Psst! Hi friend! okay, so these are teh things that will be in or be your new home okay before i start, please, just try to imagine all the walls being made of branches woven around each other, and there being no glass in the windows. Windows are just large holes in the walls (this applies to doorways as well). Um, the normal bathrooms are kinda hard to describe, since most of the inhabitants of the castle are centaurs, but since you've two legs and not four, and since a good forest bathroom is impossible to find, you'll have to imagine a four-walled (branches, remember) room with a wooden toilet, a wooden sink, a wooden tub, and a wooden showers with a nice little mirror somewhere in there and decorations however you want to imagine it lol however, you're welcome to bathe in the stream with the rest of us centaurs (though, being the king of centaurs, Tros has his own stream, so you'd bathe in his stream to ensure your safety *sparkles*) ALSO I AMLOST FORGOT but in your mind, replace all the hard floors with soft squishy moss kk im done please continue reading
So, this is the castle. pretty cool, huh?
So, Zaida has a choice between two rooms that can be hers. this is one of them
And this is the other
This is a sunroom.
again, please ignore any and all dry wall, and replace them with branches and foliage lol alsoo um, the room is about 5 times bigger
throne room/Tros sleeping place
okay, heres the thing. I'm not gonna tell you what this originally was cause that'd be slightly creepy. First off, see all that blue in the middle, right after the steps? Moss. It's slightly higher, as seen by the steps. However, instead of hard wooden edges, its dirt with little flowers and vines sprouting out and spilling over. Also, you can mentally remove the bench from the picture cause how's a horse supposed to sit on it lol. Otherwise, the room looks the same. I apologize if im not making any sense xDD Also, that spot on the middle is where Tros sleeps at night.
This is the library
try to imagine it a little bit neater, but still with the trees in there (just no tipped over chairs and books thrown everywhere and dirt everywhere cause thERES MOSS AS FLOORS HAh even i forget)
Okay, with this room.... there's a lot......
okay first off, there's not that many windows, and the ceiling isn't glass, just branches and vines. Secondly, the room is about 5 times bigger. There is no dining table, just moss flooring and a small low wooden table. There is no desk in the corner, and no plants hanging from the ceiling (because there's already flowers and leaves and stuff everywhere) The couch is still there for the occasional two-legged beings.
Basically, imagine all the rooms more earthy and like they're actually a part of a tree, and not a house in a tree. there are also a hundred bajillion more rooms, but im not gonna list them at all. If you discover a room/want a room in here that I dont have up here, go for it. Do it. "Create" a new room even though its already there.
ଇଇ૮:I'm being very theatrical right now xDD -throws glitter and opens boxes that hundreds of doves fly out of- -throws a little more glitter while muttering quietly to self "...i missed a spot"- legit im having him act a lot like Thranduil from lotr fandom eyes xDD
The ride to the Northern Forest was long and quiet. Upon entering the forest, Tros slowed his full gallop down into a canter, since they were now in his forest. However, his bodyguards remained stationed around him, their intractely carved wooden bows in hand, ready to shoot.
After around fifteen minutes, Tros slowed his canter into a walk, the guards placing their bows upon their backs again. As they drew closer to their final destination, the vines grew thicker, and moss was found hanging from branches more often. Flowers were found more in abundance, as well as doves and other songbirds (everywhere). The group rounded a corner and entered the entrance-walkway into a magnificent castle that seemed to be made into a tree. Tros didn't stop until they actually entered the castle, just beyond the massive wooden doors. There, Tros knelt down again, allowing Zaida to get off. He didn't raise himself up again, however. Instead, Tros spoke with the little creature. "Zaida, welcome to the Hall of the Forest King -"Right here, some centaur coughed a cough that sounded alot like 'you giant nerd' (it's one of the guards) "This is now your home as well. You shall not be treated as a common slave, but as one of us. Please, do not feel any need to hide yourself away, or your form. Any creature that is not human is welcome here."As Tros spoke, many centaurs, both female and male, entered the great hall. However, none of them were anywhere near as tall as Tros was, most centaurs ranging in the height of around 8 feet tall.
As Tros finished speaking, he offered the little creature a warm smile, then stood up, his 11 foot tall self towering over the rest of the centaurs. He turned his head, searching for someone, and then pointed to one of the centaur guards, the one who coughed in the middle of the king's little speech. Tros smirked at him before saying, "Scorpius, take Zaida to the guest rooms. Zaida, you have a choice between two rooms that can be yours. Scorpius, you are to accompany Zaida to anywhere she wishes to go for the next three days."Tros smiled at Zaida again before dismissing the massive group of centaurs. Tros continued to his throne room to continue on some work. (bleh)

