Indeed, the gate is cleared. You reach the front door - or the big door near the center, there's a few other doors scattered about here and there, in case you want to examine or try something different.

The one you're at it is big and carved with images of coins and stars. It's taller than Hanna by a few inches, dark-stained wood. No snow gathers around the door, simply gliding around it and forming drifts to either side.

<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Yuthirin

Tryll uses telekinesis to knock on the door.
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

Anastasia

No immediate reply, the storm blowing snow all about.

Just as you're about to knock again, the door opens a crack. "...yes?" A man's voice ask, older sounding.

"Open up in the name of the the Queen!" comes the response.

Anastasia

"What?" The man says, voice dry. "Unless the King has remarried, that is news to me."

"Queen Morwel, ya dummy! And I ain't askin'!"

Anastasia

"That's not the name of our former Queen," The man shuts the door at that, rather firmly.

Detect Psionics, looking at the door.

An autopass Psicraft check bypassed, no need to roll it.

Checking it, you see there's a minor but permanent enchantment to keep snow, rain, mud or other things from a few feet around the door.

Yuthirin

Cool. Disintegrating the door.

Anastasia

Great. Make the requisite 1 check real quick.

Minus one door. Inside is an older man, dressed in a bed robe and holding a candle in hand. "Wha-" he stammers out, momentarily staring at the two of you he can see.

"There! That's better!" Calleigh says, flying in. "Where's what'shisname?"

Ebony follows, keeping her hood up. Inside it is dim, shadowed, the storm's darkness and the snow's purplish duskfall light only providing minor illumination. It appears to be an entry room, a place for boots and coats, another door leading further in. A few benches are scattered about, the room itself quite large. The benches look nice - carvings of fish on them.

"This is trespassing! That is a crime!" The old man declares, pointing a shaking finger, "What manner of fairy trickery is this?!"
