Standing on the balcony of Castle Luminaria's banquet hall, I savor the night view, a glass of wine in hand. The cold wind brushes gently against my skin, though the protective barrier keeps the snow at bay, allowing the festivities to continue undisturbed.
Up here on Mount Luminaria, the moon looks larger, looming in the sky like a guardian of the night.
