The outside of the manor is rather imposing with a large stone building and two immense guardian sculptures on the outside depicting mythical beasts. There are also small gardens to the left and right.  The main path itself is a cobbled one that only beckons visitors if they are worthy enough.

We are the guests of the queen on the way to the banquet. I hope we fair better than the last guests. I hope we keep our heads.
The banquet must be somewhere around here! Woof! I smell the food already! Do you know the way? Just follow the cobbled pathway!  I see, this is my first time to this manor. The statues are a bit different to say the least. They're to weed out the cowardly, unworthy folks. As long as I do not upset the queen as is well. Did you bring a gift? Guests should not enter without the proper respect to the hosts.  I most certainly did, I have heard the rumors. Woof! Good human. What rumors have you heard?  Simply that the queen might have a bit of a temper you could say.... Hmm, that would explain the occasional shouting I hear coming from inside.
