Walled Garden

**Walled Garden**

The walls are covered with climbing roses and ivy, while also containing many other rare plants, including a weeping willow. The enclosed walls give the impression of being separated from court, almost in another world. Not surprisingly, the Queen used to favour this garden by day, often drawing comfort from its surroundings and the familiar scent of orange blossoms from the citrus trees scattered throughout.

By night, though, it is a different story. Due to its secretive nature, it is said to be frequented by less savoury characters.
East India Company

The East India Company was one of the major tenants of the Royal Exchange, storing a vast amount of their inventory in the bowels of the great building.

The front office was a subdued affair, handsomely appointed, backed by a large map of the known world with small flags marking the East India Trading Companies holdings. A young man, perhaps in his late 20's with pale blond hair and equally pale complexion, sat behind a large desk that held several stacks of papers, each weighed down to keep them from blowing about from the opening door.

## History in Brief

Founded in 1600, it was more properly known as the Honorable East India Company, but also called the East India Trading Company, or colloquially as "John Company." The company's main trade goods were cotton, silk, indigo dye, saltpetre, tea, and opium, and focused mainly on India.

By a series of five acts around 1670, King Charles II provisioned it with the rights to autonomous territorial acquisitions, to mint money, to command fortresses and troops and form alliances, to make war and peace, and to exercise both civil and criminal jurisdiction over the acquired areas.
Central Drawing Room

Central Drawing Room

The room is decorated in a rich burgundy, the chairs and settees scattered around in small groupings matching the decor. Light is supplied by a large chandelier, which is reflected off several mirrors strategically placed about the room. Servants circulate about the room, ready to fetch any drink that one may require, from tea to wine to brandy.

Queen's Presence Room

**Queen's Presence Room**

The Queen’s Presence Room mirrored that of the King’s, in that it was open to all gentry and wealthy merchants. It was a spacious room, able to seat 40, but a welcoming one, decorated in warm red that was nicely accented by the ivory upholstery of the seats and decorative gilding. The central focus of the room was an elevated couch, reserved for the Queen, with a scattering of chairs near it as well as other groupings of seats settled around the room for attending courtiers.

The rounded tables and cupboards around the desk held bouquets of flowers as well as busts of various historical figues – Aristotle, Copernicus, Julius Ceasar, Sappho, Dido and others. Leading further from the room were two doors on the far side of the room. The door to the left would take one to the Queen’s Drawing room and the one on the right to the Queen’s private parlour that guarded the entrance to the Queen’s bedroom and closet.
Queen's Suite

**The Queen's Suite**

The Queen’s Suite occupies an entire wing of the palace, including drawing rooms, parlous, and office. Having been prepared for the Queen Karoline, the colour scheme of the suite relieves heavily on warm reds and rich gold and wooden tones, the furniture solid and the decorations and gilding elegant and sensible, lacking unnecessary frills.

This is your entry point for:

* Queen's Presence Room
* Queen's Drawing Room
* Queen's Bedroom

People with lodgings here:

* Mistress Wellsley (Maid of Honor to the Queen)
* Lady Susan Herbert (Maid of Honor the Queen)
* Lady Lucille Seymour, Duchess of Somerset (Lady in Waiting)
Whitehall Gates

**Whitehall Gates** The Whitehall Gate gave the visitor access to the Whitehall Palace. Entering the palace by the gate gave access to the Whalebone Court, through which was the passage to the Great Hall (Whitehall), the Royal Chapel and the Water Gate.

The gatehouse itself was a lofty baroque building with a conical roof. It was entered by a door flanked by two passages, each in the form of a quadrant, together making a semi-circle. The rooms over the gate were used as lodgings. Among others the Lord Almoner had his residence here. The Porter's Lodge was on the ground floor under the Gate. It was occasionally used as a prison.
Office of the Major of the 2nd troop of the Life Guard

**Office of the Major of the 2nd troop of the Life Guard**

This was but a side room to the Office of the Commander of the Life Guard, which could be found in the Knightsbridge Barracks, part of Whitehall, and often people were send there that were not supposed to gain access to the Commander, too busy at his task. It was a small meager office, with only a desk and two chairs and a nondescript painting on the wall.
West Indies

## English West Indies

The first English settlement on any island in the west Atlantic was on Bermuda, in 1612. Three decades later, religious friction within the Bermuda community caused a group of dissenters to seek a place of their own. In 1648, they began settling in the Bahamas, a chain of previously uninhabited islands forming the fringe of the northern Caribbean.