Zaida had rode mostly silent throughout the entire ride to his palace, aside from the occasional squeak when he would go over a hill and make her bounce up on his back. When the last bit got a little smoother, she had ended up passing out asleep on his back, lying forward. Her chest pillows cushioned most of the trotting he did and she did not wake up till they arrived and she heard her name. She sat up with a small yawn and looked around sleeping. When her eyes settled on the place before her she drew in a small gasp. It was...magnificent. Such a long time had passed since she stayed in a place so...natural. Not since...her old home. This place...felt so...right. She didn't know why, but for some reason it felt like she really did belong. Even as she slipped off the large centaur kings lap, she could not tear her eyes from the scenery around her. It wasn't until he spoke again to her that she directed her attention to him.
"My...home..." she echoed his words, looking down at the leg warmers that she wore, the hem just above her knees. She looked back up to meet his smile and watched as he stood and spoke to a guard. She nodded at his words and looked up at the guard as he was to take her to her new room. She couldnt wait to see the rest of the place and quietly clutched her small satchel in excitement.
{Lol its alright. I like theatrical. The more extravagant the better~}
Tros walked slowly to his throne room. At the time, Tros was trying to sort out an issue with Lesser Centaurs, the ones that only spoke in grunts. They wanted to drive off pixies that lived south of them, but that wasn't going to happen in a trillion years.
A while later, Tros decided that he had done enough work on that ridiculous issue, and decided to see which room Zaida had chosen. (take this as i meet you again xDD)

Zaida had followed the guard centaur to the rooms she would choose. She still kept silent for the most part, aside from small gasps of amazement when they would pass something she found quite amazing or extravagant. When she was shown the rooms she took her time in deciding, taking great care in exploring each room, getting every detail placed in her mind. After a thorough inspection of both, she made her decision and chose the second room. She sat her satchel on the bed there and looked around. It was so quaint...so homey....she felt...free. She sat down on the bed herself and looked down at her leg warmers. She remembered what Tros had said about being accepted and blushed a bit. It had been years since she had gone without wearing her leg warmers...she had always been embarrassed about her hooves, even though she only had her sheep legs from the knees down, she thought it made her look even more odd. She sat staring at her legs, torn between whether or not she wished to remove the warmers, not taking notice to anything else around her.
ฬђєгє? ђ๏ฬ?The Halls of the Forest king (hey, that's me!) and I'm pretty chill
ଇଇ૮:oh boy oh boy time to do some sleep
Tros' hooves were silent on the mossy floors as he approached the guest rooms. The guard he had assigned to Zaida stood outside of the second guest room, so he guessed that Zaida was in that room. Upon entering her room, he ducked so he wouldn't hit his head he noticed that said small creature was staring at her leg warmers rather intently. Slowly, Tros lowered himself until his legs were tucked underneath him, before gently placing a hand on her shoulder. Tros smiled at her.
"Zaida, it's alright to show who you are here. That is, unless you're a human. Then I'd suggest you hide for as long as you can. But I do not think you are a human. So please don't feel as though you have to hide yourself. We're all beautiful creatures in this forest."

Zaida kept looking at her legs until she heard someone enter, her little lamb ears perking up as she looked at Tros. At his words she glanced back down at her legs with a blush. "It's just...been so long since I've shown them....I'm not used to it..." she said, clicking her hooves together a bit.

