The Chamber of the Council of Four 
  A huge round table of black marble dominates this circular room.
Four chairs, which would be named thrones in any other chamber, 
are set at the four cardinal directions around the table.  The 
symbol of the Imperial Codex is embossed in gold on the center of 
the table.  The walls of the room are bare save The Words circling
the room just below the domed ceiling. Archways lead out of the room in 
all four directions, and stairs lead down and up.

Drogun the storm giant is here.

The Imperial Throne Room 
  You stand in a room designed to intimidate the greatest leaders in 
the Realm.  Four pillars rise to a domed ceiling.  Each pillar 
representing a Sect of the Empire.  The floor is a polished black 
marble with the words of the Imperial Law inscribed in gold so 
that they are forever present in the eyes of visiting dignitaries.  
At the center of room stands the Imperial Throne, equidistant from 
all of the pillars, showing equal support for each Sect but belonging 
to none.  A stairway leads back down to the fortress.
