[Banquet]
The banquet seemed to grow larger the farther they walked.
Every corridor they passed opened into yet another lavish section of the estate, each one somehow more extravagant than the last. It almost felt as though the mansion had no end, as if every doorway existed solely to reveal another display of wealth.
There were performers draped in elaborate dresses, moving gracefully to the rhythm of a small orchestra while intoxicated nobles watched with little attempt to hide the hunger in their eyes.
Elsewhere, elegantly dressed couples glided across the clean floors beneath enormous crystal chandeliers, their steps accompanied by refined music.
Further ahead stood a magnificent fountain sculpted from white and gold.
Instead of water, deep red wine continuously flowed from its upper basin into pools below, where servants patiently filled expensive goblets before offering them to passing guests.
