The Hartsook Inn was built in the early 20s and rebuilt in the 40s after being destroyed by a fire. Surrounded by massive redwoods, the inn became popular among celebrities like Mary Pickford and Bing Crosby. Buildings included the grand lodge, 50 cabins and two maintenance barns.

The Hartsook operated as a hotel through the 70s until burning down again. Today, the 4th Hartsook Inn, rebuilt in 1973, is closed. In 1998, it was purchased by Save the Redwoods League and in 2007, they sold it to the Heartwood Institute, who operated it as a retreat center.

Honestly, I don't know who owns the Hartsook today. It was last sold in 2021 but appears to be empty. It remains closed but is not abandoned. There is likely a caretaker still living on the property. Located in Humboldt County, near Garberville, California.

Endangered Indian sandalwood. British war to control the forests. Tallying every single tree in the kingdom. European companies claim the ecosystem. Spices and fragrances. Failure of the plantation. Until the twentieth century, the Empire couldn't figure out how to cultivate sandalwood because they didn't understand that the plant is actually a partial root parasite. French perfumes and the creation of "the Sandalwood City".

---

Selling at about $147,000 per metric ton, the aromatic heartwood of Indian sandalwood (S. album) is arguably [among] the most expensive wood in the world. Globally, 90 per cent of the world’s S. album comes from India [...]. And within India, around 70 per cent of S. album comes from the state of Karnataka [...] [and] the erstwhile Kingdom of Mysore. [...] [T]he species came to the brink of extinction. [...] [O]verexploitation led to the sandal tree's critical endangerment in 1974. [...]

---

Francis Buchanan’s 1807 A Journey from Madras through the Countries of Mysore, Canara and Malabar is one of the few European sources to offer insight into pre-colonial forest utilisation in the region. [...] Buchanan records [...] [the] tradition of only harvesting sandalwood once every dozen years may have been an effective local pre-colonial conservation measure. [...] Starting in 1786, Tipu Sultan [ruler of Mysore] stopped trading pepper, sandalwood and cardamom with the British. As a result, trade prospects for the company [East India Company] were looking so bleak that by November 1788, Lord Cornwallis suggested abandoning Tellicherry on the Malabar Coast and reducing Bombay’s status from a presidency to a factory. [...] One way to understand these wars is [...] [that] [t]hey were about economic conquest as much as any other kind of expansion, and sandalwood was one of Mysore’s most prized commodities. In 1799, at the Battle of Srirangapatna, Tipu Sultan was defeated. The kingdom of Mysore became a princely state within British India [...]. [T]he East India Company also immediately started paying the [new rulers] for the right to trade sandalwood.

British control over South Asia’s natural resources was reaching its peak and a sophisticated new imperial forest administration was being developed that sought to solidify state control of the sandalwood trade. In 1864, the extraction and disposal of sandalwood came under the jurisdiction of the Forest Department. [...] Colonial anxiety to maximise profits from sandalwood meant that a government agency was established specifically to oversee the sandalwood trade [...] and so began the government sandalwood depot or koti system. [...]

From the 1860s the [British] government briefly experimented with a survey tallying every sandal tree standing in Mysore [...].

Instead, an intricate system of classification was developed in an effort to maximise profits. By 1898, an 18-tiered sandalwood classification system was instituted, up from a 10-tier system a decade earlier; it seems this led to much confusion and was eventually reduced back to 12 tiers [...].

---

Meanwhile, private European companies also made significant inroads into Mysore territory at this time. By convincing the government to classify forests as ‘wastelands’, and arguing that Europeans would improves these tracts from their ‘semi-savage state’, starting in the 1860s vast areas were taken from local inhabitants and converted into private plantations for the ‘production of cardamom, pepper, coffee and sandalwood’.

---

Yet attempts to cultivate sandalwood on both forest department and privately owned plantations proved to be a dismal failure. There were [...] major problems facing sandalwood supply in the period before the twentieth century besides overexploitation and European monopoly. [...] Before the first quarter of the twentieth century European foresters simply could not figure out how to grow sandalwood trees effectively.

