She smiled shyly at him. The thought of ghosts or something else similarly scary lurking in her new house definitely turned her off to the idea of even going there again. But, she'd already agreed to buy it, and she couldn't turn her back now. With a sigh, she turned and went over to the window.

The process was just as easy as the Mayor had said it was. Handing over the bits and a few signatures later, the deed was hers. It was a good thing her parents had given her a decent amount of money as a gift of good will and good luck when she decided to leave. She already couldn't wait to see them again.

After levitating the scroll into one of her saddlebags, she turned back to Serilus with a nervous smile. "Okay... I have the deed... shall we?..." Her voice quivered hesitantly. Whether she decided to admit it now or not, Serilus' bravery did make her feel a little better.
