Tamatsiatik

Tamatsiatik is the name given to the place where the Few gather in the Northlands. The few miles leading up to it are saturated with Eyes and Ears, making it almost impossible to approach unbeknownst to them, as well as scaring away all mobile life: regardless of the time of year, the only sounds ever heard are made by the wind, the Few themselves, or anyone happening to visit. The "Spirit Village" itself is a large, multi-story building, continuously under construction and forever changing its aesthetic appearance: many Arms of the Few content themselves by building and destroying alternate parts of the structure, making it an ever-evolving complex that is never the same as when it was last seen. The Arms live here, as well as the Managers who oversee them; the Director can appear at a second's notice, and he often does, keeping a watchful and protective eye over the ones who stay there. His wife is also known to visit.
Originally an unremarkable stretch of boreal forest near the tree line, neither particularly hospitable nor noted for any migratory routes, the Few were gathered here by the Director almost immediately after their creation, in order to be away from the suspicion and wrath of the peoples of Mirilarin. It was secluded enough that no one paid them any real mind for a while, and the Northlanders never held the hostility and derision towards them that those of Asanon, Riolythe and Yeto did: they were merely spirits, beings of unfathomable ability and intent who now happened to live in a strange spot in the cold.
Over the years, Tamatsiatik, as named by the Northlanders, became something of a travel destination. People with questions and entreaties for the spirits come to parlay with the Few, and it is seen as something almost holy. The Director, for his part, does his very best to do well by these people, in recompense for their kindness in letting the Few live there peacefully. He still finds it somewhat hilarious that people ask him for advice though.
