Rooms

  Immense double doors crafted of thick black wood reinforced with dark

dark bands of metal is emblazoned with a grand scene and set into a black

archway.  They open into a massive cathedral of a room, imposing and without

equal, illuminated by two black metal chandeliers that hang over a royal

purple carpet hemmed with dark runes.  The carpet spans the full length of

the room, to culminate at the foot of a short dais leading up to a cushioned

throne that dominates the head of the chamber.



Grand banners and tapestries hang from the black blocky walls and dark

vaulted ceiling where wisping umbra and unseen things traverse the shadows,

many depicting ancient battles and scenes of unfamiliar places, while others

display crests or demons in acts of violence.  In the spaces to the left and

right of the carpet's sprawl are open areas for tables and benches and

spaced between these are four stone doorways that lead deeper into the

citadel's depth.  An archway across the grand hall reveals a spiral

staircase leading up.
