The main hall was a room spacious enough to fit a couple dozen people and furnished in Avarice's favourite lavish style of seventeenth-eighteenth century Russian nobility. Instead of a single big table, the space was separated with several smaller ones, each of which had their own seating spaces and was placed at enough distance from others to create a feeling of privacy.
One table had four of Avarice's people something and exchanging words in hushed voices; they fell silent when JJ entered and followed him with cautious looks. On the other side of the room from them, Ghost was telling Panda some story, accompanying it with energetic gestures.
