Description:
Arkuhn Farm is probably the farthest thing anyone could ever think of as being a farm.
The title of the building comes from both an off-handed comment that Alric once made to Danger as well as the structures central location. The Farm sits atop a massive plot of land purchased by Alric Kuhn, totaling a whopping two percent of Orron's total Landmass. That is to simply say, Arkuhn Farm's is one of the most isolated and singular structures that exist on the planet. To put it simply, the Farm sits in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by tall mountains, huge lakes, and massive ever expansive fields. The land stretches around Arkuhn farms, beautiful untouched and preserved, maintained by a group of hundreds of grounds keepers and wardens. The only other structures located on this plot of land are small cabins in which the groundskeepers and their families stay, each well provisioned and looked after.
The land that Arkuhn Farm sits on is plentiful, with several large fields being used to grow crops. These fields are all looked after by droid's and small teams of groundskeepers. Though the harvest is not plentiful enough to sustain entire planets, it is more then enough to feed the residents of the Farm as well as some of the villages just outside of the Farm's expansive holdings.
In short, everything around an on Arkhun Farm's is beautiful, productive, and untouched by the terrors of politics and war.
The farm itself, or what passes for it, is actually a massive castle like structure. The building forged and crafted from the finest stones quarried from a sight just three miles away from where the structure now stands. The stone was dug, shaped, and placed all within the land that Alric purchased. Those who worked there were paid well and given the option of either money, or a summary plot of land wherever they wished. Many workers took up the latter option, and were taken on as Groundskeepers of wardens of Arkuhn Farm's. The building of the structure itself went surprisingly fast, with droids and experienced laborers from Vanir Technologies seeing to a quick and dutiful construction.
Surrounding the immediate area of the Castle is a series of long stone walkways. These weave and snake through the surrounding lands, rushing over rivers, through forests, and across massive fields of grain and other crops. They lead for several miles into the land around Arkuhn Farm, stretching eventually into roads that travel to villages that lay miles away from the central Castle.
Before the castle sit several open fields, gardens, and an expansive river that stretches around it's base. These are carefully looked after by the farm's groundskeepers, each one maintained to perfection, though the process is seemingly almost natural.
The building itself is not the largest Castle in the galaxy, though it certainly is a sight to see. Undeniably there is an air of Naboo architecture to the structure, something that Alric has long expressed a taste for. The building itself has large rounded edges, massive expansive ceilings, and slow rounded roofs that seem to hold in place almost organically. The central structure of the castle is home to an expansive library, a huge dining hall, and of course a central ball chamber that is large enough to play an entire game of Smashball in. It is clear that the central building of Arkuhn Farm was built in the remembrance of Alric's homeworld Empress Teta. There is a clear aristocratic feel to it, with great chambers, halls, and viewing areas that overlook the lands before Arkuhn Farms.
Behind the Central hall sits a smaller building, constructed by order of Alric for Danger. This small hall, contains a garden. Though it is not expansive or massive, there is a distinct air to the chamber. It is topped with a beautiful glass dome, it's walls stretching with green vines, and it's inside filled with beautiful plants of the galaxy.
Before the great hall, directly in front of it in fact is a small longer building with surprising contents. While looking from the inside one might expect a grand chamber or another ball room, the inside of this smaller building is in fact...a very large playhouse. Inside of this building is a large pool, a holo-chamber, a room filled with holo-games, and half a dozen other things one might expect of a child's paradise.
Despite this massive amount of grandeur the inside of Arkuhn Farm is surprisingly homely.
Where one might expect to find tall stone archways they instead find warm hearths decorated with soft wooden tones. Where one goes looking for huge decorated windows they instead find balconies decorated in an almost simplistic fashion.
Though the outside of the castle is decidedly built to the standards of Alric Kuhn, it is clear that the inside was modeled to the tastes of Danger Arceneau. Indeed this is only reflected more so in the residential aspects of the Farm itself. The towers looped to the back of the central structure are kept as the Farm's main living space, these massive domed structures sitting almost always in the warmth of the sun. Every level of the tower is suited to an individual, each decorated and acting more as an apartment then a simply chamber or room. These apartments are all different, each suited to those who would live within.
At the top of the central Tower sits Alric and Danger's living space. These halls were decorated to the taste of both the Corporate Titan's. They hold warm color tones, fiery hearths, and large windows to peer out towards the land with. The penthouse of the tower is expansive, though smaller then their living space upon the space station. Each room within the tower's tip holds a small coziness, a sort of feeling of home that would make one want to stay even in the brightest of days.
Of course, the tower also has apartments for Lily, Rose, Myra(When she grows old enough), and even Lisette, as well as several lower chambers for any guests that may join them.
Arkuhn Farm, though it's name may be half a lie, is an amalgam of Alric and Danger. It is aristocratic, yet simplistic, imposing, yet beautiful. It is something that Alric created as a get away, as a home that sits away from the turmoil of the galaxy. A hideaway for only them.
History:
Arkuhn Farm hardly has a history.
The truth of it is that the Farm originally came about as an idea in jest. Alric and Danger have long since been a part of the galactic playground. Whether this is due to their strong political ties, their powerful corporations, or simply their collective need to be in the limelight there is a certain truth to the idea that Both Corporate Titan's have an incessant place within the Galaxy and it's affairs.
It was upon a trip with their youngest daughter Myra that Alric made a joke to Danger, the suggestion to buy a farm.
Upon this jest, as with so many that Alric puts forward, was built an idea. That idea was to eventually become Arkuhn Farm.
Through simple whim and will, Alric began to plot and plan. Through his vast resources, his connection with the galaxies foremost construction firm, and his immense means Alric began the creation of what would become Arkuhn Farm. He would picture it as the ultimate hideaway for himself and his family, a place that was a reminder of home, of life, of nature, something that would allow Danger and himself to simply...detach for however long they wished.
So the farm was built, and with a smile Alric began to wait for the right time to surprise his family.
Intent: To Sub a farm.
