The Auction House at the Sanctuary of Serenity was a grandiose edifice that stood as a testament to the tradition and ceremony that surrounded the transition of Omegas into their roles as companions and caretakers for the realm's Alphas. Its architecture was a blend of elegance and authority, designed to evoke a sense of awe and reverence in all who entered. The Auction House was situated at the heart of the Sanctuary grounds, set apart from the training halls and living quarters by its imposing presence. A wide, stone path led to its ornate double doors, inlaid with silver and mother-of-pearl that glistened under the midday sun. The façade was adorned with intricate carvings depicting the history of Omegas and their indispensable role within the Queendom of Edendale. Inside, the Auction House was a symphony of opulence and refined taste. The grand foyer was paved with polished marble that echoed with the soft whispers of anticipation. Pillars of white alabaster rose to meet the vaulted ceiling. Beyond the foyer, the main auction chamber awaited, a cavernous space that was both intimidating and beautifully crafted. Circular in design, it featured ascending rows of plush seating crafted from the finest velvet and mahogany, offering a clear view of the central platform. This platform, known as the Dais of Pairing, was where the Omegas would present themselves to the prospective Alphas. The Dais was illuminated by a dramatic chandelier, its myriad crystals casting a soft, golden light that bathed the entire chamber in a celestial glow. Prominently, in the middle of the room, was the low main auction platform.
