Lily guides you down the stone stairway of the Establishment. Small torches set in brackets on the wall light your way down. The flight of stairs seems to go on for some time before you reach the bottom and an open archway to your right.
You walk through the archway and look into a huge room. It must be two stories high and the length and width of a football field. Tall candelabras are placed at various intervals throughout the room, and more torches line the walls. There are other archways leading off of the room to unknown storage or holding areas.
A tall black man wearing a white linen shirt and pants approaches you holding a silk robe. He gently holds it out until you slip it on, then he reaches around you and ties a loose knot in the front, holding it closed. He gestures toward the interior of the room silently and you walk forward. It's a huge room, but after some distance you approach a raised dais. On this dais is a large and comfortable seat or chair.
It must be my throne, you think, and you would be right. You step up onto the dais, arrange your robe comfortably, and sit on the throne.
Lily smiles at you as she steps up onto the dais, then turns toward the room and kneels down next to you. She sits back on her heels, then turns toward you, expectation of your commands in her eyes.
The black man stands on the floor before the dais, his hands folded in front of him, his face turned up towards you in expectation of your orders.
You look deeper into the room and see others, men and women, either clad in the same white linen or wearing nothing at all, emerging from some of the nearer arches. They are all looking to you for direction.
This is power. This is control. This is the ability to have your every desire fulfilled. You reach out to gently stroke Lily's hair as you smile, contemplating what you'd like to see...
