Silver Insanity

A simple thread to store consistent descriptions of locations. One location (or set of closely related locations) per post, please, so it's easy to link to the right place.
Your character's personal rooms, home shadows, etc., may go here, or in your character thread, or elsewhere, as you prefer.

The library in Castle Amber is a large and somewhat labyrinthine room featuring multiple levels, moveable ladders, and floor-to-ceiling bookshelves all arranged haphazardly, as if the architect had meant to construct a maze but never quite finished. In the daytime, a network of skylights and mirrors illuminates the room; at night a collection of fireplaces and hooded lanterns illuminates the room through the same network of mirrors. Those attuned to such things may note that quite a lot of sorcery has been expended on fireproofing the room; apparently someone is a bit paranoid about having flames and books in any sort of proximity.
