El Palacio Rosa es el palacio imperial del Imperio Rosa de Sel. Está situado en la Sede Imperial. Es la residencia del emperador reinante y alberga el Trono Rosa.[1]
Arquitectura
El palacio es una gigantesca instalación compuesta de varias alas.[2][3] Las alas centrales del palacio, incluyendo el ala imperial, están hechas de piedra tallada, y muchas habitaciones tienen vidrieras.[4][5] Para conectar las alas, hay muchos pasillos largos que a menudo están decorados con retratos y cerámicas.[3] La facción que controla el gobierno decide qué alas utilizar y mantener, cambiando en muchos casos por completo el estilo y la decoración para adecuarlas a la estética deseada. Debido a esta tradición y al tamaño del complejo, algunas partes del palacio se ignoran completamente en ciertos periodos de tiempo y se utilizan principalmente para el almacenaje.[2] A pesar del estado general de abandono de algunas secciones, se considera que el palacio es una estructura hermosa.[6][1]
Características
El palacio incluye una galería imperial que cuenta con una vasta colección de obras de arte y reliquias de todo el Imperio Rosa, incluyendo el Cetro Lunar.[7][2] Los árbitros disponen de un estudio compartido[7]. Algunos árbitros y otros miembros del personal también tienen oficinas o despachos personales.[8][9] El palacio también cuenta con un calabozo bien equipado,[10] al menos una zona de cocinas,[11] una caseta de guardia para las fuerzas de seguridad,[4], muros cerrados, establos y un amplio complejo para los sirvientes.[3] Supuestamente cuenta con al menos un comedor que sirve alcohol.[12] Los calabozos incluyen una celda especialmente diseñada para encerrar falsificadores, con cuarenta y cuatro tipos de roca diferentes en las paredes y un revestimiento de ralkalest para hacer que la fuga mediante falsificación sea algo imposible.[7]
Personal
The palace is the residence of the emperor and his family, along with the five arbiters of the ruling faction. The palace's many servants have a dedicated section of the palace, near the stables.[3] They wear buttoned uniforms with embroidered insignia on the left breast to represent their particular function in the palace.[3][9] The emperor also employs an Imperial Fool.[7]
The palace guards are led by Strikers due to their high esteem in the eyes of the arbiters, along with their natural athleticism.[7] Strikers are required to be literate to work in the palace.[13] The guards, who are both male and female,[13] have military-style ranks, and some Strikers oversee lower-ranked "common" guards.[3] Weapons used by the guards include swords and daggers.[3]
Historia
Life in the palace was strictly regimented.[6] The post arrived early every morning, and servants went about their tasks like clockwork.[1] The palace hosted many notable personages, such as Atsuko of JinDo[1] and an ambassador from Fjorden.[3]
During the reign of Emperor Ashravan, the Heritage Faction made extensive use of Rememberers to turn the Imperial Wing into an imitation of a much older building; Ashravan took particular interest in the beauty of the palace.[6] The faction recreated ornate Lamio stonework and impressive Lamio relics; even the emperor's headboard was Forged to resemble a Lamio style known only from historical texts. A study used by the arbiters was transformed into an imitation of a fifth century hunting lodge.[7]
The palace was the site of an attack attributed to the Glory Faction that killed Kurshina and incapacitated Ashravan.[7] Around the same time, Wan ShaiLu broke into the palace with the assistance of the Imperial Fool so she could test her skill by Forging a copy of the Moon Scepter in the Imperial Gallery.[12] She also broke into Frava's study and replaced the priceless painting Lily of the Spring Pond with a copy so she could destroy the original at the behest of its artist, Han ShuXen.[1] Shai was captured when the Fool betrayed her and stole the original Moon Scepter; she was scheduled to be executed until the arbiters cut a deal with her to reForge the emperor's broken soul.[7] Shai was given one hundred days to complete the task; she was isolated in a small room in an abandoned part of the palace that was constantly guarded and Bloodsealed.[14] Gaotona allowed Shai to Forge different parts of her quarters until they were the nicest in the palace.[1] Shai eventually completed her task, but she had been plotting her escape all along and was able to get out of the palace.[3]
