The ice palace has stood there for longer than the few souls still living in the village can remember. Inside dwells a hauntingly beautiful man who is rarely seen by anyone. Some whisper that he is imprisoned to prevent the use of forbidden magic, while others say he refuses to leave, consumed by sorrow for a lost love. Some believe he was punished, for his power was too great for any ruler to contain. Perhaps all of these stories are true, or perhaps none of them are.
