While it looks very decorative, in the manner of Sapphopolian aesthetics, it is in fact a formidable fortress, and the first line of defense against attacks from the sea. As such it also serves as a very visible reminder of the Archon's duty to protect her people. |
Inside, it has all the comforts of home, some preserved in memory of past Archons, others at the request of the current occupant. Portions of the Palace are open to the public (with proper, unobtrusive, security screening). When Bastelle is present she welcomes visitors to come by her residence to chat, eat, and otherwise mingle without regard for status or position. | Inside, it has all the comforts of home, some preserved in memory of past Archons, others at the request of the current occupant.
