Forums » Castle Ornasia » Grand hall

The entry hall to the castle, a huge black and white marble hall with red carpets that pave the way to the throne room atop a grand set of stairs opposite tbe entry, and paths that spilt off in different directions.
The crowd and multiple soldiers all walk into the castle's main grand hall; the largest room in the castle. in this room is pleanty of seating areas, decorated with magical flora, paintings of bloody battles and delicate diplomacy; both grand achievements of the two queens, amongst other bits and bobs.

"Aiight ev'ryone!" The Guard calls out once more. "Find a seat 'ere and wait patiently. The queens are preparing themselves to meet each and ev'ry one of yeh'". With that, he turns on his heel and walks off towards the throne room, atop the large staircase.
At this point in time, with the conversations in the room all moving and greeting as each adventurer makes acquaintance with one another, the doors atop the stairs burst open with a sudden creak then bang. A woman, tall and slender in royal red robes that trail meters behind, stands dominant and powerful a top the regal stairs.

"Greetings, adventurers!" She bellows out over the crowd that now falls silent. "It is with my deepest appreciation that you have all made it. I'm sure you are all aware of why I sent a summons, to help the growth of our beautiful kingdom of Ornasia by defending our walls from the local wildlife." She talks with a tall, powerful demeanor, her stature poses a strong natural born leader-like aura, standing tall over most average humanoids.

"As some of you may know the local wildlife have gone strangely mad as of recent times, becoming dangerous to my people and livestock. We are unable to determine a cause yet. So there is a large sum of gold for any who can bring a definitive answer to either the court wizard or myself."

At the mention of reward, some of the more "obvious" adventurers get a little rowdy as there eyes might as well have turned into gold coins. "So with the important information out of the way, I bid you all a good day. Should you have any questions feel free to leave it with one of the guards who shall pass it on. IF I feel it us important, than we shall make time to discuss it. Is everyone clear on what I have said?" She says finally with her hands on her hips. The crowd noise raises once more as some hum with agreement, others nod and others just sit quietly. "Good! There are four main regions of Ornasia- The northern forest, the eastern desert, the western tundra and the southern deadlands. None of these places are safe as of the moment, but the forest seems to be the most tame. The deadlands are by the far the most dangerous, so everyone be careful out there. I look forward to hearing from each and every one of you." With that she makes a small bow and turns back around to walk into the throne room as two guards close the massive doors behind her.
