The Thieves Den was a stronghold of former crime lord named Tiberius Kane. Kane terrorized the crime lords of other skips to gain control of the entire Smuggler's Run. He would have done it too had it not been for a pair of brothers infiltrating his ranks and taking him down from within. They had discovered the fortress' location while they were in deep with Kane's forces. They never disclosed the location to anyone, they simply took their payment, and left the Smuggler's Run, keeping their new prize a secret from all thusly calling it the Thieves Den as a joke for pulling one over on the other crime lords.
The Thieves Den is hidden inside one of the mountains of Skip 1. The entrance when coming on foot appears much like a cave, however twenty feet inside the cave one would find a large blast door. The door was secured with a key pad and a thumb print scanner that records every person's identity should they try to use it. The compound was equipped with various types of countermeasures to keep it's location hidden and secure, including: 220-SIG Tactical Sensor Jamming Devices, Repulsorlift jammers, thermal dissipators, photon absorbers, and several others scattered throughout the facility. Each room was equipped with distortion field emitters to stop any conversations from being recorded from outside the complex.
There was a well equipped armory on site with all types of technology at the disposal of the former owner and his men, from personal cloaking devices to thermal detonators to blasters to knives, the collection is extensive. There is a large hangar and garage inside the complex that is accessible through a large cave in the side of Shadow Canyon behind the mountain. There also is a full medical ward located within the Den. In addition to these features there are several living quarters located within the complex and other living accommodation

Gliding away from the convoy and heading towards the fabled hideaway the girl subconsciously muttered
-Mórrígan-
"I've been here before...."
Landed she grabbed her animals and several cousins and ran to the entrance. It took very little thought... plus the key that she lifted from An Tiarna and she was inside the fabled Thieves Den

An Tiarna stalked over to the keep. Mórrígan was already in wait. He moved past her giving the keep a once over then turned back
-An Tiarna-
"This is ours"
Fear caused more problems than anything, so the Old man firmly believed. And with that he walked in motioning to the girl
-An Tiarna-
"Mórrígan!!! Get in here! Luca and Collins have the rest...."
The legends did not disappoint

The tidal wave came in quietly but the numbers were obscene. They stood waiting in a strange group mental-state of reluctant anticipation. Next cattle were herded in by dogs followed by swine and then personal artefacts behind them....

The stunned look on three faces, blessed by quite an eloquent color coordination, said it all. Welcome to your home, the Thieves Den

The set-up of a traditional village among nomadic peoples follows a similar pattern. Easily constructed and detachable these emphasize on mobility. Many distinct Variations exist because of tribal affiliation, class status, type of economy, outside cultural influences, and materials available. The primary indication of social status can generally be determined by size. The affluent tend to reside in massive tents made of the finest material. In An Tiarna’s culture was no different than any other nomad people. In The Thieves' Den this was unnecessary as the cave wall formed the roof in their own right. But the elaborate well constructed living space in the Den truly made the basic unnecessary. The established quarters and other facilitiesof the Den were restricted until they had been thoroughly cleared of traps. An Tiarna and his crew stayed in the spacious entrance hall. Quarters were created by using simple cloth walls to chisel out 'rooms' against the walls surrounding the central living area

The collective liquid capital of An Tiarna, acquired from gifts from private benefactors, protection rackets, gambling, legitimate trade, outright robbery, blackmail, drug trafficking, murder for hire, decades of looting, et cetera and so forth down the line, plus a cornucopia of stolen and hereditary artefacts now lie among the collective riches of the cave. Quite the formidable stash

The Old man brushed his hands
"Well that's that; the subterfuge should rid us of any unwanted heat. And protect our fellow rovers. Now down to living.... like the dead."
At that he barked a laugh then stood watching the refugees around him

Collins watches over his people. He has taken every possible step to make them as comfortable as possible. His Comm. rings incessantly and he answers
-Collins-
“Right, right….”
Collins pulls back from the Comm. wincing. Almost immediately following the Comm. link rings again and he answers then cuts the link and walks away. Reaching the Old man Collins speaks
-Collins-
“Both decoys are gone….”

An Tiarna heard Collin’s words. He looks down for a long moment then up again -An Tiarna-
“Such will happen… And we both knew full well what they would do.”

In a quiet corner Epona’s stall is positioned. A bed of soft straw is at center, with 4 bales of hay to the right and a handsome dresser, with all the necessities of a young lady. She is tended to with care by a live in nanny well trained in handling horses
