Palace Description
A forest lies in the heart of a world, that spreads of leagues upon leagues in all directions. And in the heart of this forest a palace lies in wait. This Palace was created by a woman whose heart and soul was kind, and loving, with the intentions of giving a home to all those who passed that need it. Around the huge palace, for miles, the trees and paths have been enchanted and spelled. Those whom intentions are searching for something to destroy, something to hurt, will easily find themselves lost and wondering around for days, in large circles, far away from anything they could actually harm. But those who are lost, and in need of shelter, comfort, and a home will find themselves stumbling across a large emerald lawn, leading up to the doors of a marble palace, that towers over with a majestic beauty, walking through much magical energy that the palace and its grounds seem almost alive. Bound to the marble bricks of the palace, its creator had weaved many spells of protection and barriers, so that if battle found its way to the large wide mahogany double doors of the palace, she would be prepared. Spells that that healed the palace of any damage done to it over time, barriers, and defensive spells of many many sorts were in play. Many inhabitants had found their way to the palace, and never left. Everyone is welcomed here with open arms, no matter what species they are, or what they look like. Every new member of her family was a gift, a snowflake, and precious.
The Palace of Immortal has three wings and a main building. The North wing is where all the bedrooms lie. This is a two story wing and though not all of the inhabitants sleep here (for some have their own segments on the grounds for their families and children). When someone comes and makes the Palace their home, they choose a room. Every room has a large ornamented golden stand, with an glass colored egg in front of the door. Every room that Hiroko has access to is purple. These colored eggs are locks, and each person must bind to it in order for it to work. Hiroko unbinds with the egg, and the person gives the egg a name. To enter they must simply touch the egg and talk to it with their mind, call it by the name they've given it, and the egg will only work for them. The egg then becomes a color that represents its human, and from then on will take messages that other people leave them, and speak to their resident only through telepathy. Inside each room, a wind-chime hangs, that works with the same magic enchantment, and goes by the same name as the eggs. One must touch it, and request how long they wish to sleep, and a chime will play a tune that is most soothing to its bonder, and play, creating an enchanted sleep in which one will always wake up rested. When it's time to awaken, the chime will stop to play, and its resident will always wake up. If the chime senses danger however, it will stop immediately to make the sleeper alert and fully awake.
In the East wing, on the second level, an orphanage in which Children who were lost can be adopted from by loving parents. This orphanage takes up the whole floor, and are normally a few children in there at a time. On the bottom level, one half of the floor is taken up by an infirmary, where wounded inhabitants can be go to healed by one of the many gifted healers of the palace. Herbs and magic are both used in this room. The other half of the bottom level is a nursery, where children of the residents and orphanage play together, in a large playroom. The playroom is stocked with more toys then one can count, and devices of other worldly amusements. There are small couches in there, and pillows, and it is the perfect environment for a child to stay, oblivious that their parents may be fighting demons, or even making love with a bit of privacy in their quarters.
The west wing is one of mystery. Not many people go in there, and its up to your imagination for what you find in the three story west wing.
The top floors to every building served as private get aways, and observatories for ones pleasure at viewing the night skies. Whereas the palace also had two basements. The bottom basement, had a collection of old machines and toys in which were just for show. There was a large stone archway lined with runes of an old old language. The palace creator alone holds the keys and secrets to this archway, and very few get to see it in use. The upper basement has a series of dungeons and laboratories for those of her people with more brain and ideas then she, and has happily provided each of them with their own laboratory and equipment.
The main building opened up to a large ballroom made of white and black marble. An indoor wrap around balcony lined the walls up at the second story that one could get to by climbing the grand staircase that stood in the center of the large room. To the left were the doors to the kitchen, which also had doors down to the basement located in them. To the right, were the lounge and bar area, where people could sit and relax. In the lounge room, a single fireplace stood in the center of the room, that was lined with stones, its chimney a large stainless steal pipe that lead up to the ceiling through the roof. Supporting the chimney, large stone pikes came down from all sides, making it look like a strange tee-pee of sorts. Through it though, you could see the other side of the circular lounge/bar-room, enabling everyone to see and be by the fire at the same time. This was were most of the activity was. It was filled with comfortable sofas and tables, a bar with beverages of every sort lining against the circular wall. to the far back of the room, a door lay that lead to the outside gardens. A place where mazes of flowers of every sort, trees of every kind and paths to the training and dueling areas. There was a large lake in the back grounds of the palace, where a small waterfall sang down.
Small cottages dotted the grounds for the palace creators generals and family, those who needed the privacy of their own little house. These were the ones that her people could turn to if she ever was not there to handle a situation.
This is the palace, and she wants you to join her in her home....
