Castle Goldleaf

Castle Goldleaf is the seat of King Charle III Tana, located in Holypertuis.

Description

It is a lightgrey stone gothic mass, an awe-inspiring citadel of dizzying size. The central circular stronghold rises up like an intricate monolith, symbolizing the Empire’s power. Numerous pointed battlements and spires surround its towers, with intricate elevated walkways and tall arched windows of stained glass. The central castle curtain wall extends in four directions into the surrounding quadrants that resemble their own separate strongholds, all attached to the main central castle.
On all four cardinal directions, large aqueduct extend from the castle, carrying the pure and holy water of the city, the side of which is decorated with intricate vegetal part, painted with gold, granting the castle its name.

Throne room

The Throne Room is accessed through a large set of double doors carved from a deep red wood, each bearing the crest of Tana's Empire, the mixed crown symbol. Inside the enormous chamber, the ceiling ramps up towards the back where extremely tall grey walls bear numerous gold banners that hang nearly 40 to 50 feet from the apex. The back center of the chamber climbs via stair to multiple small platforms containing high-backed chairs that face inward toward the pinnacle of the rising stairs, where a wide platform holds an incredibly tall throne.
Facing the entrance of the throne room is a large statue of Gaendur Tana. The sculpture stands 10 feet tall depicting the 2nd emperor of the empire. The monument is built using Memory Stone, a material that was poorly understood at the time of the statue's creation.
Touching the statue allows one to see the memories of all those who made this monument, to revive the eons past, however it is dangerous to do so, and the statue has been put on a stand to make it hard to touch, even by the nobles allowed in the castle.
