All parent-less young are brought up or adopted off here. The walls are that of a clay-looking material [though is a bit stronger]. The floor is like cold stone. There are two main rooms; one for the mistress, the other for the orphans. The room for the orphans cubicles for each orphan adorned with a bed, a mirror, and a dresser. Ages range from months old to the ages of sixteen. Upon reaching 16, the youth are to leave the orphanage and fend for themselves. The roof of this place is where the shack part of it's name comes from, for it is but thatched.
