So... after much trying (even though now I am greatly absorbed by the perspectives and efforts of joining a Coffee Nostra family in Genua), I finally managed to navigate a lattice in the Unseen University cafeteria, gaining access to a new space: a posh outdoor bar only senior Wizards generally seem to be able to enjoy...
The maze of the lattice seems clear to you as you navigate your way through an opening.
The central feature of this bar is a tall cabinet wrapping around three of the four sides, with a long sideboard covering the fourth. Behind them is nothing but sky. A lush carpet lies underfoot, and several deep chairs are scattered around the platform, each accompanied by a small side table. The mood is one of sombre yet overpowering opulence.
It is a pleasantly warm autumn prime's morning with almost no wind and a beautifully clear sky.
There are no obvious exits.
The Green Slab box is near the entrance.

You whisper into the Sung family crest.
(Wizards) Winswand's wispy voice comes from the Sung family crest, saying: ok... got in!
>look cabinet
The alcoholic credentials of this bar are displayed along three of the four sides in this platform. On each corner of the platform sits a short, fat column of white marble. Resting on these are thin sheets of granite, coloured a deep arterial red. Under the sheets sit vats, some made of glass, others from ancient-looking oak or pitted and scratched metal. There appears to be no way to move the contents of the vats into a handy receptacle, but no doubt those entitled to be here know the secret.
>look columns
The columns supporting the top of the cabinet are white marble. They are inset with gold veins which wind around in glittering spiderwebs.
>look spiderwebs
An intricate golden tracery adorns the white columns, lending that touch of tasteless ostentation that just yodels "Wizard".
>look vats
Several large vats sitting under the counter hold the alcoholic contents of this bar. Most seem to be made from glass, and contain sticky, brightly coloured liquids, but others are of oaken construction, well weathered by time. Still others have been formed from metal which has been scarred where caustic liquids have bestowed their touch. Each one is sitting under a well-polished gold plaque, which presumably lists their contents.

>look sideboard
Continuing the theme of the cabinet, long strips of red rock stretch along the southern edge of this platform, forming a series of shelves.
On the sideboard are an ornate decanter, four crystal glasses and three crystal goblets.
>look decanter in sideboard
This extremely ornate decanter has been fashioned from intricately moulded crystal. Several upswellings of crystal resemble roses, each with a shimmering octarine at the centre.
It is in excellent condition.
It is open.
>look glass in sideboard
This glass has been fashioned from crystal, with a small octarine set into the base.
It is in excellent condition.
>look goblet in sideboard
This goblet has been fashioned from crystal, patterned with a ring of birds around the rim.
It is in excellent condition.
It is open.
>look carpet
The thick carpet is a blue so dark it is almost black. Points of glitter catch any available light, transforming the floor into a small, sparkling galaxy. It is speckled with many holes.
>look holes
Several holes have been cut out of the floor, to allow access for some highly polished pipes. Several of the holes are circular, but some of them are more exotic in nature.
Some of the holes in the floor are the best proof that this room doesn't exist in the set of dimensions commonly referred to as reality. The one shaped like a four cornered triangle is evidence enough.
>look chairs
The chairs scattered around are deep leather, thickly padded and black as midnight. They have curving arms which enfold the sitter, and a high back which protects the occupant from ambitious fellow wizards, as well as functioning as a pillow in times of need.
>look tables
Each chair is paired with a side table, cut from pine wood that looks whiter than pine wood has any right to be. Small black doilies decorate their surfaces, without which their tops would be mazes of overlapping circles.
I haven't found yet a way of getting my drinks, so if you have any suggestions, pray do tell, as I am dead thirsty...
