Heya! I'm writing this because i had inspiration. I will use the actual familia members of Artemis, but the rest are all OCs. No this doesn't follow the Movie, or really anything. It has a very light interpretation of the Anime story. Sword Oratoria will be loosely followed, if at all.
Artemis doesn't forbid love in this story. Her other familia members are alive in this story, and has a decently large familia, but is not one of the biggest ones.
Because I haven't seen the movie, i will not be including those events unless I watch the movie, then i might, but it's less than likely.
Whenever there is alcohol involved, i will just use Earth alcohol, not DanMachi drinks, because then writing would be harder on me.
I'm just going to use Latin as the language they don't understand.
Please write a review on whether you want me to use Japanese Name honorifics (-sama, -san, etc), or if you just want me to use english honorifics (lady/lord, Ms. Mr., etc).
For now I'll just english ones.
Chapter I: Wolf
"Come on, Goddess!" an Amazoness said to her blue haired deity.
"Mmm, where are we going, Kanjiu?" A still sleepy Artemis said, as she was rudely awakening from a 'before dusk' nap, however, at this time of day, it's already after sundown, or 10:24 pm.
"We're going to go get a drink. You've been super stressed since the others left on the expedition. I get you're worried about them, but they'll be fine. I promise." the amazoness assured her.
"Are you sure?" The Goddess asked, with a worried face.
"Of course." she responded.
"O-ok. fine, but one meal."
"Of course, Lady Artemis, one meal, my treat." Kanjiu said, "we're here!"
They stopped walking.
They entered the Hostess of Fertility, and sat at a table along the wall.
"What can I get 'cha? Nya!" A cat-girl asked the pair.
"One of your finest beers, please, and, whatever she orders." Kanjiu said referring to Artemis.
"OK, nya~!" she sang as Artemis gave the cat person her order.
"Thank you, for this, Kanjiu," Artemis said.
"Oh, no problem, My Lady," she said to her goddess, "I'm going to ask the bartender something, OK?"
The Goddess 'mhmm'ed.
Kanjiu leaned on the bar.
"So, what do you need, Kanjiu?" Mia Grand asked.
"What no 'hello?' or 'how are you doing?'" she joked.
"No. not for you." the dwarf said angrily.
"Anyway, I need you to add something strong to whatever Lady Artemis orders. Something to help her stop thinking for the night." she said.
"Why?"
"It's because she's been so distant since the expedition left. She's worried something will happen, considering how far down they're going. I, and the others that are still here worried for her. If you do this, I'll order the most expensive alcohol on the menu for the next two weeks." she reasoned.
"Deal." Mia said.
"Anya! Come here!" Mia said.
"Hey-nya!" the cat person said.
"Add this to whatever Lady Artemis orders, please." she handed a small vial, filled with a colourless, and odorless liquid.
"Nya?" she said confused, her brown eyes looking at Kanjiu and Mia.
"Thanks, Ms. Grand."
"For the last time, call me Mia!" she responded.
"Fine, fine!" Kanjiu didn't wait for a response.
She walked back over to her Goddess, who was having a problem trying to sit still.
"Something wrong?" she asked.
"No, I think I'm just going to get some fresh air.
Artemis stepped outside the bar, and straight into someone, as her vision went black.
The Wolf. That was what they called him. Not because he had wolf ears and a tail, but because he looked like a wolf, and had the senses of one.
Pure blue eyes, that looked like miniature hurricanes, white face, Dark grey hair, that went everywhere. There was no containing his hair.
He was in Orario to become an adventurer, but there was no familia that peaked that his interest, or that were interested in him.
So, he was searching. Searching for a family that would accept him.
Both Freya and Loki, had denied him. Even familias that he wasn't interested in denied him. Now his only option was the Artemis Familia. He was on his way to get an entry form.
His primary weapon was a knife or dagger, but he had a sword strapped to his back, which was named 'Elucidator,' the sword to clear his path. The two knives strapped to his belt, one on the side, the other on the back, didn't have a name.
The only way he identified them was what was on their blade. The one on his back had the word engraved 'lupus' on it, the other had 'solus' engraved on it. solitarius lupus. Lone Wolf. He was called that for being a loner. He doesn't have any friends, because what he did a decade ago. He let his entire village burn, because he was deceived by friends. So he doesn't trust anyone, because he trusted the wrong people.
