In the secrecy of his room, Eradan begins devising a plan for when he announces his open rebellion against the Empress. His study is quiet, and the even smallest noise echoes through his private quarters. It has been long since anyone but himself entered that part of the Palace, leaving him free to write down his plans as he pleases, although he would hide them later simply out of paranoia.

Ithilrond, the Moon-Hall of Cair Andros and home to the Lord of Ithilien after the line of Stewards, has been transformed into a maximum security citadel in the wake of the plague. Only on rare occasions, as determined by Eradan, are servants and guards allowed to leave the palace grounds, and the screening process to those returning is extensive and tedious to the point that most prefer to send letters to their loved ones. Short term visitors are given more lenience in entry screening, but that is not to say they would have an easier time getting in. Only select advisors and servants are allowed to enter the grand hall freely, and any visitors must have the permission of Eradan upon arrival to enter the halls. Visitors are placed under a time limit to ensure minimum exposure to the plague, unless Eradan states otherwise. The background of any food or supplies entering the palace grounds are screened extensively for potential exposure to the sickness. As is to be expected, Eradan himself is exempt from all of these rules, since they're all made to prevent him from catching the plague.
