The Great Hall of Geroskipou Palace was breathtaking, and was not even the greatest of its many many rooms and halls. Made of marble and covered in gold and jewels, millions of astartes had been spent in order to dazzle the guests of the King. So grand and magnificent it was that a single tile in the floor was worth more than the average Cinyroite worker could make in three years.
High above, the previous king had commissioned the very best of Cinyras’ artists to create a grand painting of the old Cinyroite gods, with the royal family of then taking up the place of the major ones. The late King Enrikos I and his wife, now Queen Mother Ionna, were depicted as Dyeus, the great Sky Father, whilst Ionna was send as Hērē, the goddess of marriage whilst the then crown prince and princess, now the current King and Queen were seen as Poteidas, god of the sea and Damate, goddess of earth. Their two children, born after they ascended to the throne had been added to the painting as Apollon and Artamis, the twin god and goddess of the sun and moon.