Anyway, when he was walking along the street, suddenly a girl fell on him.
"Oh sorry, Ma'am..?" he said as he caught the falling person, "are you alright?"
Wolf looked at the girl, who had fallen asleep in his arms.
Oh boy, he thought.
He brought the girl over to a wall, for her to lean on. He set the girl down. Now that he could see her, he saw that she had blue hair, with a golden ring around the top. Her hair was tired in a braid behind her head. He didn't need to look at the rest of her attire. He was staring at the Goddess Artemis.
"Um… Goddess Artemis?"
"Wha..? whoo arre youuu?" she slurred out.
"I'm The Wolf. Miss, you shouldn't be out in this condition, do you need someone to bring you back to your home?" he asked, "Did you come here with anyone?"
"Buunnnyy?"
"No, I'm The Wolf." he responded.
"Doogg?"
"No. Wolf."
"Cattt?"
"No. I am The Wolf. You are Artemis. I'm The Wolf, see? I look like a wolf."
"Wolfff…"
"Yeah. Wolf." close enough.
"Did you come here with anyone?" he asked again.
"Nyuuuu." No. ok, that makes my job easier.
"Alright. I believe you need to be taken back to Crescent Palace. How do you want to be brought back?" he asked.
"Baack..!" she slurred.
He sighed. "Ok, one sec." The Wolf unstrapped his sword, and attached it to his hip, like a Rapier, though it was uncomfortable as his sword was a broadsword, but he bared through it.
He looked back at the now sleeping goddess.
"Wake up, you need to get on my back before you doze off, OK?" he looked at the goddesses green eyes that had fluttered open.
"OOKK Wollffiee," she said.
"Please don't call me that," he pleaded.
Artemis got on his back, and nuzzled her head against his neck. He sighed again.
He started towards the Crescent Palace.
Kanjiu was chatting with the girls of the Hostess of Fertility, when she realized something.
She straightened her back suddenly, "Where's the Goddess?!"
She ran out of the bar frantically.
"Did any of you see Goddess Artemis?!"
"Yeah she went with this wolf lookin' kid."
Aww crap! She ran back inside to pay her tab.
"Fassterr!"
"No, I'm not going to go faster." He was already jogging, any faster, The Wolf would have run the risk of her falling off of his back, considering how loose her hold on him is.
The massive Crescent Palace loomed in the distance, for being such a small familia, it didn't make sense for it to be so big, but he didn't question it, especially the person he needed to ask was the drunk, and sleeping person on his back.
He sighed. Alright, I'm about fifteen from her house, maybe then I can hand in my application form to the captain.
"Exxpidditionn… cooome hooomee…" Artemis whispered, still asleep.
"So they're on an expedition. Great," The wolf signed again, "I'll ask somebody at Crescent Palace, before I leave tonight."
Ten minutes later he was in front of the Palace.
"Alright, are you awake?" He asked the goddess.
"Huh? Yeahh…" she slurred.
"Good," he said.
He kept walking, until he reached the front gates.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" He shouted at the gates.
"What do you want?" A rough voice shouted back.
"I have your drunk goddess," he responded.
"WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH HER!?" A clear feminine voice said, as the gate started to be opened.
"She was drunk out in front of a bar, so I brought her back," he said, sounding bored.
"Gods… why, Kanjiu?" The rough voice from before said.
"Huh? Kanjiu?" He asked.
"Yeah, the amazoness with her." The girl said from before.
"Oh great I got deceived again… so there was someone there with her?" He asked.
"Yeah… her name is Kanjiu." The voice said.
"Anyway, what do I do now? Do I have you take her in, or what?" He asked.
"Please bring her in. I can see your intentions, and you don't mean anything bad." A cool, calm feminine voice said.
"How can you just say that, Rethusa?!" The high pitched voice from before asked/shouted.
"Be quite Lante, you know very well that he won't do anything," the calm one said.
"Fine, but if he does anything, it's your fault, Rethusa,"
The calm one didn't say anything for a moment, "whatever, her room is on the top floor, three left turns then a right, then her room is at the end of the hall,"
"Oh, ok," he said, as he entered the Palace.
"Top floor, left, left, left, right, end of hall, got it." He repeated the words over and over until he reached the stairs.
Oh boy, stairs.
He started going up. How many floors are there?!
After a couple of minutes of difficulty trying to climb the stairs with a sleeping goddess on his back, he reached the top floor.
