The Freezis Mansion was the residence of the Freezis 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 Freezis moved into the mansion 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 Freezis 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 collectibles, 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 treasury.

The room was furnished with a fine sofa with a small table on the left side along with another luxury couch and chairs on either side; a rug was laid beneath them. Along the wall behind the sofa was an armoir with modest decorations. The walls were decorated with Keel's private art collection, including the only surviving portrait drawn by King Kyle.

Servants' Room

The living quarters for the mansion's servants.

The kitchen was furnished with a counter and cabinets equipped with all the necessary tools for preparing each meal; an open firestone oven was built into the far left wall with the main entrance and exit to the right of it past the counter. 

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 Freezis' preference; while full of flowers during the warmer seasons, the garden became barren in the cold months due to plants losing their bloom.

Laundry Area

The outside area used for washing linen. It served as a spot for servants to clean and dry clothes in the open air. It was situated around the garden area behind the main estate. It maintained a wooden water basin for soaking and scrubbing clothes along with a few tables for folding and stacking.

Treasury

The storehouse for Keel's purchased artifacts and merchandise. Items purchased for sale were moved to the treasury until needed to be shown to buyers or at Keel's discretion.
