Gatherings of citizens are held here around the glowing fire pit.  It is
here that those who wish to propose changes or new laws may find an audience
willing to listen to their ideas.  Though the guards ensure that no
gathering gets out of hand, many fear that the queen's agents skulk about
here collecting information.  Gatherings have been known to become quite
heated when a controversial idea is the topic of discussion.  Sounds of
wheels as well as hurried footsteps can be heard from the south.
