The seat of power for the metropolis in ancient times. The Blazing Throne in the center, tallest building was where the warchief sat and ruled the lands. The throne itself was formed with rhyolite lava due to being highly viscous, causing it to flow slow enough to shape and manipulate. Skulls of their defeated enemies and traitors are embedded in the igneous throne. Among the skulls, the throne is adorned with natural obsidian that took years to form.
The Blazing Throne presides over a round and spacious room. There are windows encircling the entire room, but only at the level the Blazing Throne rests. Only the warchief could look out upon the entire fortress while ruling his people. In its hayday, the massive tower burned a brilliant, sacred flame, fueled by the volcano, and serving as a protective ward against all enemies. Today, all that is left is a weak and crumbling tower that has been exposed to the elements.
The Blazing Throne, now called the Seat of Death is a dark reminder of the nature of the Pae'il of the past. It sits alone atop the high dais. A long stairway once leading to the dais. The granite stairs have not survived the years as well as some other parts of the Dark Fortress. The Seat of Death remains unreachable without climbing equipment, or wings.
There is a stench of death surrounding the throne. The air is heavy and the ghosts of the past can easily be felt watching, waiting. There are signs the throne has been used recently as there are discarded bones of small animals and even blood marks on the dais. Blood stains do not last hundreds of years.
