The yard

Aerial view of the household inherited by the MC from his brother Joseph, showing the large central house with separate basement entrance/shed south of it, protective walls, entrance guard tower, a fully developed shrine, and five areas which can be developed in a variety of different ways.

The yard of the house and walled compound which the MC inherits from his brother Joseph is large, and can be improved in a number of ways.

Guard Tower and Walls

To the west the guard tower houses the gate into the property, and also quarters for the guard Captain if one is appointed. (Wherever the Captain is assigned to sleep, they are likely to revert to sleeping in the tower instead, to ensure they are on hand to immediately take charge in case the household is attacked by raiders.)

The walls are dilapidated and lack defences currently; they are easy to climb over, and to fall off. See Guard Tower

Shrine

North of the main house a small shrine exists. It is currently minimally decorated in ways that might be appropriate for atheism, but could be easily changed, or expanded.