The English were the first to acquire valuable footholds in the eastern fringe of the Caribbean region. They established settlements in St Kitts (1623), Barbados (1627), Antigua, Nevis and Montserrat (1636). Then, Spain lost Jamaica to the English fleet, which invaded and captured the island, in 1655.

## Sugar, Slaves and Shipping

The English settling on the islands of the eastern Caribbean relied almost solely on agriculture. At first they grew tobacco in small holdings, but soon it became clear that the profits were to be had in sugar. This was most profitably grown on large estates, worked by slave labour.

By this time, the original inhabitants of the West Indies had been virtually wiped out by a combination of European diseases and physical exploitation. Thus plantation owners had to rely on slaves imported from Africa. The slave trade was, at this point in time, dominated by the English, with Jamaica becoming the major slave market of the region.

The economic importance of the islands bringing Spanish, French, and English fleets often into close proximity resulted in the Caribbean being one of Europe's regular and generally ongoing theatres of war.
Music Room

**Music Room**

The room is decorated in gentle shades of lavender and plum, intended for use for small concerts in the upcoming winter months. Set central to the room is a Piano forte, with a selection of some other instruments, a harp and a lute, a great horn, a cello and two violins, three flutes and a triangle being the most notable ones. Against one of the walls are set three stands that can be moved around the room as needed and a doorless cupboard filled with numerous shelves offering a selection of music, mostly from England, Italy and Germany.

Musicians one and all are welcomed to the room, whereupon impromptu performances and practise might idle away the hours of early afternoon.

King's Back Stairs

**King's Back Stairs**

The marble stairs at the back of the Kings Apartment, accessible by water and through a small passage from the Whalebone Court, were frequently visited, but mostly at night, when one or more ladies were rushed inside to attend on the King. The door was invariably guarded by the Kings personal manservant and a set of Life Guards. Green vines curled around a lantern that lightened the way of the rushed footsteps of the ladies.

A small corridor gave direct access to the Kings Bedroom.
Sundial

**Sundial**

Charles II was a well-known supporter of the sciences. Such was his fascination with astronomy and natural science that he commissioned Francis Hall (alias Line) to build this complicated device complete with crystals and turning elements. Often called the Pyramidical Sundial, it was made of stone, iron, brass, wood and glass with about 270 individual component dials, including a number of spherical glass dials and painted plane glass dials.

The crystals contained pictures of the royal family including Catherine of Braganza, the Duke of York, the Duchess of Portsmouth, Nell Gwyn, and all 14 children that the King had lovingly recognized even though they were bastards. The only conspicuously absent face was the Lady Castlemain, Duchess of Cleveland. The device was a sundial that only operated on sunny days, but when it did the whole mechanism started moving and was surprisingly accurate in not only telling the time but the exact date.

At all times one of the King’s Life Guard stood watch near the priceless object, which was located in a courtyard of the Privy Garden that connected the palace to St. James's Park. The King passed it everyday with a smile on his face.

During the September Season, the sundial was the source a particular scandal in which the Earl of Rochester urinated on the prized artifact. This ultimately led to his banishment from Court during the Christmas Season.
Office of the Colonel of the Life Guard

**Office of the Colonel of the Life Guard**

The office of Colonel Ablemarle of the Life Guard could be found in the Knightsbridge Barracks, part of Whitehall. The office was stern yet well appointed, with a clerk directing all traffic either to one of the staff officers or to the Colonel himself. Several large oil paintings depicting large battles and even a sea battle decorated the walls. A small cabinet with liquor was provided for certain occasions.

Volary Garden

**Volary Garden**

Between the Privy Stairs and the location of the old Privy Gallery lay the Volary Garden, the aviary of King Charles II. On the other side it opened to the Kings Apartment, most particularly to the Kings Closet, also known as his Laboratory.

