▪Did you hear something?▪
It's probably not long past noon, though you're unable to tell through the cold mist that surrounds you, and the dark clouds that conceal the sun. You find yourself at an old, but ornate, rusted gate that reads "MILBOROUGH". It appears to be the gateway to an abandoned estate.
Groves of trees dot the gently rolling hills, appearing to have once been overgrown before choking themselves out, dying of neglect. Obscured by the tallest hill is what appears to be an old cemetery, the tombstones themselves buried under creeping or dead vines. Small buildings are scattered across the property, possibly being tool sheds or small barns.
A narrow path winds its way up the tallest hill, leading to a dilapidated mansion at its peak. It is of what you guess is an old Victorian style of architecture. You can't exactly tell, but you estimate from the state of disrepair that this place must have been abandoned at least fifty years ago.
Your imagination runs wild. Why was all of this just abandoned? What dark secrets does this manor hold? Could it possibly be... haunted?
But most importantly, are there still any Pokemon around?

- This area is similar to Chapel Matryoshka in that you must roleplay to progress. It doesn't necessarily need to be long or skillful, just detailed in what you are doing and where you are going. I'll give you some options after your initial post, of course. I don't expect you to have to come up with your own floorplan of the place.
- There are other points of interest besides the manor if you so choose to explore them too.
- You may bring a Pokemon with you for protection. Some spooks may be harmless, while more powerful poltergeists may not like you being here...
- Please link to your profile in your first post if it's your first time here and it's not in your signature.
- Feel free to be creative with your posts, so long as you don't contradict something I've already said or give yourself something I didn't say was there. You can work with things I imply might be there, though. You can also search for specific things, but I decide whether or not you'll actually find it.
- The entry fee is $4. Let's just assume that covers the four Pokeballs you probably bought before getting lost out here. You won't be officially charged until the end of your adventure, when you use all four balls.
Will you venture into the Milborough Manor?
