You walk into the castle


The castle vestibule is gorgeous. As you look around you, it seems way too good to be true. The wood pillars are smooth and polished; so much that you can see your reflection in them from where you stand. There are large mirrors in frames on each of the walls, and below each a small table with different sorts of objects on them, like glass vases with flowers, figurines, and other glass objects. Sometimes a table will even have an extra mirror.

The guard that was up on top of the wall comes through a door on the right wall to meet you. "This way, merchant," he says and holds the door open for you to walk through.

He begins to lead you down a long hall. There's a painting in between every door, but you don't really pay attention to them. "So...who is the keeper of this castle?"

The guard turns to you and says "Why, the King of ZoKamber!"

Your eyes widen in surprise, but then say casually "Oh, of course, how could I have not known?"

He opens a door at the end of the hall (shiny and reflective, of course) and says "Here's your room; I'll send a servant to attend to you soon."

And with that, he shoves you into the room, and slams the door.

"Well that was rude," you mutter, but proceed to look around the room.
