☜☝ The Castle of Green ☟☞
From the outside, this castle appears fairly normal, stone walls covered in green moss, shingles, normal looking doors, the only difference is the numerous chimney stacks that spot the building. It's not just the chimneys that are strange, though, it's the smoke that pours out of them in different colors, everything from the brightest of yellows to the darkest of blues. A stone bridge leads up to the large steal gates and solid stone wall that surrounds the castle itself. The gates seem to have no lift and crank, no door or lock, no way to open them at all, this is to keep others out. Those in the Green family instinctively know that there is a certain stone on the wall that must be pushed inward and turned to the counter clockwise 360 degrees before the gate will lift straight up. The gate only stays open for five minutes, long enough for a carriage to get through and nothing else.
The inside of the castle is very different from it's outside. Light green marble floors run the castle, paired with taupe walls and large tapestries of silver and forest green. There is no grand stair case in this castle like the others in Wonderland, only small spiraling staircases in odd enough places. The Thrown Room in this castle can only be reached by going down a spiraling staircase placed in the middle of a side hallway on the first floor. This staircase leads down to a small hallway lit with large wall sconces, all holding bright green flames. This hall is made completely of dark green marble and has one solitary runner rug of silver that follows its length down the center. At the end of the hall is a pair of large oak doors, worn and old, but smooth as though brand new, each with large silver rings held to the door by monstrous looking beasts. Two guards open the doors for visitors using the rings. Light floods from the room once the doors are opened and the room beyond, the Throne room is revealed to be....a garden?
Yes, that's right, a garden, with, what appears to be, sunshine and trees and flowers everywhere. There's even butterflies that fill the room with constant colorful movement. Lush green grass covers the ground, and the air smells sweetly of the plant life's scents. In the center of the room sits a large flower pressed against the ground. With four petals spread out, one to the right, one to the left, one along the back, and the last sloping downwards. The flower has a cushion of hand spun yellow silk sitting in the center, the only obvious sign that this flower itself is the throne. The flower is a subtle blue with faded purple edges and looks as real as any other flower in the garden, until you touch it and realize it's made of stone.
