[The Palace of Athens, Pinnacle of Helios]

that reaches up to the sky. The chill touch of moonlight seeps
through, casting eerie shadows on the smooth walls. You also see a
silver walkway.

linen runner. Slender columns form a colonnade that lines the hall —
stately forms guarding your passage through the palace. You also see
a tall oval mirror.
Obvious exits: north, south.
Salmoneus, Sabin, Lilen, Bonk and Denada followed.
[The Palace of Athens, Third Floor]
To the east lies the Hall of Audience, its gilded doors always open to

by Aleister.
The Palace of Athens, Chamber of Demeter]
A painted relief of Demeter is carved from the stucco wall. The blue
robe she wears clings softly like silk to her form. The golden
ribbons encircling her brow match the sheaf of wheat she holds
together with a scepter in her right hand. You also see a hardwood
stair winding up to the third floor.
Also here: Aleister and Llorien.
Obvious exits: north, east, southeast, southwest, west, down.
Salmoneus, Sabin, Lilen, Bonk and Denada followed.

[The Palace of Athens, Hall of Entry]
The cool fingertips of the moon brush through a large arched window
carved from the thick marble of the wall. The sounds of the hushed
gardens outside — water trickling, leaves rustling, the faint giggle
of a lady being courted — echo through the otherwise silent chamber.

Salmoneus, Sabin, Lilen, Bonk and Denada followed.
[Palace Gardens, Bronze Gate]
The tall gate leading into the palace is shadowed by the mottled
fingers of moonlight that peek through the brush of the luxurious
gardens. Sinewy tendrils coil and curve around the bronze posts,
their tender green shoots appearing hard and black beneath the night
sky. The Alani - the swiftly footed hounds of Artemis - leap and
cavort along the pillars of the gate. You also see a bright silk tent
flap and a porcelain urn.
Obvious paths: south.
Salmoneus, Sabin, Lilen, Bonk and Denada followed.
