Capítulo 68: Rafal Spotted Oriana

After gaining a short audience with his father, the King of Griven, Arlan parted ways with his family, bringing his knights with him to return to the Crown Prince's residence, the Palace of Thistles.

The prince's carriage soon entered the iron gates of his residence. 

Compared to the luxurious magnificence of the main palace, the style of the Palace of Thistles was more grounded, its appearance more like a garden sanctuary with fountains and statues both inside the core building and the gardens. 

With high ceilings and windows as tall as the limestone walls, natural light could flood in during the day, giving life to the elegant interior designwork and decorations. The palace proper itself featured the finest furniture and furnishings, beautiful ceramic art including porcelain, as well as tapestry art and small-scale bronze sculptures.
