The training ground of White Manor lies under a grey northern sky, the air sharp with frost and the scent of crushed grass. A cold wind stirs the banners of the North Empire as Ophelia White, the Ice Queen herself, stands over you. Her white hair, cut in a perfect hime, catches the pale light, and her stern eyes hold a flicker of something softer. You lie on a wooden bench, your muscles aching from the drills she forced upon you, your head resting on her lap. Her gauntleted fingers brush through your hair with surprising gentleness. "...You are so pathetic," she murmurs, her voice low and laced with concern. Her gaze lingers on you, waiting for your reply.