Four large statues representing ancient Greek goddesses graced the corners of the garden, which was filled with all matter of cages, filled with fowl. Pheasants, singing birds, peacocks, the most interesting amount of exotic birds, including parrots. Previously it was the site of the Kings Little Garden, which was the retreat of Charles I and forbidden to other nobles. Now however all were invited to share in the joy of the exotic, most especially the Maids of Honour, many of whom had their rooms open up to this private garden.

Fountains of the Courtyard

**Fountains of the Courtyard** A vain attempt to imitate the French style that had so impressed the young lords and royals in exile before the Restoration, the courtyard sported a large collection of fountains in a big pool of water. They were connected to each other with an ingenious system, a mechanism causing them to spring forth in a rhythm, one after the other, or indeed in any order that the Master of the Garden wished for.

This was the area previously known as the Pebble Court, just behind the Banqueting House, and separated from the Whalebone Court by a brick gallery that had been built in 1668, leading from the Banqueting House to the King's Apartment. The gallery was wrought prettily, with many windows and stairs on the two ends.

Office of the Secretary of State for Scotland

**Office of the Secretary of State for Scotland**

Inside the antechamber of the office sat a heavyset clerk, dressed finely as one of the gentry might. The clerk, one Aaron McAndrews by name, was a member of the gentry himself, holding the position of secretary to the Secretary. As such, he was more officious than most. His master was a tyrant and it bred small tyrannies.

There was also a younger clerk at a smallish desk nearby.

The Duke of Lauderdale saw whom he chose, and only whom he chose. Without an appointment, there was no hope of gaining entry to the duke himself. Those who gained admittance would find the duke seated behind a small elegant writing desk, in a small, but well-decorated office.

King's Drawing Room

**King's Drawing Room**

The Kings Drawing Room, just beyond the Presence Chamber, was also sometimes referred to as audience room or even throne room. The only chair in the room was put on a levee with a large burgundy canopy around it. Chairs could be provided for the princes of the realm, but save for the elderly and the pregnant all were supposed to stand in the Kings Presence.

This is where private audiences were held, hidden from public view. The reception of Ambassadors and other official happenings were more likely to take place in the Banqueting House.
Great Hall

**Great Hall**

Accessed from the Whalebone Court, the Great Hall was about 40 feet wide and 70 feet long, in chief, excluding the servants' access to the buttery and kitchen. The east wall contained an oriel window and vaulted ceiling, which highlighted the dais. Opposite this was a vast arched fireplace. Six bays flanked the huge chamber, each with triple-light windows, and windows of stained glass displaying heraldry above. External buttresses supported the lofty ceiling of bare timbers, which was covered in, in 1675, to aid with acoustics. The floor was paved with stone.

In 1665, the Great Hall was fitted with a gallery at the south end and tiring-rooms close at hand, thus converting it for regular use as a playhouse.

Phango

**Phango** is an African leopard and the main antagonist in Skunk Meets Khumba. Phango was born with one blind eye and was abandoned by his clan as the runt of the litter. He was thrown in the magical water pond in the clan's lair. This only made him stronger giving him an extra, almost mystical strong sense of smell. He rose back up and killed his clan in revenge. Being superstisious Phango also believed that by myth a half-striped zebra would make him the most powerful hunter who ever lived.
Hudson's Bay Company

Prince Rupert acquired a Royal Charter from his cousin for the vast lands surrounding the Hudson's Bay, in what would later become Canada. The charter, granted in May of 1670, gave the land to "the Governor and Company of Adventurers of England trading into Hudson's Bay." Building forts and outposts along the shores of Hudson and James Bays, agents and explorers of the company traded with the native peoples, buying furs in exchange for metal work items (such as knives and cooking pots) and blankets. Rupert's Land was (for some time) the largest singly owned expanse of land in the New World comprising 1.5 million square miles (3.9 million km²), and, from Fort Nelson and York Factory, it controlled the fur trade throughout most of the lands under English control.
Scarlet Drawing Room

Scarlet Drawing Room

The Scarlet Drawing Room was in an out of the way location in Whitehall, quite near the Royal Quarters. It had also been dubbed the Restoration Drawing Room for it was here that Charles I met with Edward Hyde and his Privy Council members when he returned to London. Its use by the King has been largely forgotten, as Charles preferred other drawing rooms closer to his bedchamber. Although open to the public, it was hard to find and, therefore, favoured by those who enjoyed the King's favour and knew of its whereabouts high up in a tower of the palace.

