A friend recommended a region to visit on Hawksong and I had it on my list. Finally I made time and what a beautiful installation! Memories of Dreams is the name and I was entranced as soon as I entered. The buildings on the region are in the Japanese style and surrounded with lovely cherry trees all in bloom and enhanced by the nearby brilliant red Japanese Maples. Poi swim in a pool nearby.
Visitors arrive at a lovely Pagoda displaying Japanese art on the wall and sculpt pieces. I walked to explore the island. Below the pagoda I spied Orcas swimming near the beach .
One breached while I watched. It is a beautiful place to sit and look out at the ocean using the windlight.
Yxes (Yxes Evergreen) is the creator. It looks like she is am artist who
cannot stop building. I met her and we sat to have tea in one of the
pavilions that is across a bridge from an island. She told me she has
two others builds so I went to see them. Here is the entrance to Dreams.
Explore and enjoy!
Well, as I landed I would say this is so different in concept from Dreams. It is called Morrigans Roadhouse. There were crows circling above as I arrived.. Walking through the large roadhouse I found more references to crows. First I was thinking it was a reference to The Raven by Poe but as I wandered the property I found several buildings that made me think,” Who is Morrigan?”
Ahha! I found that she was a Celtic Goddess…..”What is Morrigan the goddess of? The Morrígan is the Celtic goddess of war with her ability to stir chaos and confusion on the battlefield.
In addition to her association with war and death, Morrígan is also connected to fertility, childbirth, and motherhood. “. One of the ruins is all about her .
Be sure to take a walk though the area to see the distinctive foliage. And, below the roadhouse find the cave and wander there too.

That was not all. Yxes has another build to visit. “A picturesque coastal villa with an art gallery, and wine tasting room. Relax and enjoy! Dock you boat at the pier and wander through the fields of lavender... Located on the Mare Secundus, with access to the 7 seas..” It is called Kim’s Legacy.
This is a relaxing place . I visited several times to walk around and sit in the wine bar. Finally I succumbed and relaxed in the pool I found outside down the hill. Another lovely build by Yxes. This is a talented builder who loves to make new places. I wonder what is next.
