Welcome to Last August, home to the wicked and wonderful collection of mythical beasties and ever rising suspense! It has been quite a long time since Farha was once settled, and with the humans ruling over the tiny town where the remains of the magic live, something is bound to happen. Trouble lurks around every corner, death is never too far-fetched an idea, and always is the fear of being exposed rampant.
Once upon a time and very long ago, a beautiful place known as Farha lived. Mystics guarded the castle, and held onto particular powers of every kind, elves and witches roamed the streets, whilst talking animals crept in the forests. Every sort of fantastical entity lived in such a place! But on midnight of every full moon, something happened to the mirrors. They lost their ability to shatter, and instead, became unlikely portals into a Farha.
But with Farha demolished by the humans, after their massacre's on the illusionists, animals, and magic folk, few survived. Bedfordshire became the residence of what was left of the deserted land, though no animals remained. Instead, new species arose, vampires with peculiar habits, and werewolves aware of their state. And yes, the illusionists survived, but only just. Evil is always watching, and waiting to reappear. The dawn to the endless night of this untold story as yet to come.
Will Farha ever rise again, or will it always be just another fairytale?

Located on 2 Bedford Street, Woburn, MK17 9QB, this quaint little restaurant has an old countries charm. Modern British, and Modern European food is served here, and is nicely settled between the trunks of two weeping willows. Real place
If anything, Ladora is the only thing that keeps Homer Village alive. With small stores, restaurants, and a grocery store -- it provides the inhabitants of Homer Village everything to 'survive' upon.
Most of the Bedfordshire Population lives in the largest part of Homer Residences. With charming little houses from small to huge -- its a great place to live. Although it can tend to be a richy rich society, it is open to any kind of person that would like to live here. Large roads lead from each side of the Residential Buildings, all leading down to Downtown Bedfordshire.
With an exquisite fountain in the center, Homer Park is one of the largest attractions in Homer Village. It houses the greenest grass in the area and a plentiful amount of benches and the like; it's a highly social area for those who enjoy a more outdoorsy environment.
The highlight of all Bedfordshire. The parties, the drunks, the everything. Many shops align the side of this two-forked road. Traffic is horrible -- both with people and cars. Everything from clothing stores, movie theaters, and even restaurants dot the sides, making Mezza Square very popular for a late night out. Including bars -- which produce plenty of drunken inhabitants late at night. It is both extremely dangerous and horribly fun. A win loose situation.
Centered in, literally, the middle of Bedfordshire is the biggest park you could imagine. Its the trademark of all Bedfordshire -- a prized piece of property that brings many people out just to see it. Every single tree, flower, plant can be found in this park -- with little walking trails. All of the trails lead up to one area. What gives the park its name. A little stage-type gazebo is located in the very center, where every friday night are little concerts from small bands. Concert Park has also been known to hold small festivals and meetings.
The backstreets of downtown Bedfordshire could be considered the 'ghetto' if you will. Everything is destroyed, looking more like a garbage dump then any possible living quarters. With long dark alleys and criminals of all sort -- not many people even dare walk down these back streets without a nice little gun in their pocket. But the Back Streets hold more then just criminals. The blood sucking Lamia make their home here.
This cafe was originally built a few years before the hunts began and was run by a mated couple of Illusionists; as soon as the hunts began, they were among the first to be killed, and the place was taken over and remodeled by humans. Today, it is the most popular cafe in Bedfordshire.
This here ladies and gentlemen is where the Masked Christmas Ball is being held! Many other events often take place here, due to it's large space and equisit finery. Come one and come all to this lovely affair of hidden faces and beautiful places. This lovely gathering is being held by the Acrerbus Vampires.
To say that Bedfordshire is surrounded by a forest would be an understatement. Bedfordshire is surrounded by forest upon forest upon forest, excluding the neighboring cities, of course. Once you enter these dark, mysterious woods, you had better know the way you came, because it's one tricky maze of trees that all look the same laced with paths that don't exist.
This is a popular hangout for the humans due to the road that connects Bedfordshire and the lake. By night, however, it is usually populated by supernatural beings - normally vampires or werewolves, occasionally even both.
These caves have yet to be discovered by the humans that dig them up and such for a tourist-like attraction, but instead, the Dalen tend to live here if they are too frightened or 'wild' to live in Bedfordshire itself. There are several caverns, and most of them connect, though only through one or two paths. Very few humans know of its location, so it makes it the ideal home for paranoid and/or reclusive Dalens.
