McCoy's Palace

Although Lord McCoy's Palace (right) is an enormous mansion, Lady McCoy still demands that her own palace to be built anyway (left).

McCoy's Palace is the capitol of Bilibin and is the ruling house where Lord McCoy presides over the town and the surrounding lands. It is a grand, two-story structure lit by torches on the inside, and it is complete with two bedrooms (one for the Lord and one for Lady McCoy) and four observation towers.

Right beside Lord McCoy's Palace is the construction site of Lady McCoy's Palace, as she is not content living in the Lord's mansion, instead demanding her own separate house. This new building requires vast quantities of wood, and as such large areas of Kolima Forest were logged. Eventually, this demand for wood leads the lumberjacks of Kolima to take their axes to Tret, the holy tree, an act which mortally wounds him (and by extension the whole forest). This  coincides with the eruption of Mt. Aleph, which showers Tret in Psynergy Stones, gemstones which transforms his rage into an uncontrollable beast and gives rise to his ability to curse people by turning them into trees. This halts construction on the mansion indefinitely, much to Lady McCoy's displeasure.
