Floor 4, Azzur's Bed Chamber

This is the immediate door on the right, when coming in from the glass staircase. The room is not massively huge but comfortable. It has a large emperor bed in the center, circular shaped not boxy, laden with pink curtains hanging and cascading down from the ceiling over the bed. There are strange black disks set in the floor, walls, and ceiling. The room is magnificent because it's not enclosed and lit by windows, it actually opens out onto a circling terrace guarded by six live gargoyles. He can see the countryside from his bedroom, in colder months a screen is pulled across the terrace and covered with bear fur rugs. He does not have much decoration to his bedroom, save for a portrait of himself unmasked (it just looks like a dark hair young lad, it could not be Azzur at all), a few blue Turkish lamps in a corner, and a couple of vases on the floor. His bedding is pink and purple with one white tiger fur blanket, his bedding is Bohemian and Indian in design.

A door leads into the bathroom. So, once he stirs in the morning (or night) he is to go take a bath and be dressed.


Bathing room

The bathroom is set between the bed chamber and the lounge. The small room has a tub with dragon clawed feet, shelves full of oils, perfumes, and ointment. One shelf opposite the tub is where all the cloths, towels, and toiletries go. There is a white curtain around the tub area. After he has a hot bath, servants must carry hot water up and dump it into the tub, he will go into the lounge next.


The Lounge

This room has many rugs, a fireplace, a couch, a large window, many decorations, and a mini wooden ship that lights up on the mantel. This is where he comes to rest after his bath and this is the room he will be wrapped up in the cotton fabrics, then dressed in his regular clothing for the day. He does not don armor in the lounge.

The view from the window is not spectacular, in fact, it faces the wall of the guest bedroom. He didn't want a window that where people outside could see him. He can close his white drapes anytime though.

The room is cozy, it's warm, quiet, and comfortable. There is sometimes a wooden lute laid out on the couch, a musician will come in and play it some days so he can hear it wherever he happens to be dwelling on this floor. This is not Azzur's main room to stay in, he has his living room and kitchen area he prefers to be in. These rooms are not fully lit with much light, as his eyes are more accustomed to the dark, he does have other preferences.

Once he's dressed, he will go next to his private dining room and study.


***

He certainly does like colorful textiles. Who knew a badass like him would consider sleeping with the color pink? You have discovered a secret. It is no doubt his favorite color... along with blue and black. 

He bathes every day too no doubt, so like every royal on the planet, they are obsessed with perfumed oils and fresh hot water. A luxury you don't have, you bathe at the inn, and it certainly isn't hot enough water. His perfumes and oils smell floral and a bit spicy, they are just vials stuffed with herbs.

His lounge is rather cluttered with lots of his belongings, it's like a creature comfort room. His belongings consist of trinkets he collected, statues, vases, lots of throw blankets, pillows, a ship that lights up, peacock feathers, dried flowers, a witch compass, maps of unknown places and times, and tea cups.  

It kind of feels like Lord Azzur doesn't really like sleeping and resting in lavish luxury, his rooms on the 4th floor are rather dull compared to what's downstairs. You begin to wonder now, what does he honestly desire in life? His status no doubt is extremely important otherwise he wouldn't dedicate a whole dressing room to his attires.