"Now, three lefts and a right," he murmured to himself.
The Wolf checked his watch. 12:34 that's late. Or is it early?
One left. Two lefts. Three lefts. And a right. I should hand in my application form after I drop the Goddess off at her room.
He reached her room.
As the one named Rethusa said, it was on the end of the hallway.
"Hey, Lady Artemis?"
"Mmmm..?"
"We're at your room. You need to get off my back please," he asked, trying to pull the goddess of his back.
Unknown to him, a certain elf had followed them.
"Lady Artemis?" Lante asked, "I must insist that you get off this.. ehm, human." She said the word with disgust.
"Nyouou.. get your ownn wolfie…!" She said.
"What? Please Lady Artemis I must insist that I go-!" He never got to finish what he was saying, as Artemis pulled him into her room, and locked the door behind them.
She tossed him on the bed, then layed on top of him.
"Goddess Artemis, please I have-, of course she's asleep already," he groaned.
"Fine, have it your way!" He said.
"lupus forma," The Wolf muttered. This is why he had his name. For his magic, that turned him into a wolf.
He layed out, with the goddesses head on his body.
He shortly fell asleep after.
The next morning, Artemis woke with a massive headache.
"Owww…" why did her head hurt so much? And what was this fur?
She pulled her body up, and looked at a sprawled out wolf.
"Huh? How did you get in here? And when did I, Uh, get back to my room?" She asked herself.
The wolf opened his blue eyes.
"Oh hello, you might be able to explain why I'm here, can't you?" She asked sarcastically.
"Forma humana," the words rang in her ears.
Suddenly the wolf wasn't a wolf anymore, it was a human.
"Yeah I can," the man said.
"Wha..? How did you do that? What Familia are you apart of?" She asked.
"None, and it's my magic, it allows me to transform into a wolf and back, why?" He said.
"What I want to know is why you're not only in my house, but my room," she said quizzically.
"Uh, because you dragged me in here. Yep, and I was just trying to leave. Your welcome, by the way, I brought you back here," he said, "speaking of familia, can I join yours?" He asked it as if I was asking for directions, not at all like others have asked.
"Why?"
"I'm searching for a family that would except me, no matter the flaws and sins I have," he was now fumbling with a sword sheath, trying to strap it to his back.
"Huh,"
"What?" He asked, confused.
"That's the most honest answer I've ever gotten," she confessed.
"But, I still don't trust you with my story, at least until I am part o your familia, if I ever am."
"Yes," she said.
"Wait what?" He asked.
"You can join, you look like your good with a bow. It's mandatory, by the way," she said.
"Of course it is, don't worry I already know how to use a bow, I was taught at a very young age," he said.
"Uh, you know I was joking, right?"
"What? Oh yeah sure I did,"
"Anyway, take off your shirt and and lay on the bed, back up, after you tell me your name."
"The Wolf," he said, monotone.
"Eh wha?"
"The Wolf, it was the only name I was given, beside all the other nicknames I had," the goddess knew he wasn't telling the whole truth, but let him get her Falna anyway.
"I'm just going to shorten it to 'Wolf,' OK, Wolfie?"
"Please don't call me that," he pleaded.
"Nope! Unless you don't want to be in my familia,"
"Eh! F-fine, just please don't call me that around anybody, ever," he said as he took off his shirt, and laid down on the bed.
"No promises," was all she said, before coming face to back with probably hundreds of scars, "do you mind if I use this," she took his back knife out of its sheath, "thanks,"
She studied the knife for a second, its engravement, "lupus?" She whispered to herself.
"What?"
"Nothing!" She said as she pricked her finger on its tip, and let it drop on his back.

He stared at the paper. Welp, I'm finally here, adventuring and all. I think I should register at the Guild before I go to sleep.
He made his way through the city until he reached a building marked 'Guild Headquarters.'
He walked through the doors, reaching the front desk.
"Hello? I would like to register as an adventurer," he said the a brown haired woman.
"Oh hello, I am Guildswoman Eina Tulle, now if you would please state your name, familia, age, and level," she said.
"Wolf, Artemis Familia, thirteen, and level one," he said.
"OK, please sign here, here and here," he signed where he was told too.
"And there you go. You're all set, now, do you have any Armor or weapons?" She asked Wolf.
"Yes, I have two daggers and a sword,"
"Armor?"