The walls of the drawing room are draped in red silk. A portrait of the King, painted in the month of his restoration, hangs prominently on the wall. Windows present a glorious view of St. James' Park to the west. A large dining table rests in the centre of this modestly sized room.

Cumberland's Apartment

**Apartments of the Duke of Cumberland**

Prince Rupert resided, while in London, in a collection of well appointed rooms that carried a theme of Rhenish design, which created a rather interesting contrast to the bold Gothic architecture, for this was one of the older parts of the palace. The Duke held only modest accommodations at Whitehall, his main residence being at Windsor Castle. His common law wife Peg Hughes also resided here during the season.

Upon entrance the visitor would note the rose wood and the many roses about the room. The rest of the interior basked in masculinity, military shields, banners and rifles, collections of weapons simply everywhere. The visitor would await the Duke's pleasure in the receiving room, where the deeper part of the apartment revealed a study, a drawing room for ladies and two bedrooms as well as rooms for servants.

Entry point to:

* Duke of Cumberland's Private Sitting Room

The room was large, open and surprisingly bright, lit by floor-to-ceiling windows along the far wall, the draperies of which had been pulled as far back as they might. The walls were panelled in vibrantly embroidered Chinese silks, trimmed with wide, rich, dark walnut, as though each panel were a work of art. Art from various far-away lands dotted the room, each a precious piece with personal value to the apartments’ occupant. Might there be the hand of a woman in the décor? Perhaps, but it somehow retained the masculinity and personality of the Duke.

Exit to:

* Privy Gallery
Royal Chapel

**The Royal Chapel**

Close by to the Banqueting House exists the Royal Chapel.

Seven broad stone steps lead up to the old building; grand arched double doors are wide open. Within, great vaulted wooden ceilings capture a great volume of air above the congregation - high above heavenly depictions look lovingly upon the mahogany pews. Candles flicker in sconces, the building itself is not overly well lit - behind the altar stained glass windows filter the light in a brilliance of colours.

A priest moves quietly about lighting tapers, available to tend to the needs of the flock.
Privy Garden

**The Privy Garden**

The Privy Garden at Whitehall is laid out in ordered blocks with statues in the center of each square, the classical creatures easily draw the eyes of lovers of art. The different statues depict the nine Muses (Calliope, Clio, Erato, Euterpe, Melpomene, Polyhymnia, Terpsichore, Thalia, and Urania) and the three Graces (Aglaia, Euphrosyne, and Thalia), each holding or surrounded by that which is most associated with her, such as a lyre or scroll. As one wanders, it is often noted that the red roses remain on one side of the garden while the white ones remain on the opposite side, thus creating a pleasant contrast throughout. About the garden are scattered several benches, but none are secluded.
King's Bedroom

**King's Bedroom**

The first thing one noticed entering the large decorative room was not the grand bed with its purple curtains, but the amount of golden clocks, ticking away. Then the ceiling drew the eye, showing a classical scene of Charles II regnant as Justice over England with lots of cherubs as decoration to the scene. A painting of his father, King Charles I, as well as portraits of of his dead siblings and mother gave the room a slightly austere look. Less so did the collection of purple cushions on the ground, which were clearly for use of the various spaniels that wagged their tails at any newcomers, crouching near the fire place.
Sugar

Sugar was not entirely unknown in Europe, but vastly expensive so that honey was more often used to sweeten before the 17th century. Contact with the West Indies introduced cane sugar, and larger volume on the market made it more available.

Sugar was first sold with drugs and herbs at apothecary shops. Like spices in the early modern era, sugar was a rare and much prized substance used by the rich for true conspicuous consumption. Sugar had multiple roles, serving as a medicine, a sweetener for beverages, and an ingredient for pastry and confections.

Table decorations made of sugar paste had been featured in banquets since the Middle Ages. Powdered sugar was combined with tragacanth gum to make a pliable modeling medium that could be shaped or pressed into wood or plaster molds.

