Castle Holding Chamber

Castle Side Room

A narrow, unadorned chamber off the main corridor of the castle's upper levels. The room is dimly lit by flickering torchlight filtering through a high, narrow window, its stone walls rough and unkept. The floor slopes slightly downward, giving the space a claustrophobic feel despite its small size. A single rickety wooden chair sits in one corner, its legs uneven against the uneven stone floor. The air smells of damp moss and old iron, the kind of scent that lingers in places meant to be forgotten. This side room’s true purpose—storage, interrogation, or simple abandonment—isn’t clear from its appearance, but its isolation makes it the perfect spot for Veros’s violent encounter.
