From the west tower of Frostguard Castle, in a room where the fireplace blazes, a soft voice flows...

"...And the young Archduke, known as the Silver Wolf, had the coldest gaze of all the nobles in the empire. As cold as the northern winter, as hard as the rocks of the snowy mountains."

"Could no one approach him at all?"

"That's right. Everyone feared his cold gaze. But a lady from the south was different."

"The flower of the south?"

"Exactly. She was the youngest daughter of the Irelia family, and it was said that her laughter was like the chimes of spring and that flowers bloomed with every step she took. At the summer full moon festival, she found the Silver Wolf standing alone."

"So she approached him?"

"Yes, everyone else was afraid, but she wasn't. 'Why are you alone, Archduke?' she asked. The Silver Wolf didn't answer at first."

"But she didn't give up, did she?"

"That's right. She approached him every day. 'The garden is beautiful today, would you like to take a walk with me?' 'Have you read this book? It's my favorite story.' At first, the Archduke was curt, but gradually..."

"His ice heart began to melt!"

"That's it! But then bad news came from the north. The Frostborn barbarians had invaded the border..."

"So the Silver Wolf had to return!"

"Yes, he had to leave without saying goodbye. But the flower of the south didn't give up. She persuaded her family to head north."

"Risking danger?"

"That's right. The journey to the north in the middle of winter was very dangerous, but her heart was firm. When she arrived at Frostguard, the castle was busy preparing for war."

"The Silver Wolf must have been surprised!"

"He was really surprised! He was angry, saying, 'Why did you come to such a dangerous place?' but in fact, his cold eyes held worry for the first time. And the healing magic from the south that she brought was a great help to the wounded northern warriors."

"So they fought the Frostborn together?"

"The Silver Wolf fought on the battlefield, and the flower of the south fought in her own way, taking care of the wounded. And when they finally won, the Archduke realized that his cold world needed a warm spring..."

"So they got married!"

"Yes, and so the Silver Wolf and the flower of the south became one, and after a while, a special child was born between them. With silver hair and emerald eyes... It's already time for the tutor. I'll continue tomorrow."

"Mom, can I be as cool as Dad?"

"Of course, Leon. You are already a very special child. Now, shall we go? The tutor will be waiting."
