Ashwood's Heir

{{user}} is the heir to the Ashwood family and the new owner of the old mansion in Ravenhall. After receiving an unexpected inheritance, he comes to the village to take up his rights and begin a new chapter in his life.

Ravenhall is a living world that exists independently of the player's actions. Characters continue to live their lives, residents discuss current events, and new opportunities arise even without active participation in the investigation.

{{user}} isn't forced to follow a specific scenario. They could become a family history researcher, an estate owner, part of the local community, involved in a romantic relationship, or simply someone trying to start a new life. All of these paths are part of the plot and can lead to different discoveries, relationships, and endings.

Before the events at Ravenhall, {{user}} life was connected to a person they truly loved. However, this story ended in tragedy. The loved one died, leaving behind only memories, photographs, and a sense of loss that {{user}} was never able to fully cope with.

After what happened, the world seemed to stand still. Many previous plans lost their meaning, relationships with others became more complex, and the past became a painful topic that one wanted to forget but couldn't let go of.

The unexpected news of an inheritance becomes the first serious event in a long time, forcing {{user}} to leave their normal life and travel to Ravenhall. Initially, the trip is perceived as a mere formality, but gradually, the investigation into the family's history begins to change {{user}} .

As the Ashwoods' past is explored, themes of family, loss, memory, and regret are constantly intertwined with the protagonist's personal history.

• Some of the letters found are reminiscent of one’s own past.

• The Ashwood family's stories of love and tragedy echo the experiences {{user}} .

• Old diaries make you think about how people cope with the loss of loved ones.

• Individual finds may evoke memories of happy or difficult moments in life.

• Some characters help {{user}} move forward.

• Others, on the contrary, force you to return to painful memories.

Gradually, the story ceases to be merely an investigation into a family secret. It becomes a journey that helps {{user}} reassess their own life, learn to live with loss, and decide whether they are ready to open their heart to new people.

The romantic relationships in the story develop slowly and naturally. Past love remains an important part of {{user}} life, but it doesn't prevent them from choosing their own future.

According to surviving documents, the Ashwood family lived in the mansion for over two hundred years. The family was considered one of the most influential in the area and owned a significant portion of the land around Ravenhall. However, many archives have been lost, and some records have disappeared under unknown circumstances.

Famous members of the family:

• William Ashwood is the founder of the Ravenhall family and the first owner of the mansion.

• Richard Ashwood - expanded the estate and turned it into one of the largest holdings in the region.

• Eleanor Ashwood - known for her charity work and funding of a local school.

• Thomas Ashwood was interested in family history and began creating a large family archive.

• Jonathan Ashwood is the last official owner of the mansion, after whose death the inheritance passed to {{user}} .

The family tree has only partially survived. Some names appear in old portraits and photographs but are missing from official documents. Several pages of the family tree have been torn out, and some entries have been deliberately crossed out.

The mansion contains many family heirlooms:

• old portraits of the house owners;

• photo albums of different generations;

• letters between relatives;

• personal diaries;

• property documents;

• family jewelry and memorabilia.

Photographs from the end of the last century are particularly noteworthy. Some of the images feature people who cannot be found in any family archive. Their identities remain unknown.

One branch of the Ashwood family remains a major mystery. It's mentioned in letters, diaries, and notes, yet officially it appears to have never existed. It's this vanished branch {{user}} likely belongs to.

The deeper the investigation, the more obvious it becomes that someone deliberately changed the family's history many years ago and tried to hide the existence of some of its members.

• Around 200 years ago, William Ashwood arrives in Ravenhall and purchases land on the outskirts of the village. Construction of Ashwood Manor begins.

• A few years later, the family becomes one of the most influential in the area. Most of the family's modern holdings are formed around the estate.

• Over 150 years ago - Richard Ashwood expands the mansion, adding new living quarters, a library and a west wing.

• Over 120 years ago, Eleanor Ashwood opened a school for local children and funded the development of the village.

• About 100 years ago - the first mentions of relatives who would later be excluded from the official family tree appeared in family archives.

• About 80 years ago, a major conflict occurred between family members. Some documents disappeared, and some relatives left the estate.

• About 70 years ago, one of the names disappears completely from family records. The reasons for this remain unknown.

• About 50 years ago, Thomas Ashwood began collecting and systematizing the family archive, trying to restore lost information about his ancestors.

• About 40 years ago, entries about the search for missing documents and hidden parts of the family tree appeared in the family diaries.

• About 30 years ago, several rooms of the mansion were locked. Only certain members of the family were given access to them.

• About 20 years ago - Jonathan Ashwood becomes the last permanent owner of the mansion.

• About 15 years ago, Jonathan begins his own investigation into the family history and collects numerous records about the family’s past.

• In recent years, the owner of the mansion practically stops communicating with the village residents and devotes all his time to studying the archives.

• Shortly before his death, Jonathan leaves a series of notes that hint at the existence of a hidden branch of the family.

• Present day - After the death of the last owner, the inheritance unexpectedly passes to {{user}} , who learns of the Ashwood family for the first time and becomes the key to uncovering its main secret.

The Ashwood Archive is a collection of documents, records, and materials that {{user}} gradually discover during their investigation. Each new discovery helps reconstruct the family's history and fill in gaps in the past.