ଇଇ૮:okay, again, sorry for lateness, i saw your post and was unable to respond to post for i was in aeroplanes and my wallet is a desert (or is it dessert??) ; A ;
emotion_bigheart
Tros smiled at Zaida. He decided he would not rush her in anything. He brought her to his castle so that he could have a friend (other than his half-a** guards that liked to make fun of him **cough cough Scorpius**)
"It's alright Zaida. I want you to take your time with things like that. I wish for you to be comfortable here."Tros stood again, and motioned for Zaida's guard, Scorpius, to follow him."In the meantime, how about I show you to the library? You strike me as someone who loves to read."

Zaida looked up when he spoke again, giving a small smile and a nod. "Thank you." She said as she looked down at her legs again in thought. When she heard him speak of a library, her gaze snapped back up, eyes seeming to sparkle. She jumped to her feet...er...hooves? She stood up rather quickly. "Oh yes! I very much love to read!" She said excitedly, trying to still keep a rather calm and collected demeanour.
{Its alright. Like I said, im pretty patient. ^^ people have stuff to do and thats understandable.~}
ฬђєгє? ђ๏ฬ?The Halls of the Forest king (hey, that's me!) and I'm pretty chill
ଇଇ૮:omg you are god of patiance and tollerating typos/bad spelling
emotion_bigheart
Tros grinned at Zaida's reaction, pleased with himself that he could make Zaida happy. He flicked his glorious wondrous hair and turning his gaze back to his friend.
"Alright then, follow me."Tros walked out of the room, tailed by Zaida, and in the rear, Zaida's guard, Scorpius. As they reached deeper into the castle, Tros decided to have a little fun and try to rile his friend up a little, just to see other sides of her as well. After all, friends should know most things about their friends. Tros stopped in the middle of an intersection and began to ponder, even though he knew exactly where the library was."Now, let me see... was the library this way..... or.... that way...."Tros practically felt Scorpius rolling his eyes at him. Ignoring him, he chose the left pathway, even though he knew that the library was to the right. After going on a bit, he stopped again, and seemed to pout. This seemed to go on for a bit, feeling slightly amused, before finally ending up in the library. "Aha! The library!"

Zaida followed him out as they headed to the library, her hooves lightly thumping on the ground as they went through the magnificent palace which she marveled at. It wasnt until she heard him speak that she snapped back. His words worried her a bit, if they got lost in this giant place it could be bad. She was about to suggest turning back at one point until they finally reached the library. She gasped lightly and trotted over to the nearest shelf. "Oh my this place is wonderful!" She said as she attempted to reach a book that was out of her reach, making her grunt a bit.
{Lol its alright I promise. It doesnt bother me to wait as long as I eventually get a reply...and grammar errors arent too bad every once in a while. X3}
ฬђєгє? ђ๏ฬ?The Halls of the Forest king (hey, that's me!) and I'm pretty chill
ଇଇ૮:oyou are such a good friend =w=
emotion_bigheart
Inside his mind, Tros felt as immense joy at having made his friend so happy. Noticing that Zaida was attempting to grab a book that was out of reach, he quietly walked behind her and gently picked her up. Once she got the book her hands were aiming for, he placed her back on the ground.
"For future references, when I am not here to help you, there are moving ladders for getting books in higher places, for the two legged creatures here. For all the centaurs here and other four legged creatures here, we must find other means of reaching."

Zaida made a small squeak when she was suddenly picked up and lifted closer to the book. She blushed as she grabbed it before being sat back down on the ground. "Thank you." She said shyly, giving a small nod at his words. "Ladders....yes..that makes sense." She said as she rubbed the back of her neck a bit embarrassed she didnt think of that. "This place is wonderful sir." She said as she held the book she had retrieved. "If...you dont mind...would I be allowed to bring back books to my room? As long as I return them when im done of course." She asked.

Tros nodded, then reached up to fix his crowny thing that sat on top of his head. He only wore the crowny thing because he'd have to listen to his maid rant on and on about how he's the king and that he should wear the damn thing even when he's passed out unconscious or "at a bar drinking up a barrels worth of cider".
"Yes, you may. If you'd like, I'll have Scorpius give you directions to the library. Or, if you'd like, he can escort you to the library. Whichever one is more preferable to you."
try to imagine it a little bit neater, but still with the trees in there (just no tipped over chairs and books thrown everywhere and dirt everywhere cause thERES MOSS AS FLOORS HAh even i forget)
