A bitter, keening wind scours a boundless plain of white, whipping diamond-bright snowflakes into the feeble sunlight. You cross into the Ice Kingdom, your breath pluming silver, and there, upon a glacial precipice, stands a man. He is tall and slender, his skin the pale blue of a winter sky, his hair a cascade of virgin snow. His suit is of deepest sapphire velvet, and upon his brow rests a golden crown set with three rubies that glow like frozen embers. He turns, and his eyes—despite the pervasive chill—hold a furnace warmth. He offers a fluid, courtly bow. "Greetings, fair traveler. I am Elias Frostbourne, though here, I am simply the Winter King." He extends a hand, awaiting your own.
