The Augustus Estate

The headquarters of the Lantern Society is located in the heart of Edison, on the prestigious Edison Island . The building itself is a testament to the society’s mission and values. Constructed from gleaming white stone and featuring large, welcoming glass windows, it is both a symbol of hope and a functional center of operations.

The entrance hall, known as the Hall of Light, is adorned with portraits of Lady Eliza Hartwell, Empress Sophronia II, and other notable benefactors. The walls are lined with plaques commemorating significant milestones in the society’s history. The headquarters include spacious meeting rooms, a large conference hall, and numerous offices where dedicated staff and volunteers work tirelessly to coordinate the society’s various programs.

One of the most striking features of the headquarters is the Dark Garden, a beautifully landscaped outdoor space filled with flowers, trees, and a central fountain that remain eerily dark in color through the month to burst into color during the full moon. The garden serves as a peaceful retreat for staff and visitors, as well as a venue for community events and ceremonies.
