Central Castle layout
Central castle of House of Dream has two floors. The bottom one includes living, storage and work rooms, and the second one is where all of the bedrooms are. It’s possible to go out to the roof. You access the roof from a tower with a staircase. On the roof there isn’t much to see other than grass and plants that are here to produce electricity for the household. There is also a smaller empty tower, and another larger one that contains a small reading room.

Life in the castle
Oh, I know, a castle sounds really luxurious and fancy, but the real life here isn’t as glamorous as you might think. These castles are mostly off-grid, with only the most basic electricity and plumbing. You “do your business” in an outhouse out in the field, and shower in a stream running round the castle. This is pretty much where all of the water needed for daily use in the castle comes from.
There are plants on the roof that provide some electricity for the household, but that’s just enough for the most basic use. The castle is lit by candle chandeliers, the stove works on logs and in the colder months the family can warm themselves up with the fireplaces.
All of this is ok though, because the family spends most of their days out, working in fields, and while at home they do a lot of handicrafts - most of the furniture, decorations, clothing and food is produced right here on the farm by its residents.
The houses surrounding the castle have better electric and plumbing infrastructure so you can always go to the village if you need anything. Here there’s also all of the farming machinery which comes in really useful with the amount of fields that the farm owns.
Farm’s products
The farms main crops are lavender and flax. Each can be used to make a wide variety or raw materials and products. The main exports of the farm include but are not limited to:
- lavender oil
- lavender cosmetics such as soap, shampoo, face creams and more
- household detergents
- flax seeds, flax flour, linseed oil
- linen fabric, linen clothing
Other than these, the farm also grows other crops for their own use, such as corn, soy and hemp. They keep livestock such as peacocks for eggs, and geep for milk and wool. In their free time they might do things like knitting and woodwork. They can also sell all of the surplus product from these activities, or trade them for other things they need. They also keep unicorns for help on the farm but also to ride them for recreation or getting to places.
