Chapter 71: 71 Chapter 71

Bulky braziers attached to each of the twelve granite columns light up the entire throne hall and shroud it in a dark orange radiance. The humongous chandeliers hanging from the oblique ceiling dance in the flickering light while memorials look down upon the teak floor of this grand hall.

An ebony rug runs from the throne to the doors and is matched by smaller ones on either side of the hall while burgee banners with adorned sides cover parts of the walls. Between each banner hangs a small luster, all but a few have been lit and in turn, illuminate the statuettes of divine beings below them.

Slim, stained glass windows depicting divine beings are hidden by curtains colored the same ebony as the banners. The curtains have been adorned with emblazoned edges and fine patterns.
