Alkwin

## Governing Body

Alkwin has one overall ruler or pair of leaders. Prior to the war in Nysha, Orson Blaker held this position. Rhydian and Leeya became Alkwin's leaders after.

In addition to the main leader, there is a leadership body. Currently, Faida, Noella, and Jaron hold these positions. Although it has never been officially declared, it is understood that Auggie and Aarys will eventually be seen as such.

## Camp Structures

* Clinic - The clinic consists of five examination rooms. The main bed is in the entry room of the clinic. The other four are private rooms that are used when the main room isn't available or when privacy is required. Linley was held in one of these rooms for three weeks when she first arrived in Alkwin. After the rescue of the Tainted from Eden, those who weren't emotionally stable were kept locked in these rooms.
* Dining Hall - The dining hall is the largest structure in Alkwin. It is where the whole of the community gathers for meals. It is also used when a meeting for the entire community is required.
* Meeting Hall - The meeting hall is a large room with rows of chairs that face the table at the front. It is used for meetings and planning that takes place in camp. There are two rooms in the back of the building that are not for common use. One of these rooms was used to question Refan's members when Linley was abducted. The other is kept locked. Inside is the map that is used to magically monitor camp and the surrounding area.
* Dorm - The dorm is one of the largest buildings in Alkwin. The hall running through it is lined with bedrooms on both sides. There is a social area at the end where those who live in the dorm can socialize, as well as two large restrooms. It is mean to be a transitional living area for those teenagers and young adults. Linley is the youngest known resident to ever move into the building.
* Schoolhouses - There are two schoolhouses currently in Alkwin. The original is where the children go for their lessons. There is a bunker under the building that the children are secured in when there is a threat to the camp. After the war, a second schoolhouse was built. This one is used for the abilities lessons that all Tainted members must attend until they have control over their gifts.
* Storage Building - The storage building is used for holding extra supplies. This includes clothing, weapons, and tools. The storage building was where Maizie took Rhydian for the conversation Leeya overheard.
* Workshop - Arrangements were made by Orson while the party was still in Nysha for a workshop to be built. Although not said, it is understood that it was meant to be a gift for Lillith.
* Library - The library was one of the new buildings erected after the war. It is currently being run by Faida and Aarys until the day Aarys is old enough to fully take it over.
* Houses
* Chicken Coop
* Pig Pens - As part of the trade agreement with Nysha, pigs were given to Alkwin. A plot of land south of the camp was cleared and fenced for them.
* Gardens - Alkwin has two gardens that supply food year round for the camp. To combat the Colorado weather, special housing is attached during the winter.
* The Lab - The lab is kept away from the rest of the camp. It is where Noella replicates and creates Healer supplies. The door is kept locked at all times, including when someone is inside. The lab was where Leeya and Rhydian's sons were conceived.
