It was to this door that X led the duke to. Over the door a shabby sign read, “Ministry of Resources, Prophecies, and Other Junk like that. Donations Accepted.” It had been edited by an unknown source over the years, so it had the feeling of graffiti. Beyond the door was a dark hallway. During the day it caught the light of the sun at all times, so it was bright. But no one ever managed to light the torch in the hall, so at night it was pitch black. The hallway extended on for about 20 meters, coming to an end in a large square marble atrium. It was about 40 meters in each direction from the door, 80 meters from end to end. If you walked 20 meters toward the opposite end from the door there was a large counter stretching the whole length of the room. No one knew what happened behind this counter expect those who worked there, and they only told it on a need to know basis.* On the door-side wall there was tables ever meter or two, all with people sitting at them. The tables were covered in scrolls. They were the prophesiers, those who made all the prophecies, or prophesied where the rest of the ministry could find some. The atrium was very well lit, with torches every few feet.
*Need to know- You absolutely must know for some reason. They can then tell you, but then they have to kill you. Need to know basis is not highly used.
