The dining room holds a gleaming, gilded wooden table that can seat 100! There are gilded mirrors on the walls, and hundreds of candles, which are lit every night. There is a large handmade rug on the floor and tapestries lining the walls depicting past royalty.

king
I am the king. I rule this kingdom alongside my wife, the queen. It is my divine right to be the king because my father was the king before me.
Greetings my good servant! How goes another day in this, the kingdom of my fathers? Very well kind sire Excellent! And what shall I and my good knights be enjoying for dinner this fine evening? I have freshly baked beans with the finest wine Ah! Wonderful! What of meats and sweets? What wild game have my hunters returned with? They came with some deers. My good servant... you seem... how do I put this? A bit hesitant tonight. You take long to answer and your responses are brief and without detail or passion. I do not need to remind you have been loyal to me for many years that I am king of these lands as my fathers before me. This means many privileges but also many responsibilities, I simply cannot sit here forever and wait 20 minutes for four responses. I am a busy man! Now, please, good servant! Tell me of tonight's feast! I am so sorry your highness. I am a lil bit down today. I will ensure the cakes and sweets are brought in immediately. Do well to taste this fine wine. Ah! I knew something troubled you, old friend! You have always been good company, and to see you so dispassionate now saddens my heart. Come! Join me in this wine and tell me of your troubles that your King might help seek a remedy for you! I feel very honored my King. My little girl is in love with your son and I know this is forbidden. I hope he wont be beheaded. I see. This is a grave matter indeed. My lineage must be strong, you know. It simply will not do to have my son sire a child with one of ignoble birth. Then again, my son's happiness is perhaps as important. Does my son reciprocate this love? Yes he does your highness
