Anyone remember the name of the "house of illusion/magic" that looks simple on the outside but is magically and beautifully huge on the inside and where people can walk under a bridge as if the gravity was reversed...


 


I know its in the first 30 books of FR (2e) and that its not in the Drizzt series... its either Alias, Cadderly or in the Phlan trilogy...


 


I know its not Drizzt nor in the The Druidhome Trilogy


 


I need the name of the House and its master

This would probably get more response on the Realmslore forum than here.

Other than that, sorry, no reference.

Im pretty sure the bridge your talking about resides in the city of Silverymoon. The only other thing I can think of that resembles what your explaining is from the Baldur's Gate game where this big Circus tent actually was much bigger on the inside and housed this crazy genie. Other than that, sorry man.

You might try asking over at Candlekeep here----> forum.candlekeep.com/default.asp

Oh yea, that sounds strangely familiar. I think it was the 2nd book in the series? Streams of Silver.

Yeah, sounds like the Harpells of Longsaddle to me too.

"The housing for your horses is in that building," he said, pointing to
one of the low, wooden structures. "The underbridge will get you there. I
must attend to another matter now. Perhaps we can meet later in the
tavern."
Wulfgar, not completely understanding Harkle's directions, stepped
lightly onto the first wooden planks of the bridge, and was promptly thrown
backward by some unseen force.
"I said the underbridge," cried Harkle, pointing under the bridge. "You
cannot cross the river this way by the overbridge; that is used for the way
back! Stops any arguments in crossing." he explained.
Wulfgar had his doubts about a bridge he could not see, but he didn't
want to appear cowardly before his friends and the wizard. He moved beside
the bridge's ascending arc and gingerly moved his foot out under the wooden
structure, feeling for the invisible crossing. There was only the air, and
the unseen rush of water just below his foot, and he hesitated.
"Go on," coaxed Harkle.
Wulfgar plunged ahead, setting himself for a fall into the water. But
to his absolute surprise, he did not fall down.
He fell up!
"Whoa!" the barbarian cried out as he thunked into the bottom of the
bridge, headfirst. He lay there for a long moment, unable to get his
bearings, flat on his back against the bottom of the bridge, looking down
instead of up.
"You see!" screeched the wizard. "The underbridge!"
Drizzt moved next, leaping into the enchanted area with an easy tumble,
and landing lightly on his feet beside his friend.
"Are you all right?" he asked.
"The road, my friend," groaned





Thanks ALOT guys... Its the Ivy Mansion in Longsaddle, owned by the Harpells wizards, "Streams of Silver"

bigger on the inside than it is on the outside? Hmmm methinks:
