open audience

Characters: The Ironwood Emperor and anyone who came to speak with her!
Date: March 30th.
Location: The Palace of Landed Sky
Situation: The expected holding of an audience for any that care to speak with the Ironwood Emperor.
Warnings/Rating: N/A; to be updated if necessary

The hall is still and white, strung with softly glowing lanterns that are strung up high beyond reach. Outside, the sun is at its zenith, and it filters down through the cloudy glass roof to create a brilliant, nearly blinding ambiance.

The floor is marble, inlaid with mother-of-pearl and ruby quartz. It catches the light, and casts strange patterns on the walls.

The room itself is almost eerily silent. No noise, no echoes. No one and nothing vaguely human, excepting the Emperor herself, who is practising (with no small amount of skill) with a sword at the far end of the chamber. It's a long walk to her, and she's disinclined to make the journey less tedious to those that come calling on her presence.

The 'audience' is an open one, and no one will be turned away. So come one, come all, to the Palace of Landed Sky.

[Actionspam or prose are both acceptable!

Characters will only be admitted into the hall one by one, so there won't be anyone present for anyone else's conversations, and there won't be any 'mingling' in the chamber itself.

By popular demand, we will continue to allow mingling for those waiting for an audience in an antechamber. There is a thread header below to allow for that!]

Jack bowed his head respectfully. "Thank you, Your Majesty," he said, finally relaxing a little. "I'll remember this."

He hesitated for a moment as though silently debating something else, then seemed to decide against it and grasped for something that seemed appropriate to end the conversation with. "May I be excused?"
