McNeil Island in Puget Sound is currently home to a bunch of prisoners, including a bunch of sexually violent predators. Fast forward a few generations, and both McNeil and Anderson Islands have been used as the foundations for a massive, complex, prison. It's visible easily from Ft. Lewis, still visible from any high point in Tacoma, but out of sight from Seattle. The major building is roughly rectangular, huge, blocky, and bears only slits for windows. I'm still working on what the interior should look like, but for now, exterior is what I have. It's flat-roofed, with no direct access from the inside of the building to the roof. Access to the prison is by ferry only, while access to the palace is air only, probably VTOL craft. Oh, the palace, I didn't mention that?
Atop the prison complex sits Victoria Scarlette's residence, a massive palace made of red stone and carefully rusted iron. This is where she lives, where she stays when not terrorizing the populace, and where countless people have disappeared. Torture chambers ranging from the medieval to the ultra-modern, and room after unpleasant room. This is not a nice place, and it should give that feeling of brutality behind a mask of civility.
