"Ah, so you've found the Pact Council..." - Hell Palace - War Council, 24x20 (map(s) + visuals)

**FEATURES**
• *Entrance (left):* Heavy, gold-alloyed gates flanked by massive devil statues — stone guardians, perhaps.
• *Banners:* At multiple heights throughout the room — the coiling serpent ornament, the Lord's seal.
• *Central Council Table:* Round table with a throne and seven generals' seats. At its center: a fiery holographic projection — a living war report/map.
• *Marble Columns:* Four dark columns rise from the council table, soaring four stories to the ceiling.
• *Devil Statues:* Positioned throughout the room — silent witnesses and warning alike.
• *Cells & Sacrifice Table (top):* Four cells for contract partners awaiting their turn. At the table beside them, soul contracts are tattooed directly into the skin.
• *Scribes' Corner (bottom):* Parchments, books, writing instruments — contracts drafted and archived with demonic meticulousness.
• *Exit with Essence Basins (right):* Passage to the throne room, flanked by two glowing essence basins.
• *Bookshelves & Dark Corners:* Massive marble bookshelves cast deep shadows — some corners seem deliberately kept in darkness.
• *Balconies (above dark corners):* Treasures, relics, and war spoils from past campaigns.
