Hardhaigh Palace is a sub-area in Mor Ardain in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. It is the imperial residence and most likely where the Ardainian senate sits.
Landscape[edit]
Hardhaigh Palace is a gigantic castle on the outskirts of Alba Cavanich, housing the heart of the Empire, its emperor and the Imperial Senate. As such, it is heavily guarded by the Ardainian army and is equipped with a plethora of weapons.
The main entry point into the palace is from the capital's Nharil Central Plaza, through a long bridge that leads to the Hardhaigh Gate, which acts as a checkpoint for anyone who enters the area. From there, the lower level of the palace mostly consists of a very large corridor, populated with soldiers and the occasional senator, with elevators on both sides leading to the upper levels, that leads to a military dock.
The castle's second accessible level, its roof, can be accessed by taking the lower level's elevators up, both leading to opposing sides of the structures. The second level features another military port as well as a central elevator that leads up a central tower, where the Throne room can be found. Two even bigger towers can be found on either sides of this central tower, though they cannot be visited.
Along with its main structure, Hardhaigh Palace also has two wing areas, Jarlin and Grian, gigantic walls that jut out from both of its sides and encompass the capital. These walls are lined with huge cannons, as well as smaller ones, that most likely serve to repel any attack on the Titan. The second wing area, Grian, leads to the Bathein Watchtower and is the only way there other than scaling the stone pillar it sits on.
Most of the wing areas, as well as the bridge that leads into Hardhaigh Palace itself, are supported by the Fief of Forgetfulness.