As the story progresses, the following information may be added to the archive:

• Biographies of Ashwood family members from different generations.

• Dates of birth, death, marriage and other important events.

• Information about the owners of the mansion and the heirs of the family.

• Family conflicts, disputes over inheritance and breakdowns in relations between relatives.

• Mentions of people whose names have been removed from the official family tree.

• Old photographs with unknown family members.

• Personal letters revealing hidden connections between relatives.

• Diary entries describing important events of the past.

• Documents on the purchase of land, construction of a mansion and development of the estate.

• Materials about mysterious incidents that occurred in the family.

• Information about the residents of Ravenhall associated with the Ashwoods.

• Old newspaper articles and archival publications.

• Maps of the estate and plans of the mansion from different years.

• Information about secret rooms, passages and hidden rooms.

• Excerpts from church archives and official records.

• References to a lost branch of the family to which {{user}} may belong.

• Contradictions between different documents and versions of events.

• Information about people who tried to hide part of the family history.

The archive is constantly being updated with new materials. Some entries confirm already known facts, while others completely change our understanding of the family's past. Over time, individual documents begin to form a coherent picture, allowing us to understand what truly happened to the Ashwoods.

The more information collected in the archive, the closer {{user}} gets to uncovering the family's main secret and the reasons why part of the family was erased from history.

The Ashwood family has been part of Ravenhall's history for over two hundred years. During this time, numerous rumors, legends, and contradictory stories have surrounded the family. Even today, villagers rarely speak openly about the Ashwoods, preferring to change the subject or respond evasively.

The older generation treats the family with noticeable respect. Many remember the times when the mansion's owners supported the village, financed the church, maintained a school, and provided jobs for dozens of local residents.

However, there is another side to the story. Some believe that behind the outward prosperity lurked events that were kept quiet.

Ashwood Mansion rises on a hill near the village and is considered the oldest building in the county. According to surviving documents, its construction began over two hundred years ago, but some residents believe an even older house stood on this site, belonging to the first representatives of the Ashwood family.

The building is built in the Victorian style. High stone walls, narrow windows, massive wooden doors, and numerous turrets give it the appearance of a small castle. Behind the house lies an old garden, long overgrown with wild roses and ivy. Nearby are an abandoned greenhouse, a stone well, and a family cemetery.

The mansion contains over fifty rooms, many of which have been empty for decades. It includes a library, a ballroom, a winter garden, several former owners' offices, a spacious attic, and extensive cellars. Some rooms remain locked, their keys presumed lost.

The mansion is known for its unusual architecture. Hallways sometimes dead-end where old plans would have called for rooms. Hidden niches and passages are discovered in the walls. Some doors lead to rooms not found in the official plans of the house.

Over the years, many rumors have emerged surrounding the mansion.

• The house contains documents that could completely change the history of the Ashwood family.

• One of the owners disappeared under unknown circumstances and was never found.

• Several generations of the family deliberately hid part of their family tree.

• There is a secret hiding place in the library that no one has been able to discover.

• Some portraits depict people whose names are missing from all family records.

• Old-timers claim that once part of the family documents were destroyed intentionally.

After the death of its last owner, the house stood empty for many years. Now it belongs to {{user}} , the only known heir to the Ashwood family. Along with the mansion, he receives not only a huge inheritance but also dozens of questions, the answers to which lie hidden within the house's old walls.

The Ashwood Mansion contains numerous rooms that are missing from modern building plans or were closed off many years ago. Some of these rooms are known only from old records and family legends.

• The Closed Wing is a section of the mansion that was sealed off during the lifetime of one of the house's owners. Most of the doors here are locked, the furniture is hidden under covers, and many rooms look as if they were vacated only a few days ago. It is this area that is associated with the greatest number of rumors.

• The attic is a huge room under the roof of a mansion. It contains old chests, furniture, paintings, boxes of letters, and belongings from several generations of a family. Some items were hidden intentionally.

• The basement is a network of stone rooms beneath the house. Some of the rooms were used as a wine cellar and storage area, but some doors lead to areas not shown on any plan of the mansion.

• Caches are hidden niches and secret compartments found throughout the home. They can be in walls, bookcases, old furniture, fireplaces, and even under floorboards. They often contain documents, letters, and family heirlooms.

• Family crypt - located in an old cemetery near the mansion. Many members of the Ashwood family are buried here. However, some names on the tombstones are missing from the official family archives.

• Secret passages are narrow corridors hidden behind the walls of a house. They were once used by the owners of the mansion to move between rooms unnoticed. Some passages connect completely unexpected parts of the building.

Most of these locations remain inaccessible at the beginning of the story. As {{user}} investigates, they discover keys, documents, and clues that allow them to open new rooms. Each location discovered contains clues related to the Ashwood family's past and brings them closer to solving the mystery of the vanished family line.

Ravenhall is a small English village nestled among rolling hills, forests, and ancient stone roads. The nearest major city is a few hours' drive away, so life here moves slowly and has changed little for decades.

Despite its picturesque appearance, the village leaves a strange impression. Tourists are rare here, and many of the houses belong to families that have lived in Ravenhall for generations. Old traditions are still observed, and some local customs seem quite unusual to visitors.

Many residents remember the Ashwood family and worked for the mansion's owners for many years. However, conversations about the family's past often evoke an awkward silence.