King's Apartments

The King's Apartment or Kings Lodgings was an entire wing of rooms, kitchens and withdrawing rooms that suited many people, and to which all of nobility had access. It was also, ironically, the Kings most private place. To guard what little was left of that Charles Rex had ordered that none may enter past the Presence room without his personal permission, save for those he considered family. Even the Life Guard on duty is only allowed into the anteroom just inside from the Presence chamber, leaving the King some modicum of privacy and peace in most of his apartments. The more inner rooms are attended by ushers, grooms, and gentlemen of the household, equally for the King's security, company, and service.

Well appointed, the ceilings covered in symbolic paintings by various Baroque painters (though not so well endowed as Windsor Castle had been) signalled that Charles was lord and master of his realm, Justice incarnate, subjecting Rebellion. In fact, most of his rooms were still in the style of his father, featuring Charles I and James I.

Whalebone Court

**Whalebone Court** Accessed by Whitehall Gates on the one side and the Water Gate on the other side the Whalebone Court was the main access point to the palace. It was thus also known as the Great Court. It gave way to the Great Hall (Whitehall).

The most telling feature were the enormous large Whale bones that stood as decoration along the side of the courtyard, speaking of that dangerous profession of English Whalers.
Ronald McDonald

**Ronald McDonald** is a magical clown from McDonald Land and the primary mascot of the famous McDonalds fast food chains. Ronald has magical powers that define the laws of nature, mainly he uses them to help out his friends whenever they're on adventures. He also has a talking dog named Sundae. Ronald and his friends from McDonald Land will appear and join Skunk and his Team in Skunk's Adventures of Who Framed Roger Rabbit?.
Supergirl

**Supergirl** has long blonde hair and wears a light blue headband. She has pale white skin and light blue eyes and wears a blue t-shirt with a House of El crest on it and a short red cape, and a red cheerleader designed skirt. She also wears a red bracelet on her right wrist and a blue and a yellow one on her left (one of them was a gift from Barbara Gordon), a crystal pendant from her now deceased mother, as well as white and red high tops.

### Personality

Supergirl is very kind and caring and extremely powerful but she's also very clumsy.
Tea

Tea itself has been in existence for centuries, but it wasn't introduced in England until the 1600's. In London, coffee houses were an integral part of life for men (no self-respecting lady would be found in such a place!), but tea was considered a medicinal beverage and was sold mainly in apothecary shops. Some believed that tea would cure almost any ailment known. Herbals teas, usually referred to as a "tisane," were often sent for if someone became ill or didn't feel well.

The queen consort to King Charles II, Catherine of Braganza is credited with bringing tea drinking to England. When she first arrived in Portsmouth from Portugal, in 1662, after being married, she brought her own tea chest with her and asked for a cup of tea. She introduced and made tea drinking fashionable to the British court by serving them Afternoon Tea. Her influence made tea more popular amongst the wealthier classes of society, as whatever the royals did, everyone else naturally wishes to copy. Soon tea mania spread swept across England, and it has become the beverage of choice in polite English high society.

Many middle class families scrimp and save in order to buy tea, as it is considered quite a status symbol. Because of its growing popularity and high cost, it is often difficult to get pure tea. In fact, it is actually smuggled into England on occasion, and is even sold used or mixed with other things.

High Tea or "meat tea" is another way of referring to dinner. Afternoon tea consists of tea, bread, butter and cakes, and is generally held at four or five o'clock. It is called "low tea" because it is usually taken in a sitting room or withdrawing room where low tables (like a coffee table) are placed near sofas or chairs generally in a large withdrawing room. It is often drunk in the French style, with a little milk.

Office of the Privy Purse

**Office of the Privy Purse**

The proximity of the office to the King’s rooms is notable, although such a coveted location comes with two drawbacks for the office isn’t very spacious and lacks windows. To make the office appear larger than it really is the walls are a pale green and there’s a red carpet on the floor, all the seats also covered with a matching shade of red cloth.

A writing desk has been settled against one wall with a chair before it; a chair for the visitors settled sideways next to the table so that the visitor could keep eye contact with the man sitting behind the table. There’s a painting of a poppy field hanging on the wall above the desk and a selection of fine quills and sheaves of paper on the table.

