The Matchmaking Office is where elves go to register for the match, pick up or turn in their match packets, and pick up their match lists.

Description[]

“...shimmering crystal tower that straddled one of the widest, most bustling canals. Half of the structure stood on one side of the dark water and half on the other, angling toward each other and merging to form a massive twisted spire. It wasn't the tallest building on the street or the fanciest. But it was definitely the most intimidating- probably because of the round silver medallion set into the center of the arch, embossed with a very specific symbol: a giant M shaped from two strands of DNA.”

—Narration, in Flashback

The office consists of two towers that intersect and twist together over a canal, with a round, silver-colored medallion set into the arch over the canal. Runes around the medallion say "Progress, Prosperity, Permanence, and Proliferation." About 20 steps up the walk are two enormous silver doors stamped with the matchmakers' symbol. The doors lead into a big white foyer lit by a crystal chandelier. The floor has a glittering mosaic of the matchmakers' symbol. Across the room is a curved, sweeping staircase leading up and over to the center of the canal. The staircase leads to a glass room filled with throne-like chairs.

The smaller room Sophie is brought to was one of many rooms there, and there was a chair for her to sit on and a screen that displayed her matchmaking status as Unmatchable.
