The Grey Valen Headquarters

The headquarters of the Grey Valen is a large fortress hidden within a clearing within the fringes of Fraywood, far enough away from society to keep from being discovered. Here they hide away, training and researching and preparing for their next mark.   The fortress itself is built to be easily defended in the case their location is ever discovered, as the Valen have powerful enemies, despite knowledge of their very existence being less than widespread. It houses several fortified towers from which to fire siege weapons down on their enemies, as well as numerous traps around its fringes, and multiple anti-magic runes etched within its stones. More than anything else, the fortress is designed to be undiscoverable by magic, as near everyone who would seek their harm are powerful spellcasters.   Deeper within are large training grounds, vast libraries and record vaults of politics, guilds, and information about the outside world, and huge storehouses of food, water, and other essential goods that could last for seasons. Anything or anyone coming in or out of the fortress has to be handled with extreme care, lest anyone locate them or find out just how deep their operations run.   The headquarters also serves as the living space for all of the group's members, and as such has all the necessary amenities such as bedrooms, kitchens, and a recreational courtyard for physical games or other activities.   The fortress itself is very old, older than the organization that now owns it, and has been repurposed and modified notably over the years. However, the anti-magical protections have been in place long before the mage hunters that now own it were around: one of the major factors in its selection as their base once they discovered it in an old tome. It's unknown exactly who built the fort originally, or what purpose these magical protection initially held.
