Freezis Mansion

The Freesis Mansion was the residence of the Freesis Family in Elphegort. Located in Aceid's Northern District, it functioned as both a living quarters for the merchant family and their many servants and as a meeting place for Keel's associates before being burned down in the Lucifenia-Elphegort War.

History

Early History

Around the mid EC 490s, Keel and Mikina Freesis moved into the mansion in the late fifth century EC and made it their home along with their children. As Keel's business grew, the mansion became a headquarters for the merchant guild and Keel held dinner parties at the estate each month for himself and his constituents.

Discovery of the Diva

On December 28, EC 499, Earl Felix visited the mansion to speak with Keel regarding Lucifenia's current affairs. During the banquet held the following month, one of the Freesis maids, Michaela, performed as the main event, wooing the audience with her singing. The green haired servant continued performing at subsequent banquets, becoming a sensation among the mansion's audience.

Later on, Kings Kyle Marlon and Thorny Elphen met with Keel at the mansion to discuss sending foreign aid to the Kingdom of Lucifenia repeatedly over the course of two weeks. Sometime after, Keel negotiated selling one of his collectables, the Venom Sword, to Gast Venom at the mansion. After the mercenary refused the asking price, the merchant received an ambassador from Lucifenia, Allen Avadonia, regarding the recent relief sent to the starving kingdom.

Lucifenia-Elphegort War

Several days later, Ney Futapie reported to the mansion regarding recent events in Lucifenia. Afterward, Keel called for a meeting of the family and some staff about Princess Riliane's on-going search for Kyle's Elphe sweetheart, Michaela. At the start of the Green Hunting a few days later, the staff fled the mansion and the family was arrested by the Lucifenian army shortly after. Once the family was deported to Lucifenia, the soldiers burned the mansion to the ground. Later on during the conflict, Elluka Clockworker and Gumillia visited the mansion's remains and salvaged Keel's collectibles from the estate warehouse.

Locations

Living Room

The main living space within the mansion. The room was furnished with a sofa, chairs, a table, and multiple paintings within a collection, as well as showcasing the only surviving piece from King Kyle's days as an artist. The living room was large enough to accommodate all of the staff and family members at once when called to a household emergency, and served as a lounge after dinner as well as another meeting place for Keel Freesis' guests.

Lobby

A room in which Keel entertained his guests. During his dinner parties, Keel would use the room to show off his treasured collections or other oddities to his business partners and friends. The room was spacious enough to hold multiple people as well as many other furnishings, including a piano and stage for performers to make use of.

Dining Hall

The room where formal meals would be served to the family. The room was large enough to seat all of Keel's multiple dinner guests during his periodic banquets, and was where the majority of meals were served for the Freesis household.

Waiting Room

The room for visitors preparing to meet with Keel. It was outfitted for holding any new guests and had at least one window looking outside.

Keel's Private Room

Keel's personal study. The space served as a meeting room for Keel and his associates, as well as guests visiting on political business. In addition, it acted as a makeshift storeroom for Keel's private collection, which included many rare and varied specimens. The room was furnished to accommodate a small number of guests with a table and a few chairs.

Servants' Room

The living quarters for the mansion's servants. The room was sized and furnished to accommodate all of the mansion's staff, serving as a place of rest when ever the household servants were not on duty; due to the large amount of work required of each servant, however, few spent much personal time in the room.

Laundry Room

The room used for washing linen. If conditions were unfavorable outside, lower servants on the mansion staff would use this room to store and wash the dirty clothes, as well as prepare them for use once clean.

Kitchen

The room in the mansion used for cooking the food. Meals for guests, family members, and mansion staff were prepared here by the servants in the household. Such meals included both lavish banquet dinners and customary snacks served during Keel Freesis' meetings with another guest. The kitchen was equipped with all necessary furnishings and materials for preparing each meal. 

Garden

A well kept enclosure just outside the mansion. The garden was a spacious fenced in area not far from Keel's room, containing lush vegetation, spare structural decor, and a fountain. The growth of the garden was tended according to Mikina Freesis' preference; while full of flowers during the warmer seasons, the garden became barren in the cold months due to plants losing their bloom.

Warehouse

The storehouse for Keel's purchased artifacts and merchandise. Items purchased for sale were moved to the warehouse until needed to be shown to buyers or at Keel's discretion. Due to the value of some of the artifacts stored within, the warehouse was sealed up and lower ranking servants were not allowed inside.
