Ivory Estate
The Ivory Estate, formerly the Caro's summer home, has been owned by the Caro family for generations. Now, this lavish manor is the current residence to the Caro sisters, Sabrina and Isobel. Over the last decade, several security measures have been added to ensure the safety of the Caro House. In addition to special equipment to protect against siege attacks, there are also two heavily armed guards stationed at the front gates at all times. (Three rotations, so that the gates are never left unguarded.) A captain for the guards routinely monitors these men and the estate. There is also one uniquely skilled guard, rumored to be Lady Sabrina's personal body guard, that also patrols the estate. In the last year, the family has also acquired trained dogs that roam the grounds freely and will alert the guards if they encounter any possible intruders.
One would not simply walk through the gates and into the manor without being stopped, questioned, or possibly attacked. To safely gain access to the manor, one must be invited by a Caro family member and then escorted personally by a guard.

The Memorial Garden
The memorial garden is a place of both beauty and sadness. The harsh reality of losing a loved one is an unavoidable experience. Each person has their own methods for coping with this type of tragedy. For Lady Sabrina Caro, she finds solace in tending the memorial garden on the Ivory Estate's grounds. Each area of the garden pays tribute to a different deceased person. Burning flames honor the people Sabrina holds dear in her heart. Treasured mementoes can be found surrounded by the floral vegetation.
Baby Boy Blues
While Sabrina only vaguely remembers her deceased brother now, she still honors his memory in a hidden section of the Memorial Garden called, "Baby Boy Blues." As small children, Sabrina and Linus used to play hide-n-seek together. For this reason she put Linus' favorite hiding spot, an intricately woven basket, near the array of azure and cobalt flowers. Sabrina also put her brother's "nightlight" nearby. Lurius and Viola said that Linus insisted on sleeping with it because he claimed it would "keep Daedra away."
"Baby Boy Blues" is rumored to be tucked away because Isobel had a "meltdown" when she found out about the garden area. Allegedly, Isobel was said to angrily rip the plants from the ground by their roots. She was also said to be infuriated due to the fact Sabrina wanted to pay tribute to Linus Caro's memory.

Spirit of Alexis
Becoming best friends later in life, Sabrina has countless fond memories of Alexis. The two teenagers were inseparable, spending endless hours plotting shenanigans together. The duo would probably still be close if it wasn't for Alexis' untimely death less than a decade ago.
"Spirit of Alexis" is situated in the corner of the Memorial Garden and includes a small sitting area for two friends to share a meal and converse. Occasionally, Sabrina will enjoy a private meal or drink on the hand carved bench. The area is also perfect for curling up with a book. Alexis was known for her love of poetry and she gifted Sabrina numerous books on special occasions such as birthdays and holidays.
Although Alexis' death was ruled an accident, it is rumored Isobel pushed Alexis off the balcony in a jealous rage. Groundskeepers notice Isobel never ventures into the Memorial Garden.

Undying Love
The area dedicated to the Imperial Knight, Zeno Gravius, is roughly half of the entire Memorial Garden making it clear the level of importance the man had in Sabrina's life. The tragic lovers' tale ended with Zeno having his throat slit. To this day, Sabrina hasn't gotten over losing the love of her life and some say she never will.
Sabrina commissioned a statue in the likeness of her beloved knight. She often visits the towering sculpture on the way to the nearby Imperial tent. Often, when the lady struggles to slumber, she will curl up on the furs inside the tent. Perhaps laying on furs from beasts Zeno killed himself offer her some comfort on lonely nights.
People have started to whisper of Sabrina's morbid attachment to the past and her heartbreaking haunting history.

New growth in the garden is commonplace with each changing season. Sabrina is still mourning for Zeno and dedicates hours to the tending this section of the Memorial Garden. Fiery colors of red, orange and yellow seem to be the color scheme of this area.
Sabrina is still unable to speak of Zeno without breaking down and having to retreat so that she may be alone.
It is rumored that Sabrina still has hired men investigating the murder of Zeno Gravius. People whisper that she will not rest until she has claimed justice for her love.

The Barracks
Recently, Lady Sabrina Caro ordered the old barn on her property to be demolished. Isobel Caro had the entrance boarded up with a notice proclaiming it to be "unsafe." Sabrina decided it best to do away with the eyesore and make use of the space.
In place of the barn, Caro had a barrack for her guards constructed. The new living quarters are more spacious and comfortable the towers they previously resided in. The barrack currently houses seven men and a bull mastiff named Mallus. The massive mastiff is well trained and only responds to voice commands from trusted humans. The guards joke Mallus will attack any Argonian or Khajiit he spots.
