Summary: Living of any kind requires effort, cleanliness, and food. Living in Dark World isn't any exception at all.
The mansion looked quite impressive from the outside. The inside was a different matter altogether. Altogether it consisted of perhaps a dozen or so rooms, but only a handful of them were actually usable.
And of that handful, only one of them contained a bed. Or in fairness, room for a bed. At least once they disposed of what was already there.
Edo prodded the pile of moss and branches with the tip of his shoe, a frown tugging at his lips.
"How are we going to get this out?" Whatever had settled this in here hadn't come back in so long that fresh moss and somewhat aromatic mold grew around the pile. He wasn't surprised to find that even here, there was enough of a leak in the ceiling so that the room required repairs.
Hell Kaiser stared thoughtfully at the pile before he offered an answer.
"We can get a tarpaulin from one of the villages and drag it out. We'll need something to clean and repair this place if we're going to stay here."
Edo couldn't deny that, even though he wanted to. They needed to stay somewhere and they didn't have any money to rent a room. No one else seemed to live in the area and they needed a base. He didn't like it but their options were too limited.
"So what are we going to trade for a tarp?" Edo smirked. "Or for a bucket and hot water and everything else that we need?"