"I don't use armor, it's too loud, and it can slow down speed and agility," he said.
"Uh, you know it's still better to use armor? Yeah, but I don't,"
"OK, fine, what do you know about the dungeon?"
"Monsters come from there, and it's a very dangerous place, which is why only adventurers and supporters are allowed in there. The tower Babel is built over it to serve as a lid to it, so the monsters don't come spilling over the city."
Eina Tulle was certainly surprised at how much he knew about the dungeon.
"Oh wow, you certainly know your stuff. What floor do you want to go to?"
"Hmm… floor nine seems like a good idea."
Then suddenly the entire guild went silent.
He looked around, "what? Did I say something?"
"Uh, yeah, no fresh adventurers ever go to floor nine, or even past floor five!"
"It doesn't seem like a hard time," he said.
"No, just try to go as far down as you can."
"OK no problem, see you later then, I'll be back around, ehm, Six or Seven tomorrow,"
The guild went quiet again.
"You do realise you would be spending the night there, right?"
"What are you talking about? I'm sort of nocturnal, and I sleep during daylight. In fact I was rudely awoken today, so I should spend the time in the dungeon,"
"Ehm, OK fine, but I don't like it," she said.
"Of course you don't, well, see ya!" He said as he left the building.
"Who was that guy?" Somebody said from behind him.
When Wolf made it to the dungeon, he looked at the first floor.
"Easy," was all he said.
"Why is there a Minotaur on the eleventh floor!?" Wolf shouted to nobody.
He was currently running from the bull creature, until he was caught against a wall.
"Fine, you want to fight, we'll fight," he said to it.
He pulled out his back knife, holding it with the blade facing away from him.
The Wolf waited for the minotaur to make the first move.
It charged, and was met with resistance from the wolf man, though its strength was too much for him.
He moved out of the radius of the horns, which crashed into wall.
Wolf felt a warm liquid fall down his left arm, blood, he thought. It turned out the bull had grazed him.
He not only saw red, but unknown to him, his eyes turned red. The original, calm blue hurricanes were now blood red storms.
He moved out of the arm reach of the minotaur, and prepared his next attack.
But to the surprise of the bull, he ran directly up the monsters back and stabbed his knife into its neck. The bull threw him off of it.
"Ow… that hurt ya know," he said.
He got back up, and pulled out the Elucidator, and it almost fell out.
"Oh right, you damaged my arm, you ass." He switched sword hands, and prepared for a block, but something stopped him. Wolf saw an opening, and took it. He pushed his sword through the opening, and saw it go through the minotaur's hide.
He pulled it out again, but stopped before it left its body, and pushed it back in.
"Why won't you just die!" He shouted frustrated, as he did it again and again. Until, a line shot across the minotaur's body. Blood sprayed all over his body as the minotaur was cut into slabs of meat.
"OK, maybe I should head back now," he said to himself, as the minotaur puffed into black dust.
Ther at his feet was the magic stone, and his knife and sword.
Wolf quickly stood up, and sheathed the two weapons.
"Are you, alright?" It was a woman who said these words, it was none other than the Sword Princess.
"Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine, thank you for saving me, Miss Sword Princess."
"Ais, you OK? Huh, who's the freaking tomato!?" The new person, a werewolf, like Wolf, started to laugh his ass off.
"This tomato, happens to need to get home, so move," Wolf said as he neared the person.
"Bete, don't be mean," the Sword Princess said.
"What did I do?" He asked angrily.
"Move," Wolf said again.
"What will you do if I don't, jackass?" The person supposably named Bete said.
"This. Lupus Forma!" He shouted the spell out.
The werewolf was taken aback.
"So you think that scares me-" he was cut off as Wolf quickly climbed up his body and bit his shoulder.
"Oh you'll pay for tha-" another bit, but in the other shoulder.
"Fine! Just freaking go!" Bete shouted, giving in.
"Forma Humana! That's what I thought," he said, turning to leave, and left.
Bete gritted his teeth.
"Who the hell are you to say that!" He shouted after him, but the other werewolf was already gone.
The werewolf made his way back to the surface, and to the Guild building.
"Can I exchange my magic stones?" Wolf asked the counter people.
"Yeah, sure counter over there," a gruffy man said, as he pointed to the exchange booth.
He walked over there, and dumped his magic stones in the tray.
