This is how it could look
Authoritative and educational medieval castellan scene. The castellan: a serious, responsible-looking middle-aged man — not the lord himself, but the lord's trusted steward who manages the castle in the lord's absence. Dressed in practical but well-made clothing (fine wool tunic and surcoat, no armour). At his belt: a large iron key ring with many different-sized heavy iron keys (each key for a different part of the castle — the great hall, the treasury, the granary, the armoury, the dungeons). He is standing in the great hall or at the castle gate, holding an open ledger book (the castle accounts). He is speaking to or inspecting someone — perhaps a steward, a servant carrying food supplies, or a guard. Behind him: the castle interior — stone walls, a great hall with a long table and banners hanging from the walls, or the castle gate with a portcullis. On the table behind: sacks and barrels being inventoried.
