The Palace of Serenity is the official residence of the PrincessOfCentralia, and thus the home of PrincessAlice, when she's not off studying at the boarding school in Havensborough. It is a large, elaborate palace located at the central point of downtown QueenCity, where it is the namesake landmark of the SerenityCircle.

Overview
The Palace of Serenity was built for PrincessMeredith many centuries ago when she established Queen City as the capital of Centralia. It has served as the official residence of Centralia's reigning monarch ever since.
As Princess Meredith has a propensity for flying, the palace was originally built with large trapdoors in the floors to allow Meredith to float between stories without using the stairs. Other members of Meredith's household learned very quickly to pay attention to where they were walking, as Meredith had a habit of leaving the trapdoors open. Many of the trapdoors were removed when PrincessJeanette had modern elevators installed in the palace, though a few remain in place today, kept closed and covered by rugs or carpeting.
Amenities
Stellar Nursery
The wing of the palace where Princess Alice primarily resides is known as the Stellar Nursery. The Stellar Nursery is enchanged with a unique form of empathetic magic, rearranging and reconfiguring itself based on the princess's mood. As the princess is notorious for her frequent and extreme mood swings, the layout of the Stellar Nursery is in a near-constant state of flux.

Public safety
Security and public safety operations within the palace and its grounds are the responsibility of the CentraliaHonorGuard, a division of the CentraliaGuardForces.
The Centralia Honor Guard operates the Palace of Serenity Fire Brigade, the palace's dedicated fire service. Despite having the smallest service area of any fire brigade in Centralia, the palace's fire brigade is one of the busiest. Firefighters usually serve only a few years at the palace before moving on to other departments, as cleaning up after the Princess's latest "experiments" can tire out even the most resilient of first responders.
