The Sept of Gaia's Steel is still going strong in Athens. Many of the kinfolk there teach at the nearby University. The Caern itself is in an impressive indoor mock-nature preserve. The entire top three stories of a twenty-one story office building were converted into a computer-controlled 'natural' environment with fruit and nut trees and bushes, grass, hills, and a small lake fed by a central fountain which comes up through the center of the entire building from the source of the Caern's power, an underground spring. The preserve boasts a few deer, squirrels, birds, and like small animals.
