The Grand Ballroom

We invite you to enter here.

The music is soft and inviting. Take your partner's hand and take to the floor for and elegant night of dancing.

Falcon gets the chairs ready as jumps for the kids on the ponies and has some snacks and drinks brought in for them. Great idea I will show them how to swing from the chandeliers. This just might be fun for me too.

Wonder if I can get one of those ponies to jump a table

The Lord and Lady of the castle had left explicit instructions for the house staff.  All was to be readied for the upcoming gathering of international diplomats and trade ministers.  Marie took her duties very seriously.  Each room in the castle was inspected after the cleaning staff was finished.  She slipped on a new pair of white gloves and started her rounds.  

As Marie entered the grand ballroom she smiled.  The room was huge and the parquet floor gleamed in the sunlight that filtered through the tall windows.  All of the chandeliers had been cleaned and fresh candles placed in them.  The room was empty and silent now, but she hummed the last piece of music she had heard in here.  The elder woman looked around.  There was no one in sight.  A little smile played on her lips as she closed her eyes, she raised her arms, as if to grasp a gentleman's hand with one and rest the other on his shoulder.  To the music in her memory she began to dance.
