white rose manor
the estate of morgan's late great aunt mildred davenport. white rose manor is tudor mansion that was built in 1902. it has nine bedrooms, eleven fireplaces, and both indoor and outdoor swimming pools. the manor sits on 16+ acres of land. there are various secret passages throughout the estate, the purpose of which is unknown to this day. although, it was rumored that the manor was a hiding place for women accused of witchcraft. (cv note: titan tower sits just on the edge of the property.)
to my dearest morgan, i leave my estate in the berkshires.
"this has to be some kind of joke, right?"
"you've got to be kidding me."
when morgan was summoned to the office of her great aunt mildred's lawyer, she hadn't been expecting to leave with anything other than some old family heirloom. money would have been nice, a little nest egg to start the gym she's been dying to get rolling... but this? this is ridiculous. what the hell is she supposed to do with a mansion in the berkshires? move there? try to sell it? open a year-round haunted house?
well, the last one isn't exactly a terrible idea... she would have to revisit it later.
"there has been a small trust set up in your name for the purposes of property taxes on the manor, and i highly recommend you use those funds for that purpose--"
stuffy lawyer guy was definitely getting tuned out, because morgan was already thinking about the next order of business, which was a spooky weekend in the berkshires with friends.
what could possibly go wrong?
