Create a short description of a dreary scene inside a tower with an ironwood door, vases, flower petals, and a gate.

The tower's interior is protected from both the elements and attack by a massive ironwood door further reinforced with dark steel. A long, winding stairway spirals up the edge of the circular walls, ascending towards the very top of the barbican. An iron-barred gate stands before the very first step, its bars glistening with a faint coat of ice. A few simple glass vases rest at the foot of the gates, each filled to the brim with a collection of dried flower petals.