The main reason for this is that sandal is what is now known as a semi-parasite or root parasite; besides a main taproot that absorbs nutrients from the earth, the sandal tree grows parasitical roots (or haustoria) that derive sustenance from neighbouring brush and trees. [...] Dietrich Brandis, the man often regaled as the father of Indian forestry, reported being unaware of the [sole significant English-language scientific paper on sandalwood root parasitism] when he worked at Kew Gardens in London on South Asian ‘forest flora’ in 1872–73. Thus it was not until 1902 that the issue started to receive attention in the scientific community, when C.A. Barber, a government botanist in Madras [...] himself pointed out, 'no one seems to be at all sure whether the sandalwood is or is not a true parasite'.

Well into the early decades of twentieth century, silviculture of sandal proved a complete failure. The problem was the typical monoculture approach of tree farming in which all other species were removed and so the tree could not survive. [...]

The long wait time until maturity of the tree must also be considered. Only sandal heartwood and roots develop fragrance, and trees only begin developing fragrance in significant quantities after about thirty years. Not only did traders, who were typically just sailing through, not have the botanical know-how to replant the tree, but they almost certainly would not be there to see a return on their investments if they did. [...]

---

The main problem facing the sustainable harvest and continued survival of sandalwood in India [...] came from the advent of the sandalwood oil industry at the beginning of the twentieth century. During World War I, vast amounts of sandal were stockpiled in Mysore because perfumeries in France had stopped production and it had become illegal to export to German perfumeries. In 1915, a Government Sandalwood Oil Factory was built in Mysore. In 1917, it began distilling. [...] [S]andalwood production now ramped up immensely. It was at this time that Mysore came to be known as ‘the Sandalwood City’.

KTAW: Day 1—What We Love Most/Throwback

Good evening and happy Kiara Theron Appreciation Week! This post is definitely late, but for day 1’s theme, I’m sharing the character page I made for Kiki. After all, when it comes to what I love most, it’s her entire character!

Tagging @kiaratheronappreciationweek and the fantastic hosts @lizzybeth1986 and @sazanes!

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

Full Name: Kiara Afnane Theron

In Greek: Κλάρα Άφναν Θήρας (Klára Áfnan Thíras)

In French: Claire Théron

In Arabic: أفنان حكيم آل شَوْكَتْ (‘Āfnān Ḥakīm Āl Šawkat/Afnane Hakim Al Shawkat)

Nicknames: Kiki (Ezekiel), little owl (Hakim)

Noble Title: Lady Kiara of House Theron, Countess of Heartwood, RC

Charge and Colors: little owl; sable and argent (w/ or)

Epithet: The Gilded Lady

Age: 24

Date of Birth: April 30th, 1994

Place of Birth: Sorbier, CS

Gender: Cis woman

Pronouns: She/her

Sexual Orientation: Bisexual

Zodiac: Aries ♈️

Enneagram: 3.2 (w2; Performer)

Self-assured, energetic, and competent with high self-esteem: they believe in themselves and their own value. Adaptable, desirable, charming, and gracious.

Height: 5’4”

Race/Ethnicity: Maghrebi and Afro-French (Mandinka)

Nationality: Cordonian, French, Moroccan

Face Claim: Flora Coquerel

Education: Aurynn Academy; BA (Hons) in Government with a joint Political Theory and International Relations Concentration from Harvard University; MA in International Relations with a Language and Diplomacy Concentration from Vancross Institute

Favorite Color: gold

Piercings: double lobe; right tragus

Partner: Hana Lee (girlfriend)

Best Friend(s): Penelope Amarantos and Savannah Walker

Family*: Joëlle Theron (mother), Hakim Theron (father), Ezekiel Theron (older brother), Aaron Condé (maternal grandfather), three maternal aunts, two maternal uncles, Leïla Theron (parental aunt), Patrice & Aminata (maternal cousins)

*Maternal Lineage

Character Notes

Kiara’s middle name Afnane means “branches,” which I found fitting for a descendant of Rowan Thorn

