AllMother again requested images to help her picture what I mean. Again, none of these fit my view perfectly, but they are as close as I was able to find.in Laurel's Turn 10 submission she wrote:I propose the design for the Welcome Center and Visitors Gardens to the Council of Elders and Builders Guild. The design is spectacular; incorporating the natural resources of marble, sand, clay, and timber, with some of Brand’s brass he is using for the gates incorporated as accents. The Welcome Center itself is marble and brass, with columns and a domed roof. While modest in scope, it sits just to the right of the gates as one approaches them, offering a smiling face and welcoming hand to all who seek Twinsriver in friendship. Directly across the road to the gate from the Welcome Center is a marble lined wading pool with a marble fountain with brass jets, merrily spraying the curative waters of Twinsriver for any dust-worn traveler. Along either side of the road as the gates are approached are the gardens. Tiered in three levels on both sides, lush trees and flowering shrubs line sand paved trails wending through each level. Marble steps with brass accents showing designs attributed to each of the deities, spirits, or ancestors revered in Twinsriver ascend each side of the gardens, lined with clay planters holding more exotic plants which may need sheltering in extreme weather. The gardens may have been proposed as a means to welcome visitors, but I stress such beauty can and will also be appreciated by the residents of Twinsriver on festival and rest days as well, thus incorporating community as the heart of Twinsriver even as this park is built to welcome strangers.
