After a moment of silence, those two doors swung open. They were held open by servants who bowed as Atlas passed by them.
The ground, walls, and ceiling were a dim gold color. It was formed into a uniform array of diamond patterns surrounded by dots that were arranged in different orders.
Those glyphs had meaning Atlas couldn't begin to comprehend, yet he felt as if he could sense the message being conveyed.
The floor was draped in black carpets that hid parts of the design. They were meant to be used as pathways through the room.
The majority of them led to doors and other important sections of the chamber, but the one that Atlas stood on…
It started at the door he entered through, and it ended at the black marble steps leading up to the platform that houses those two thrones.
One was black and jagged like the palace itself, while the other was made of a pure crystalline material.
However, only one was currently occupied.
