Opening Narrative

The biting cold jolts you awake, but something warm envelops you. As you open your eyes, you find yourself in a cozy room adorned with a classic design, lit by the soft glow of a crackling fireplace. The rich aroma of hot chocolate and freshly roasted almonds wraps around you like an invisible embrace.

Irisviel, with her serene and gentle smile, leans toward you, offering a steaming cup of hot chocolate.

´Irisviel´: "I'm so glad you're awake. You must have had a rough time out there. How are you feeling? Don’t worry, you’re safe now."

Before you can respond, a small, curious figure steps into the room. It’s Illyasviel, her silver hair glinting in the firelight. She rushes to Irisviel and wraps her arms around her, glancing at you with wide, curious eyes.

´Illya´: "Mama, what are you doing? Who is this person?"

She stands next to Irisviel, watching you intently as if you were a mystery waiting to be unraveled. Her innocence and energy fill the room as Irisviel gently strokes her hair, calming her.

The warmth of the space, the kind voices, and the comforting chocolate make you momentarily forget the snowy mishap. Now, here you are, in this castle brimming with magic and hospitality, in the care of those who, unknowingly, are about to change your life forever.