Her surname Theron is an anagram of the original Thorne, which gained the additional vowel “e” over the course of the century following Cordonia’s formation and later became “Theron” after their house was exiled following their involvement in a revolt*

As the new heir of Castelsareillan, I decided Kiki should have a courtesy title to use and went with “Countess of Heartwood” to reference Bellmere

I chose the little owl as the specific species for House Theron’s sigil due to them being associated with Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and war (and thus found it an even more fitting nickname for Hakim to use)

The capital of Castelsareillan where Kiara was born, Sorbier, is French for “rowan”

Kiara’s enneagram is type Three, also known as “The Achiever”: the success-oriented, pragmatic type described as adaptive, excelling, driven, and image-conscious. She is a Two-Wing, who are generally more extroverted and charming than other type Threes, and her level 2 is the level of psychological capacity.

I head canon Hakim as being Moroccan through his father’s side, while Joëlle is ethnically of Mandinka descent

Credit to @lizzybeth1986 for Kiki’s face claim!

Many Cordonian noblewomen attend a finishing school their final year of gymnasium (Greek-equivalent to junior high) in preparation for their official court introduction, with Aurynn Academy being the premier

Of the ten languages Kiara knows, I included Vóreios Norse (an invented regional language of Lythikos) and Sabir (a pidgin language formerly used in the Mediterranean Basin which I head canon is still spoken); though she is fluent in all ten, they are listed in order from most familiar to least

Kiara’s tragus piercing is an old Castel tradition as the inner ear helps keep balance which is needed for archers; it’s now essentially considered a good luck charm

All of my character pages for TRR cast are of their status post main series, and like many others, I am a member of Team Hanara and imagine the two as having fallen in love over the course of TRR3

I also head canon that Kiara and Savannah were closer than canon indicates to flesh out both of their backstories

The only cousin named here (Aminata) is the one mentioned in canon whose wedding was missed

*Due to my lateness, please enjoy this extra bit of Cordonian history involving House Thorne becoming House Theron:

To avoid the Black Death, in 1344 C.E. all the kingdoms on the island of Pontios including Cordonia chose to close their borders. With exports severely reduced, this left the kingdom in need of becoming more self-sustaining, primarily in regard to necessities such as food. As such, a royal decree was passed the following year that all groves managed by hand would be replaced with apple orchards.

This included a major portion of Bellmere’s Heart Oak forest, and so commenced the Foresters’ Revolt. Unfortunately, despite the support of their noble house, the revolt was suppressed and Applewood was formed. The members of House Thorne were stripped of their titles and banished from the kingdom, and they ended up relocating to the northern forest south of the Blackspines. It would not be until two centuries later—due to their support of House Rys in the civil war—that the members would regain their status as nobility, now under the name House Theron.

Sandalwood, known for its fragrant wood and essential oil, has been highly valued for centuries.

Utopiaa farming process is easy and available for each person over registration & simple investment process. For more information, please connect to our 24x7 customer support.

Facts of Agarwood & Sandalwood Plantation Sandalwood refers to a group of fragrant tree species belonging to the genus Santalum. The most commercially significant species are Santalum album and Santalum spicatum. These trees are native to various regions, including India, Australia, and Indonesia. The heartwood of sandalwood trees contains valuable aromatic compounds, making it a prized resource. Agarwood is a response to certain fungal infections that occur naturally in Aquilaria trees. The infected trees produce a resinous substance as a defense mechanism, which eventually leads to the formation of Agarwood.

Sandalwood and Agarwood cultivation requires specific climatic conditions for optimal growth. The trees thrive in tropical and subtropical regions with temperatures ranging between 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. They prefer well-drained soils, moderate rainfall (around 900 to 1,500 mm annually), and a frost-free environment. Additionally, sandalwood trees require partial shade during their early growth stages. Sandalwood can be propagated through seeds or vegetative methods such as grafting or tissue culture. Seeds take longer to mature, around 15 years or more, while vegetative propagation allows for faster growth and quality control. Grafting onto rootstocks of other suitable species is a commonly practiced technique. Adequate care, including irrigation, weed control, and protection from pests and diseases, is essential during cultivation.

