As he was given permission, the man entered into the large, empty room, where he saw the woman, he was meant to fetch sitting quietly at a small desk near the entrance of the room. The room was incredibly large, but also immensely cold and empty. 

The floors were made from hard, white marble with the walls complimenting the coldness with a light blue coloring. Periodically placed throughout the room were large windows with intricate snowflake designs decorating their faces, and with the moonlight shining through, they reflected those designs on the floors via their shadows. 

On the east side of the room was a large bed under a massive arch that was carved into the wall, and hanging from that ceiling was a candle lit, Dust chandelier that refused to illuminate the room. From the bed down to the other end of the room, was a long rug with noble designs sown into the soft fabric. 

On the far side of the room was a quieted fireplace, a small chair, glass coffee table, and a Piano. On that wall, was a large painting of the peak of the estate with a large Schnee Semblance glyph flying high above it.

As the man took a few steps into the room, he turned to face the somber woman who was sitting depressingly at her small table with two bottles of red wine at her side. "Mrs. Schnee, the master is calling for you" he said quietly. 

He then bowed slightly to the woman with a depressing look on his face, "I apologize. I was unable to stop him from requesting your presence." As he spoke, small tears weld up in his beady eyes, but he refused to allow them to fall.
