Out in the countryside around the Nexus, there was a mysterious cave near the village of Riverside. They tell stories of how no-one who ever enters the cave comes out again. They fear some sort of monster dwells within. But they could not be further from the truth.

That cave is no more. In its place stands a great domed building of white stone, carved in the likeness of a great sleeping dragon.

This building is houses the embassy of the Celestial Deliberative (http://celestialdeliberative.myfastforum.org/) to the Nexus.

The layout of the manse currently looks like this:

Each wing has many floors, connected by stairs and magical elevators; the hearthstone chamber is at the very top of the dome.

The hearthstone bearer (the ambassador, usually) can open and close doorways to other worlds using the power of the manse; by default, all doorways to other worlds besides the Deliberative's version of Creation are closed.

On the grounds of the Embassy there lies the partially-disassembled hulk of a military airship. It is empty of engines, weapons, and most of its other magitech components, but much of the basic structure is still intact.

Also on the grounds is a small building, following a similar aesthetic to the main one. It houses a teleportation device linking to HALO.

The current ambassador is Iron Princess Tetsuko (http://wiki.rpg.net/images/8/88/Tetsuko.png), a young Eclipse-caste Solar Exalt, recently returned from her duties to represent the Deliberative, and (if desired) the interests of all Exalted, in the Nexus.