Sandalwood and Agarwood farming presents an opportunity for sustainable agroforestry practices. Planting Sandalwood alongside other compatible tree species, such as nitrogen-fixing trees, can enhance soil fertility and provide additional economic benefits. This agroforestry approach promotes biodiversity, improves ecosystem resilience, and reduces the environmental impact of monoculture farming.

Sandalwood trees are harvested for their heartwood, which contains aromatic compounds. Aquilaria trees are slow-growing and require around 10 to 15 years to mature before agarwood formation." sinking-grade agarwood" are considered the most valuable and command premium prices in the market. During this time, proper care and management practices are necessary to ensure healthy growth. The ideal time for harvesting Sandalwood varies depending on the region but typically ranges from 15 to 25 years. The trees are felled, and the heartwood is processed to extract the valuable sandalwood oil and wood chips. The oil is used in perfumery, while the wood chips find applications in incense sticks, carvings, and medicinal products. From an economic perspective, Agarwood cultivation has grown more than Sandalwood in a short time.

Hence, Sandalwood and Agarwood are the most expensive wood that offers income generation, employment, and trade opportunities, benefiting local communities and economies. Sandalwood farming can be highly profitable due to the high market demand for sandalwood products. The value of sandalwood oil and wood can vary depending on quality, purity, and market conditions. However, it's crucial to note that sandalwood cultivation requires a long-term investment and patience, as it takes several years for the trees to reach maturity.

Process: Once the soil is tested and we understand the need for organic fertilizers, we plant optimal tissue culture on the allotted plot. Agarwood and sandalwood trees require adequate water, especially during the initial years. Irrigate regularly and adjust the frequency based on weather conditions and soil moisture levels. Monitor the trees for pests and diseases regularly. We Prune the trees as needed to shape their growth and promote better airflow and light penetration. Pruning can also help in controlling diseases and maintaining overall tree health.

Harvesting: Utopiaa is offering clients to keep the plantation as long as they want to keep it. Agarwood and sandalwood trees are harvested for their valuable heartwood, which contains aromatic compounds. The timing of harvesting depends on the species and the desired quality of the wood. Agarwood is typically harvested when the trees reach a certain age (10-20 years) and exhibit signs of resin formation. Sandalwood is harvested after several years of growth (15-25 years) when the heartwood develops the desired aroma and oil content. Clients will have 1500% of ROI over the maturation of plants.

Preview from the Arcanium game cast compilation of how they met each other:

For a long, long time, the Chromatic Mountains had remained a difficult place for any mortal to traverse. The terrain was a dangerous network of slippery slopes and steep cliffs, of deep forests and deeper ravines. Furthermore, the magic in the area was strong and very capable of inflicting severe poisoning. To this day, people only know an estimated 21% of this otherwise beautifully otherworldly landscape.

The founding of Kaleidopolis was thus regarded as a miraculous settlement. At the heart of the city stood the aptly-named Heartwood Academy, an educational institution dedicated to the study and research of magic. As thus, Orbis came to know of this place as the Land of Magic, the paradise for any mage professional, hobbyist, or hopeful.

Jewel took pride in being part of this lovely community. She was a mere toddler when her family initially moved to the city; now in her forties she was a named mage, entrusted with the role of Head Spellcaster in the academy. She was once its student, curious of magic and her potential; now she stood before the younger generations eager to guide and inspire them towards excellence and proficiency.

Richard Gordon, founder of Quantum-Touch Organization, is a visionary and a pioneer. With 40 years of experience in the field of energy medicine, Richard is the best-selling author of ‘Quantum-Touch: The Power to Heal’, now published in 17 languages, and ‘Your Healing Hands – The Polarity Experience’, available in 10 languages.

While attending Christos School of Natural Healing in Taos, New Mexico in the 70’s, Richard discovered the power of working with energies and hands-on healing. This work led to a wide range of further discoveries as Richard began to explore all the energies around his hands.
