As soon as Wil showed the badge to the gatekeeper, he was stunned at first and rubbed his eyes to see the badge again whether he was dreaming or not. After confirming it's real, tears filled his eyes as he bowed to Wil.
After a while, he calmed down and greeted Wil with a bow as he introduced himself, "My name is Borris, milord. I used to be the Steward of the mansion but now I'm currently working as the gatekeeper. Forgive me for the unsightly display. It's been a very long time since we had a mayor. I thought his majesty had abandoned the people of the town."
*Ding. Favorability with Borris increased by 20
As Wil unlocked the house with his key, he found the inside of the house, a bit old and dusty.
Borris then said, "as you can see, it's been 15 years since the last mayor used to live… Just give me a day, milord. I'll make the house as good as new and will hire the necessary staff for it."
