History
It is distinct from the Rose Point Forecourt which has grown up around the actual castle. Natives of this town call themselves the nasainirilin or "tenders of an orchard."
Geography and Architecture
The distance between the castle and village is enough that it takes the villagers several hours to walk it, thus Reese gifts Shoran with a horse.
Town
A small church opens onto a stone circle, and from it spreads a village green complete with small pond and charming shops and public halls. There is a daily market on the central greensward, and tame, loose birds (chickens and geese) wandering through that people like to feed.[1]
The Pad station has been installed in an abandoned house on a corner.

The town was originally build to hold at least 500 people. [1] Acorn now has a mixed residency of Eldritch, humans (from Reese's Martian family), Tam-illee from the Meriaen families, Harat-Shar attracted by Irine and Sascha, and a cross-section of aliens who'd arrived at Kis'eh't's invitation to join her research team.[1]
