This village was built long ago by the first Nekomata's that settled here. They built these cottages to last for ages to come. Made from stone and sod. Putting a gate around it to keep out unwanted guests. It wasn't until many decades later that the paved roads were put in place of the gravel ones.
Dartanian's Villa - You can usually find the leader within his villa. Which is a rather large stone home placed in the back of the village. Dark stone on the outside and a lighter color on the inside.
Village Community - In the Village of Deva, the cottages are of various sizes. Large ones and small to accommodate a lone Neko or a family of them. These cottages are made up of stone, to be sturdy against storms. Most of them are connected but some are on their own.
Temple of Bast - Here is the Temple of Bast. The Goddess that started it all for the Nekomata. Having monthly gatherings at the temple keeps the Goddess close and the Clan closer. When you walk into the temple a large stone statue of the Goddess sits in the middle of the room.
Calico Stream - The stream that waters the village is Calico Stream. It lies just outside the gates of the community. Many Clan members come here to cool off during the hot months. Little ways down the stream there is a two foot drop off, careful though when the rains have come the current is strong in the stream.
Echo Forest - Echo Forest is a rather large and intimidating forest that got its name from the muffled echoes that can be heard. No one knows exactly what makes the echoes, whether it be animal or man or some unknown force. Do not try and find the source of them either, for they will lead you astray from the path and certainly lost.
Ridgeback Mountain - Every morning the sun peeks over these Ridgeback Mountains. They stand tall and proud. In the winter they are very dangerous and harsh to pass. In the Summer and Spring, they are calm and cool. Some herbs for the healing potions and pastes can be found here.
Celestial Past - A beautiful flat piece of land full of all kinds of vegetation. For miles the tall grass stretches on in an almost never ending way. This area received it's name because of the star littered sky that stretches over it at night.
Essence Garden - Beyond the village lies a field with almost every herb known to the Nekomata. Many Nekomata know how to make healing potions or paste with these herbs. So this field is rather well protected from thieves and other things that wish to cause harm.
Trading Post of Deva - Not to far inside the gate lays a trading post where outsiders can come to make trades with the Witches. The path to it is safe and can be seen easily, even at night but stray from the path and the forest might consume you. Inside this store you can find trinkets, herbs, and serums alike.
Prism Grotto - Deep in the mountains lies a labyrinth of caves. Caves in which have wondrous crystals in them. When the moon if full and at its high point in the sky shining just right to hit holes in the roof of the caves. Pouring in to give the crystals that reside in the caves a blueish glow.
Cursed Fortress - Dark presences can be felt around the Cursed Fortress as many humans brutally lost their life here during a secret invasion. Don't wish for anything too sinister within these crumbling walls as you may receive the biggest shock of your life. Being alone isn't recommended here, you may need another wolf to check you are sane.
Village Border - Here new members that wish to be a part of the Clan can come and seek acceptance. The gates that connect the large stone wall around the community are heavily guarded. If you should find it, which no human has ever found the gates, you will be asked questions to see if you would serve the Clan well. Should you fail the questions, the gates will close and you turned away.
