The Sunk Arcade

Vitravale’s licensed gaming and tournament house, built into a partially buried commercial arcade exposed by shifting glass dunes.

Public abstract

Broad stairs descend to an older street level now below the surrounding dunes. Repaired mirrors and glasswork make the hall brighter and sharper than Mirecross’s Brass Heron.

House character

Sand collects in stair corners no matter how often it is swept, dealers use precise hand signals through the louder hall, and tournament plaques return distorted reflections.

Licensed play

The Arcade shares the basin rule that posted odds and settlement must remain legible. Its fashion and clientele differ from the Heron; its mathematics do not receive a regional exception.
