[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 8113298, member: 2012"] "At the very least, we will be better prepared," Vinccenzo replies. The walk to the Simonis estate doesn't take very long at all. The estate sits against the outer wall of Old City in the quarter known as Eastern Lilal. This part of Old City isn't as overwrought with gaudy décor as the northern areas of the district around the palace. The homes here are well maintained but tastefully designed. Tim remembers the first time he came here with Terger and Relgar and how he immediately felt at home in the quarter, as it it immediately reminded him of the capital city of Ilfrey back in Vrocia. Now, in the fog, it really sinks home, as it reminds him of the cloud forests that engulf much of the mountain kingdom. That feels so long ago and far away now even though its been barely a month since Mirella chose him to come to Kulan for a mission to protect Bluffside and deal with the renegade. When you arrive at the ancentral home of the Simonis family, you find the front gate locked but Tim's key opens it and you walk into a small courtyard. The gate swings shut and locks behind them. The manor house is at least two-stories high with a bell tower and Tim can tell the courtyard gardens have been tended to more than the first time he was here. All the windows are shuttered but light shines from inside. The front door is locked as well, but the key opens it with ease. The interior is well kept and clean. The house is well appointed and a family crest is inlaid in the marble floor of the foyer. A pair of symmetrically aligned stairs spiral upward to allow access to the second floor of the manor. Two stout wooden doors flank both sides of the foyer and a well lit hallway runs under the balcony towards the back of the house. [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]"This a nice house,"[/COLOR] Vinccenzo says. [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]"Your friend lives here?"[/COLOR] He asks Tim. [COLOR=rgb(84, 172, 210)]"Master Klaus is currently not at home,"[/COLOR] a deep, melodic voice resounds in the hallway.
