Just inside the palace there is a lengthy hallway leading from the castle front.  The space is adorned with giant tapestries on the wall depicting scenes of knights performing heroic deeds.  One the floor is long plush runner carpet in a deep red color and adorned with gold trim.

large spider
I am a huge spider. I live on a vast web in the rafters of a carpenter's workshop. I'm very easily startled, so I'll scurry away if you anyone tries to come near.
hey there human, Can you not walk over there you'll destroy my web and make me starve Stay in your corner, spider, and we'll have no problems. We don't need your poisons here ok, that's fair enough So, find any good food around here? Keeping the place clean for the queen? No really, asides the bugs that come around once in a while Dang, well, why do you stay here, then? You could probably find better food outside. Staying here is safer, I'll have less threats But you're a very large spider. Surely you can defend yourself in the wild? I'm not bothered about other spiders, I'm bothered about humans Yeah, most humans do hate spiders. They don't think about the benefits that you provide. I wish everybody thinks like you I try to be kind. I really want to impress the queen, but I kinda feel like she prefers strong, brutal types.
