The next brightening, the wagons arrived a little later than the day before. It was just before noon and the guards lowered the drawbridge as they had the day before. An'fel came to greet the men and then they got to work. The table came in two parts, each rougly eleven feet long with four legs. The legs were of beautiful crafting, thick pedistals on which the solid top would rest. The entire table, like the beds and pieces the brightening before was well made and beautiful to look upon.
The table came together nicely with the colors of the floors and walls in the manor house's dining room. It sat comfortable in the center of the room. Above it hung an old, recently polished and cleaned, wooden chandelier. It was a beautiful relic, though not necessarily precious in anyway. It fit well with the woodland surrounding the castle and was likely made of the very wood that was cut to build this fortress.
The chairs came next and were placed around the table. Each chair had upon it a finely stitched cushion. The cushions sat on the chairs with a slight lip around the edge of the wood to keep them from slipping off. They were a deep red in color, all matching accept for the ones on each end. Those had taller backs and dark blue cushions. In all, it was a very nice dining set.
After everything was set up, the maids polished the top of the table and dusted the cushions appropriately. The men packed up their wagons and left, thanking An'fel the his employer for their business and suggesting that if they need more for the main room they need only go to Kendrick's. An'fel thanked them and lead them to the gate where they left for Primus Gadeo.
