Royale Lobby Scarlet Carpet
A wide, garish scarlet carpet stretches across the Royale's casino lobby, its plush pile and saturated red hue amplifying the room's sensory overload. Worn in high-traffic strips, the carpet emits a faint musty casino odor; footsteps sink and echo differently on it, disorienting newcomers and framing the trio's stunned arrival amid flashing machines and a piano player's tune.

Purpose
Floor covering and decorative set dressing that defines the casino lobby's aesthetic and directs foot traffic; functions practically as the lobby's primary surface underfoot.
Significance
Operates as a mood-setting device that heightens claustrophobia and artificiality, helping to seal the characters inside the enclave and convert curiosity into urgent isolation; the carpet's gaudy presence anchors the lobby's constructed, narrative-locked atmosphere.
