Pankot Palace Outer Courtyard (Including Dark Archway Entrance)

The Pankot Palace Outer Courtyard is a vast glittering marble expanse, deserted and foreboding under enveloping silence. The trio steps through the Dark Archway (Pankot Palace Outer Courtyard Entrance), their voices echoing sharply off towering facades that amplify tension. Towering Rajput guards with curved swords materialize as silent sentinels, and Chattar Lal emerges from shadows to confront them. This space functions as both a physical threshold (via the dark archway) and a narrative gauntlet, where power dynamics shift under the watchful eyes of the palace's guardians.
