"This seems to be the place," Irene spoke as she stood in front of the big house at the center of the village. Looking at the high end house in this village-like town, one can easily infer how 'good' of a lord the Mayor is.
"Let's knock on the door," I spoke as I walked towards the main gate with Irene. There were a couple of guards chatting and laughing with each other in the guard post. At first, they didn't seem to care enough about who was coming near to the mansion, but then as our steps failed to stop, their chatter halted and they looked at us.
