uge braziers surrounding each of the sixteen soapstone columns light up most of the throne hall and bathe it in an orange glow.
The illustration of battles on the embowed ceiling dance in the flickering light while stone effigies and gargoyles look down upon the granite floor of this ceremonious hall.
A lavender rug runs from the throne to the doors and is matched by smaller ones on either side of the hall while forked banners with burnished ornaments dangle gently from the walls.
Between each banner, none but a few have been lit and in turn illuminate the wall paintings of late royal family members below them.
High, stained glass windows of mesmerizing mosaics are edged by curtains colored the same lavender as the banners. The curtains have been adorned with fine patterns and intricate embroidery.
