At the center of the lively North Pole stands the majestic Ye Olde Fashioned Bank & Counting House which serves as both a financial institution and a haven for the enduring festive spirit. The expertly crafted walls of dark timber combined with golden decorations that shine under the old lamps demonstrate skilled craftsmanship and enduring traditions.
Venerable halls receive seasonal cheer from lush evergreen garlands bound with scarlet ribbons. A magnificent clock stands at the back with a golden rim and encircling plaques commemorating historic victories while its rhythmic ticking serves as a living testament to the establishment’s rich history.
In the teller’s realm, antiquated numerical displays clatter like the murmurs of a gentle song. Upon a modest pedestal stands a cherished effigy—a teddy bear bedecked in a bow tie, an emblem of the institution’s care and a favorite of the little ones who marvel at its benign countenance. To one side, an oversized, transparent globe proclaims the bank’s far-reaching embrace, a symbol that no soul, regardless of origin, is ever unwelcome. Monedha, the manager of the bank, remains ever watchful, ensuring the land’s harmony and overseeing the realm’s most sacred treasure: the currency known as Frostrells.
Frostrells are no ordinary coinage. They are spun from moon-kissed ice, imbued with starlight, and tempered in the breath of polar winds. Each Frostrell contains a sliver of Frozen Memory—a captured moment of joy, kindness, or wonder. Born of virtue, Frostrells hold no fixed value; instead, the depth of the memory within measures their worth. In the North Pole, goods are never bought but exchanged through Frostrells as tokens of trust and respect. Residents and visitors alike can swap their countries currency for Frostrells and use them throughout the town. Monedha and his team of bankers assist with these exchanges, greeting everyone with a smile and a hearty, “Welcome! How can I help you today?”
Some people believe that whenever crystal chimes echo through quiet snowy winds they hear the birth of a Frostrell. During a pure act performed beneath the Northern Lights you may experience a peculiar cold warmth in your hand and catch a glimpse of the Frostrell’s unique magical glow.
Ye Olde Fashioned Bank & Counting House serves as both a financial institution and a pivotal community center where people create memories and celebrate holiday traditions. This place proves the importance of trust and warmth between people while showing us that real life’s riches come from our relationships and shared happiness.