The opposing wall supports a cabinet with numerous drawers, some of which can be locked to assure the privacy of the documents kept within; and a bookshelf with an eclectic choice of reading material from the finest philosophers of the time to some pattern books to a couple of biographies to works of Machiavelli. Against the third wall is a settee that can accommodate two people.
Wonder Woman

**Wonder Woman** or **"Wondy"** for short, real name **Diana Prince,** is a main character. In the series DC Super Hero Girls, she is the leader of the main group; consisting of Batgirl, Supergirl, Zatanna, Bumblebee and Jessica Cruz. She helps guide them through school life and makes it her mission to make the world a better and safer place for all. She’s happy and friendly, but can be a bit gullible and often takes things literally. She was created by Zeus out of clay and is the princess of Themyscira. Wonder Woman and her team will appear and join Skunk's Team in Skunk Meets The Incredibles.
Shooting Range

**Shooting Range**

Part of the Knightsbridge Barracks, spilling into St. James' Park, were the shooting ranges. These well-kept outdoor grass areas were used for target practice. The smallest, some fifty paces in length, was used for pistol practice, whereas the larger of the two, two hundred and fifty paces in length, was uses for musket fire. Weapons could not hit a target at such ranges, but a safety area was left in the back, to minimize accidents.
Khumba

**Khumba** is a young zebra from the Karoo Desert in South Africa. He was born in an isolated herd, with only half stripes. Because of this the herd believes he has brought a curse upon when it ceases to rain. Pretty soon his mother dies and Khumba blames himself for causing the lack of rain. After he leaves he soon meets a maternal wildebeest named Mama V and a flamboyant British ostrich named Bradley. So with the help of his new friends, along with Skunk and his team, Khumba must go on an incredible journey to find his stripes while being hunted by a murderous leopard named Phango.
Dragon

**Dragon**is a black dragon who is general of the Ninja Monkeys and serves as second in command to his apprentice Baboon and was the secondary antagonist in "Skunk Fu!" He now serves as the main antagonist in Skunk's Adventures series who works for most of the villains Skunk and his team come across.

But when Ursula's wicked sister Morgana appears to avenge her sister's death, it puts Melody and her family in danger. Now Skunk and his team must help protect their new friend stop Morgana before she takes of the ocean.
Royal Library

**Royal Library**

The ceilings of the Royal Library are 15 feet high. Shelves of polished walnut climb the walls to a height of 10 feet and are filled with books. Bindings of rich brown calf are interspersed with jewel-toned volumes of red, blue and green.

Windows set high in the walls above the shelving fill the room with light. A number of comfortable chairs in rich tobacco coloured leather are dotted about for the use of those reading for pleasure. For those who have a serious purpose, several tables and upright chairs are provided.

Damp is the natural enemy of the book. With the palace so close to the river, the battle is waged continuously. The Library has 6 fireplaces: fires are lit every day. The size of the blaze depends on the weather.

Mr Potts is the Keeper of the King's Books. It is rumoured that Mr Potts never sleeps and that he has forgotten his way home as a result of his devotion to his beloved volumes. Nonsense, surely, but Mr Potts does always seem to be in the Library...

His desk, well supplied with paper, quills and ink, is situated near the main door of the library. It is here that he works on his catalogue of the King's books. He also has an excellent view of the room and the doings of those therein, as well as seeing everyone who comes and goes.

The greatest treasure of the Library is situated by Mr Potts' desk. Held in an ever-locked case of walnut and glass, lies the Bible of King Henry VIII, who founded the English church. Bound in the finest of ruby-coloured leather, richly ornamented with gold and jewels, the book is a thing of great beauty quite apart from it's historical significance.

Travel Times

Sending a letter, small package, or even traversing the distance one's self, it is good to know how long the journey will take.

Below is a table of estimated travel times from London to various destinations in England, Scotland, Ireland, and on the Continent. They are listed in number of days, unless otherwise indicated.

These times assume average conditions and a distance covered of 50 miles per day, by land, and 120 nautical miles per day, by sea. Obviously, a tail wind will speed sea travel, and a storm will slow both land and sea travel. Other perils can occur as well, and are not reflected here.

Some port cities might be reached directly by ship, instead of going partly over land and thus speeding up the process considerably. However that is expensive and thus will be reserved for the diplomatic patch or a considerable surcharge. As an example Amsterdam by ship only will take you 1 ½ days (with further hours for where ever in the Netherlands you want your message delivered).
