As they approached the palace doors, they were pulled open in front of them. Two servants, dressed in high collar, black uniforms stood staring straight ahead, primly clutching the door handle.

Cade stepped inside, tilting his head back.

"Whoa."

A vaulted ceiling yawned above them. Inscribed with murals and painting upon painting of Divines and other heroics. The fight between Anu and Padomay, the creation of Nirn, the removal of Lorkhan's heart. Cade's attention was quickly drawn back down to massive staircase winding to the left and right of them. The room was mirrored, symeterically cut down the middle, and they could see to either side rows of columns, art works, grand marble statues of heroes.

Stained glass windows shined with blue gem stones, and a sparkling chandalier hung from the ceiling amid the murals, glittering with magelight.

Cade slowly made his way towards the stairs, drawn in the vast quantities of empty, unused space. Housecarls in full plate stood at attention along the sides of the room, weapons pressed into their sides. They could have blended in among the stautes, had they not transitioned places every minute or so.

He leaned down to inspect the stairs on his first step up, noting the smooth, polished grain of the marble, shiny enough to see is reflection in. The stonework of the walls was similarly reflective, interupted by cuts every so often where the slabs had been layered one atop the other.

"I like this place." He told Graicus.
