Foley!

It's great you have been doing the map! And it looks pretty good indeed.

I have a few questions for you to consider though - and I hopefully have time during the weekend to really look at them.

But just for starters.

What do you mean by the Guardroom? Is it meant to be room where the guards sleep or where they have their office - or where they guard?

With the two latter options it would be too far away and aside of anything to be guarded.


Couldn't the armoury be on the left of the doors as that would be the coldest part of the hall during cold periods and thus liberate space for a table or two near the kitchens where it would be warmer?


Also we need to attach fireplaces - and look at their places in accordance with the second story so that all the warmth that comes from the fireplaces would directly heat the rooms up above them and not go astray. And the kitchen oven (& the possible fireplace on top of that) should also be used to warm some upper-story chambers?

I have some ideas on those but if you have some as well feel free to add them and we can discuss this plan further as the weekend comes.
