The Palace of the MageLord

The Palace of the MageLord is where the nominal ruler of Moonshade resides on Serpent Isle and appears in Ultima VII Part Two.

Description[edit]

This palace also is, where the banquets are held - a frequent occurence due to Filbercio's need to show off - the treasures of Moonshade are kept and where the court room for the show trials against so-called "enemies of Moonshade" (basically anyone that annoyed the current MageLord in some way) is located. Adjacent to the palace is a dock at the lake for a hover boat. All in all the palace is the sheer manifestation of decadence in a vain city and stone-built expression of the belief in magical superiority.

Lore[edit]

The messenger stood by my table. "If it pleases Milady, Filbercio, the Magelord awaits thee at his palace." Not knowing what else to do, I stood and followed the young man out. When we reached the palace , the guests had already begun to arrive.

Trivia[edit]

  • One of the dishes served at the banquet is "daemon roast". Considering that the inhabitants of the Serpent Isle think of the gargoyles as daemons - and that daemons normally disintegrate upon death - this item has horrific implications.
