The Royal Castle



The residence of the King and Queen of Atlantis, Queen Andoria and King Hestios. The palace is open to all Pearlaice to visit and look at and the King and Queen will receive all who wish to visit.

As you swim into the main hall you see large halls made out of pure white marble, shining and glittering as the light hits it. Gazing around, you feel sort of lost as take in the magnificence and the size of just this hall. Looking around further, you see a large, main hallway leading further into the palace. There are also two giant stairs to your left and to your right, winding up to... who knows?.

The hall seems to be the main focus point as lots of Pearlaice cross over, going from one place to the other, but doesn't seem to be full at all.



The main hallway
A long hallway, as purewhite as the rest of the castle, shining and sparkling of the lights hidden in the walls and floors. As you follow it, you reach another great hall. Seated at the far end are the King and Queen. They beckon kindly towards you and motion you to come closer, but you are approached by one of the guards first. He looks at you, top to bottom to see if you are a danger to the royal pair. He nods and motions for you to move over to the King and Queen.



The great hall
The hall doesn't only have the leaders in it. There are also several other Pearlaice working, bustling with activity, swimming from one place to the other. None of them seem to mind, though, and they smile at you as you pass. Out of this hall are several other corridors, probably leading to various other places in the castle.



The stairs
As you swim up the giant stairs you faintly wonder what they are good for, but you shrug it off. Reaching the top of it, you end up on a giant landing. On the other side, you see the other stairs connecting as well. Apparently, the two lead to the same way.
Up ahead is another broad... hall? It's not a hallway, too big for that. In this hallway are many doors, all leading to some secret destination. Weren't the rooms of the royal children somewhere around here as well?

As you move your way into the hall, you look at more corridors, winding around corners, and more doors. You frown slightly as you might get lost, but shrug it off, as there are plenty of windows for you to swim out into the ocean again. Following corridor after corridor, not really knowing where you're heading, you're suddenly stopped by two guards.

"HALT!" The first guard points a pointy spear in your direction, he glances at you from under his helmet. "These are the royal chambers. You are not allowed in until you have an appointment. Do you?" He stands in front of you, a loose pose, but ready to attack if necessairy. Several other guards smile up at you, waiting for your answer.
