Thorndale is a stately but isolated manor house in the countryside northeast of Frukendorf on the southern fringe of Marewood Forest. Built in the early 900s, the house was the seat of various local lords and ladies and is now the home of Curtys Vannin, a devious but influential member of the Senate of Evenhold.

The house is said to have been built atop an ancient dungeon or catacomb, though it's unknown whether the passages still exist.