One hundred, two hundred, three hundred and eighty seven monster killed. Wow, that's a big amount.
"Here you go, one hundred and fifteen thousand, seven hundred and thirty four Valis."
"That's a lot," he muttered as he took the money into a bag, then put the bag into a backpack.
As he made his way to Crescent Palace, he came across six men.
"Are you going to move, or do I have to make you move?" He asked them.
"We're robbin' yeh, so put yer shit into this bag and we'll let yeh go with a slight beatin'" the middle man said.
"Hmm, no thanks, now please move." He asked again.
"No, do it before yer hurt." The man said again.
"Uhh, well I did warn you," before the man could say anything else, he was already pummeled with a fist.
He heard a pair of feet scramble off.
Wolf turned to the man to his right.
"Do you want the same pain?"
All the man did was smile an evil smile.
"Fine,"
He moved his head and grabbed the foot that was being shot at him, and slammed it to the ground, along with the person attached to it.
"Oof, sorry, but I did warn you."
He turned to the man again, but this time, without the polite smile.
The other four men unsheathed blades. Wolf sighed.
"Fine have it your way,"
He unsheathed his twin knives, and looked toward the four men with killing intent.
First one man drove his rapier towards Wolf.
He brought his left knife up, to direct the blade away from him, and brought his right knife into the man's arm, rendering him useless for the fight.
Man two's great sword shone against the pale night.
I'll have to dodge that blade, I don't want to involve- he was broken out of his thoughts as the great sword swung at him. He jumped and rolled to the left.
"Fine. I'll use my sword," with that, he sheathed his knives, and brought out his broadsword.
He blocked the next strike and made a strike of his own.
He cut into man two's side, almost killing him instantly.
Oh great, now I'll be wanted for murder.
He smelled blood. His eyes turned red, and then turned to man three.
With a single swing of his sword he killed the man.
Man four was all that's left. A mage, in the middle of chanting a spell.
Wolf sheathed his sword, and took out one of his knives. I could try it. I haven't and I need to practice with it.
He waited until the mage finished his cast.
An attack spell. Perfect.
He saw the ice come towards him.
He slashed the knife up, with a shout: "Full Counter!"
The spell was reversed back at the mage, with double the power, however the mage survived it, Wolf didn't know, but man four was sent running.
"Now I go home," he mumbled to himself.
Unknown to him, the Sword Princess and her party were watching the fight.
"Do you think he could-"
"No. He's only a level one."
"Seriously!? With that power!?"
"Be quiet, you're going to give away our location."
"Fine,"
When Wolf arrived at the Palace, he was greeted by Artemis, who threw her arms around his neck.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Giving my wolfie a hug!"
"Why? What did I do?" He said.
"You came back. I got worried you wouldn't come back after midnight," she said innocently.
"I'd come back. I'm just nocturnal, so my breakfast will be your dinner, speaking of food, do you have any for me?" He said, not understanding the sexual implications of the hug.
"Yeah I do," she said seductively.
"Gods I'm hungry, do you have meat, bread and lettuce?" He said, still not understanding the sexual implications.
"Huh? Oh yeah, we do inside." Oh wait, crap! I forgot he's thirteen! Dammit! She thought to herself.
They made their way inside, after Artemis stopped hugging him.
"Here's the Mess Hall, it's where we get our food. Right now there are only servants in there, so we'll have to introduce you in the morning. Oh wait! It is the morning! It's almost six a.m.!
He didn't hear her, as he was already in the kitchen, rummaging through the fridges. Here it is! He found some uncooked beef.
Wolf found set a fire and cooked the meat.
After ten minutes of the fire, he put it out, and left the meat there for a minute, to let it cool down.
During this time, he took some bread out of the pantry, cut two slices with his knife, and put the meat on it.
Then he took some lettuce and put it on top of the meat, with another slice of bread on top.
"Done," he murmured.
He took a bite.
"Not bad, not bad, could do with some spice, but not bad!"
He took another bite.
By now, there were dozens of people assembling in the main part of the Mess Hall.
"Hey Wolfie!" Artemis snuck up behind him, and startled him.
He pulled out his knife but stopped himself before he almost killed the goddess.
"Oh sorry, you just scared me," he said as he sheathed his knife.
"Oh it's quite alright. Anyway, do you want to have your status updated?"
"Oh, uh sure."
He gave his knife to Artemis, and pulled up his shirt to his neck.
