''"A hump of dark rock swathed in mist, like a hundred other Unterzee islands. But here's a grand house, windows aglow. Lawns, impossibly green and lush in the false-star light. Raked gravel paths. You stand on the dock as the sea nudges the ship's sides. An unexpectedly warm breeze carries the faintest trace of lavender."'' | |||
''"A rambling country house, perched on cliff-tops of a half-drowned Unterzee island. The gardens are beautifully tended. Nobody talks about the strange light that shines from the coast at night."'' | |||
''"Who lives at Hunter's Keep? Some say a coven of witches. Some say a community of cats. Some say the island is haunted by the spirits of disgruntled vicars."'' | |||

'''Hunter's Keep''' is the smallest island (or one of the smallest) in the Southern Archipelago. The island is inexplicably lush, and a warm breeze hangs over the grand cottage. It is inhabited by three young ladies - musical Phoebe, extroverted Lucy (Lucina), and mature Cynthia - who live in a single cottage and each have their own sad past. All three, it is said, are descendants of ancient Greek oracles. | |||
Underneath the Keep, deep in the cellars, a tributary of the Writhing River ([[The Fingerkings|writhing]] all the way from [[Parabola]]) flows. Weaker, since it obeys physics, but the Writhing River all the same. Perhaps this is even the source of the well water here. Worrying. | |||
