William's Bed Chambers
Then William notices the outfit that his father is wearing for the ball.
George is dressed impeccably for the ball, exuding elegance and sophistication. He wears a classic black tuxedo that fits him perfectly, accentuating his frame. The jacket features satin lapels that add a touch of shine, while the crisp white dress shirt underneath is neatly pressed. A sleek black bow tie sits perfectly at his collar, neatly tied, showcasing his attention to detail.
His trousers are tailored to match the jacket, with a subtle break at the shoes, which are polished black leather oxfords that complete the ensemble. George also sports a stylish pocket square tucked into his jacket's breast pocket, adding a dash of flair. George maintains neatly combed hair and a confident posture, enhancing his gentlemanly appearance. Overall, George's outfit not only highlights his sense of style but also reflects the pride he takes in preparing for this special occasion.
William approached his father with a bright smile, admiring the carefully curated look. "Dad, I have to say, your outfit for the ball is absolutely stunning! The way you matched your jacket with those polished black leather oxfords is perfect. It really creates a sophisticated look, especially with that subtle break at the shoes.

Honestly, your outfit showcases your excellent sense of style and shows how much pride you take in getting ready for this special occasion. I can't wait to see you at the ball!"
George smiled warmly as he read his son's thoughtful compliment. He took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding.
"Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to me to hear that from you. I greatly appreciate your attention to detail and your eye for style. I constantly try to put my best foot forward, especially for special occasions like this. Knowing that you notice and appreciate it makes it all the more worthwhile.

William smiled warmly and nodded in agreement. "I agree. I share your excitement, Father. It's going to be a wonderful evening, and I can't wait to see how everyone enjoys themselves. Your attention to detail truly shines, and I'm sure it will make the night even more special."

With that, they exited the room together, the anticipation of the evening ahead fueling their steps as they made their way to the ballroom. The sounds of laughter and music began to drift through the air, heightening their excitement for the celebration to come.
As George and his son approached the Biltmore Estate ballroom, they were greeted by a breathtaking sight that perfectly encapsulated the winter theme of 1907. The grand entrance, adorned with intricately designed frosted glass doors, opened to reveal a majestic space that seemed to shimmer with the magic of the season.
Inside, the ballroom was illuminated by the warm glow of crystal chandeliers, each one draped with delicate strands of faux icicles and sparkling snowflakes. The ceiling, painted in soft shades of blue and silver, depicted a wintry sky, complete with swirling clouds and twinkling stars. It created an enchanting atmosphere, reminiscent of a winter's night.
Along the walls, garlands of evergreen boughs intertwined with twinkling white lights and silver ribbons, their fragrant scent mingling with the sweet aroma of winter treats. Large windows, draped with sheer white curtains, showcased the serene winter landscape outside, where snow blanketed the ground, adding to the ballroom's allure.
William glanced around the ballroom, his eyes alight with wonder. "The decorations are absolutely stunning," he remarked. "The shades of blue and silver really evoke the feeling of a wintry sky, and those swirling clouds and twinkling stars create such an enchanting atmosphere. It truly feels like we're in a winter's night dream. And the evergreen garlands with those delicate white candles and silver ribbons add a perfect touch of warmth, not to mention the delightful scent of winter treats in the air. It's just magical, especially with those large windows framing the beautiful snowy landscape outside."
George nodded in agreement, a smile spreading across his face. "You're absolutely right! The silver really does capture that wintry sky vibe, and I love how the swirling clouds and twinkling stars create such a captivating atmosphere. It really does feel like we're wrapped up in a winter's night dream. The evergreen garlands, adorned with delicate white candles and silver ribbons, provide the perfect amount of warmth. The scent of winter treats wafting through the air is simply enchanting. It's simply enchanting. With those large windows framing the stunning snowy landscape outside, it truly is magical."
Then Gerald enters the ballroom.
Gerald turns to George and asks, "Should I bring in the guests now?"
George nods and replies, "Yes, please do. It's time to welcome them in."
With a deep breath, Gerald stands at the entrance, ready to welcome the guests. The moment has arrived to invite everyone into the beautifully adorned ballroom, where the atmosphere is charged with anticipation and joy. As the doors swing open, the sound of laughter and music spills out into the hallway.
George glances at William, a spark of excitement in his eyes. "Are you ready?" he asks, eager to embrace the festivities.