Artemis inwardly winced at all of his scars.
She let a drop of blood fall.

Artemis nearly died right there.
No one, no one advances this fast. And why is this magic?
Artemis gave the paper with Wolf's status on it.
"Of course the strength is still low."
"How many monsters did you slay down in the dungeon?"
"Around four hundred, or so," he said calmly.
"What!? How?!"
"I don't know?" He sounded unsure, as he didn't know either.
"Anyway, let me introduce you to the rest of the familia!"
She jumped up, and opened the door, unshering him out.
"This is our newest member! Introduce yourself, now!"
"Oh! Hello, I'm Wolf!"
"That's it? No personal details at all?" One asked.
"I've learned to not trust people you don't know the names of."
"At least tell us your race!"
"I'm pretty sure you can see, but I'm a werewolf. There happy?"
"How old are you?" A feminine voice asked.
"Why do I have to answer that?"
"Oh come on! Weee your family now so you better not keep any secrets!" A different female voice said.
"You don't want to know any of my secrets, but fine. I'm thirteen, happy?"
"You're to handsome and tall to be a thirteen year old." A clear as day amazon said.
"Thank you for the compliment but I am thirteen. What other questions do you have?"
"What weapons are you good with?"
"Knife, sword, bow, spear, really just about anything."
"Do we ever get to meet your family?" A male voice said.
Wolf's smile was now one of pain, "I've got a burned down village and three graves I'm not allowed to see."
"I don't understand."
"You shouldn't."
"How long have you been a part of the familia?"
"A day."
"You look two strong to be here for a day,"
"Well that's the truth, take it or leave it,"
The rest of the question refused to answer, as they were too personal and about his past.
Thankfully for him, a person came barreling through the door.
Lady Artemis! There's been a murder!"
"What?"
"It appears to be two people of the Soma Familia!
"Everybody go to your rooms, Wolf come with me,"
"Huh? Wait why?" He asked.
"We're going hunting."
"So you're saying they were murdered? By what?" Wolf was asking, hoping it wasn't the two guys he killed.
"By knifes, Sir-"
"Please don't call me 'sir,' or 'Mr.' Just call me Wolf.
"O-OK,"
"So we need to find this person?"
"Yes,"
"Lady Artemis!" Another person came barreling into the captain's office.
"There were another two murders, done by sword!"
Those two were me.
"Those two were me…"
"What?!" Four heads snapped towards him.
"See, I was heading home from the dungeon, and I came across four six men.
"They tried robbing me of my stuff, but I cut one, another scared off, accidentally killed four and five, and six tried to do magic at me, and I deflected and he ran away. Self defence."
"You're excused for this, but next one, you will be punished.
"Yes Ma'am."
Anyway, we'll need you excellent marksmanship for this capture. Run on the rooftops to find this murderer, armed with your weapons and a bow, you will catch them, OK? No excuses for it. I hope you're ready for being up all night," the first bombarder said.
"Buddy, I'm nocturnal, I'll be up all night." I said.
"By the way, Goddess, where is my room?"
"Yours is next to mine, directly. To left of it, if your staring at it head on."
"Oh OK. I'm going to go to bed, so, see you later." Wolf left the room, and headed up the stairs.
Three lefts then a right. He remembered the directions given to him by the captain.
Three lefts, then a right.
He entered his room, using the key given to him by Rethusa.
The room was like a mini house.
A four room apartment, a main room, a kitchen and table, a bedroom, and a bathroom.
Most of the room was unfurnished, but there was a sofa, and kitchen appliances. There were all bathroom facilities, including a shower. In the bedroom, there was a bed, complete with all sheets, but there was a dog bed in the corner. It looked to be very expensive.
"Oh ha ha, very funny."
He did sleep in his wolf form, but this was to avoid robbing, and so he would be warmed by fur.
Besides the furniture, all rooms had the same wallpaper, plain blue, with a black ceiling. All the rooms in Crescent Palace were like this, as it was a smaller familia, if they needed, they would just add on to the palace, either in floors or in space on the floors.
Wolf placed his backpack on the sofa, took out the bags of money he had, and put those under the bed.
He then took out the pairs of clothes he had and hung them in the closet that was in the bedroom.
Wolf took out the blanket and pillow he used in the wilderness, and put it on the sofa beside his backpack. Those are going back in for when I need to sleep in the dungeon.
