Palace of Kings (Stromgarde)

The Palace of Kings is an ancient and imposing edifice built by Anarion the first when he founded Drangleic. The city of Stromgarde was built around it, on the slopes of the hill on which it was built. Much of the interior is dominated by a grand hall lined with the statues of kings past, ending in an enormous throne called the 'Old-Carved Throne". The palace is enormous and not always perfectly kept warm by the enormous fires meant for the purpose.

The palace is less sumptuous than might be expected as the aristocracy of Stromgarde is always on guard against the debilitating effects of luxury and wealth upon noble souls.The Palace was built as an impregnable fortress for the protection of the noble bloodlines who founded it, but not so comforting as to be a permanent abode, instead the young men of the aristocracy are encouraged to join the Lion Knights and wage war on far off realms, for the protection and glory of the Kingdom.
