The household where Maya, Madrone, Bird, Nita, Holybear, and Sage all reside. When Bird and Madrone return to the city from their journeys, they go first to the house and in many ways the condition of the house echoes the condition of the family and the city itself. When Bird returns home, Madrone is semiconscious from her healing trances and the front of the house is decorated with gifts and candles, almost as if it is a shrine to the dead. When Madrone returns home, the door is locked, marking the changes to security that have had to be implemented with the Stewards' invasion.
