Through the massive pillars to the north, you can see a gigantic throne,
resting atop a high platform.  The brazier burning here illuminates the
area, light bouncing off the pools of water and refracting all over the
room.  The sunlight coming in from the windows high on the opposite wall
help to add a brighter tone to the room.
