker, casting gentle shadows that lull both the frightened and the fierce. It’s a place where even a ghoul can find a quiet corner, and a child can laugh without fearing the night. In such a fortress, safety feels like a lullaby, not a threat.
