... Then again, my evening is starting to fill up ... better post now while I have a few spare minutes!
Vanima Edhel and
Varda:
The key that you found also opens the north-west maple door. You safely enter to find yourselves in a Private Sitting Room that looks much like the one below, main difference being there's no fire blazing in the fireplace, nor lit candles in the chandelier.
Along with what you see in the picture, there is a small mahogany table with legs carven as of winding vine tendrils encircling slender tree stems. An unadorned white porcelain vase sits atop the table. It still contains, alive and freshly blooming, the last flowers Adela had ever seen. Lilacs of kingly purple, sprightly magenta, purest white. Their aroma shines out ten times stronger than what mere nature had given them.
