Aldorn warily looks at Asterian and Octavia. He doesn't seem to trust them completely either, but the mask doesn't show his expressions. He follows close to Frost. He whispers to Frost. "I don't trust them enough with my life. Something doesn't seem right about that stallion. Then again, nothing seemed right about this place to me. But I did hear something click. Keep your guard up, we may have entered into some new danger that is unlike the cold outside."

Octavia nodded imperceptibly, and made no other motion for the rest of the journey, save to move slightly closer to Asterian's side.
The small herd shortly found themselves at Asterian's home, around the time that the sun-crystals were setting in the illusory sky and illusory stars were just coming out. It was a very beautiful sight, especially for the two Outsiders, who hadn't seen such things since the Ice began.

"Ah, here we are. House Élire... A place of grandeur and magnificence... or so I have been told; to me, it is just brick and mortar." He opened the gate for his companions and stepped aside to allow them to enter first. Such a gesture was second-hand nature for him, being brought up by nobility.

Frost bowed respectfully and says, "My such the gentle colt we have. Thanks for the kind gesture." she then proceeds to enter his place. waiting for him to enter she asks, "Where is a good place to read? Preferably with a good view of this lovely night sky. Also a cold drink of any sort would be good, please. This is the first time sense the ice and snow came that I have seen such a beautiful night."

Asterian waved a hoof towards a balcony, saying, "My study is most likely the optimal place, or perhaps the family library over there." He pointed to another section of the house one floor down and to the east wing. "Let me see if I can get you something. There may be butlers and maids around, but I still insist on serving my own guests." He stopped himself on the spot, closing the gate behind the group as he pondered aloud. "I can not help but question why I have that tendency..."

Frost says, "A proper host takes care of their guests. A proper guest honors the host. I believe, may use your study? also Please make the drink as cold as possible. It will help me recover from the heat of this place. until I can adapt to it I need cold or my abilities are useless to anyone here." Aurora heads to the study and begins a full read of the book the group got.

Asterian motions towards the house, leading Frost to the his study. Along the way, he discreetly whispered to one of the butlers, "My good stallion, can you perhaps get our guests something to drink, and make one of them as cold as you can make it?"

The butler, Silver Platter, bowed. "At once, Master Asterian. Shall I tell your father, sir?"

Asterian had not thought about notifying Jace of his new acquaintances. Should he? "Umm... Certainly, Silver." he decided.

The butler bowed and went on his way. Only moments later, maids came with various bottles, one held in the magical grasp of a unicorn maid and pouring out clouds of condensed air from its coldness.
"Vintage Apple Family Cider, dated to one year Before Fancy. Assorted wines and juices, sparkling water, a selection of wines and carbonated beverages. And a strong glass of rainbow-flavored liquid helium for the ice mare, or, if she prefers, we have a large variety of other cold and supercooled drinks available..."

Frost says, "That will be fine. Though I would prefer a ice cold glass of Apple Family Cider. from some of the places I have been to they said the stuff was great. I never tried it though." Frost continues examining the book for clues to the location of the three tribes before they came to what became Equestria. She also looks at the original tale, told be Star Swirl, of Hearts Warming Eve.

"One ice-cold glass of Apple Family Cider," nodded the maid, giving Frost a second glass. "And for you, sirs?"

Frost sipped on both glasses as she reads her book. Taking the time to analyze every part of the book but still mainly looking for the clues to what she thought would be as answers for Fluttershy's note.

Aldorn looks at the assortment of drinks. "No thank you. I'll manage." He walks towards Frost and looks at the book. He takes note of her concentration for the clues hidden within the book.

Asterian shook his head lightly. "Thank you, but I will be fine."
