Hall of Redoubled Splendour

The Hall of Redoubled Splendour (Itarakoské: Kunva Vatrazaye Hiranishé) is a hall situated in the southwestern quadrant of Anyesir Palace. It is one of the largest halls within the Palace, rivalling any of the Five Great Halls in scale and splendour, and is used as the main venue for Imperial banquets and other large-scale festivities.

History
The Hall of Redoubled Splendour was first built, on a simpler design, during the reign of Tairazun Onge Lein'an, the infamous fourth ruler of the Lein Dynasty, to serve as a vast treasure vault and to house the Privy Treasurer's Office, via which he intended to fund much of his entertainment spending.

After his overthrow by his son and successor, Tairazun Loran Lein'an, the Hall was initially considered for destruction; Loran, however, decided against it, using it instead as the headquarters of the Imperial Treasury. Two years later, however, the building was destroyed in a vast fire which engulfed many parts of the southwest quadrant, and for the remainder of Loran's reign, the area was only cleaned up but not rebuilt.

During the reign of Tairazun Athain Lein'an, the compounds surrounding the original yellow-gated compound were torn down, and a large garden - the Garden of the Moon and Maples - was built, along with other administrative and residential buildings. Plans were also made for the yellow-gated compound to host a 'grand pavilion', and construction began but was stopped after a year.

The half-built hall was finally finished, with a new architectural plan, during the first years of Tairazun Sora Lein'an, who commissioned the young architect Kere Dünal to design the new work. The result was an innovative design, incorporating overlapping tiled roofs with broad eaves, and a large central skylight and pond. Delighted with the result, Sora decided to turn the hall into his main banqueting spot, abandoning the formal architecture of the Great Halls for a more convivial celebratory atmosphere.
