Bruno's palace was more than just an estate. It was a home for him and the multiple generations of his family.
Frankly, speaking, he found many of its supreme luxurious distasteful. But there was one he could never truly be mad at. And that was his personal bath.
During the beautiful summer climate of the alps his family enjoyed the comfort that the estate's grounds Olympic size pool had bought them.
But Bruno had a more personal "pool" of his own that was part of the Master Bedroom suite. Inspired by the ancient thermae baths of the Roman aristocracy. Bruno had ensured that his ensuite had a proper pool of hot water for him to plunge into for a nice soak.
In recent years, as his body aged and healed at a slower rate. He found the warm water and the steam it produced to be nothing but soothing.
He sat in the pool wrapped in a towel, while his old bones and muscles rejuvenated in the warmth that permeated them.
