Liara leads you off towards the place, as Muno stays back, and starts to glow faintly in green as his essence burns, going about healing people. Liara mutters something under her breath, as a large building comes into view. There are a number of men, women, and children there, most in either old or makeshift clothes. At last count, they've managed to make it to about two hundred thirty people.<br/><br/>One of the older youths bows to Liara, calling her mother, before passing. "This building, we have found, absorbs large amounts of essence. Channeled in the right spots, it rings in such a way that the locusts are loath to move near it." She also shows off a few other places that properly channeled essence has effects. This seems like, perhaps, some kind of inverted manse if that makes sense.<br/><br/>There's even a 'hearthroom' that seems to be able to absorb truly prodigious amounts of essence with no effect.
