"Living like a Married Couple"

Ivory and Sigmund walked by foot to Rubia Town. They passed by the border guards, showing Ivory's enchanted scroll indicating that she was a graduate of Qawiun Academy. They arrived in the busy town around noontime, and the first thing they did was find a house for rent.

The two of them inquired to some merchants in the marketplace, until they were recommended to go to the small community. There was a really cheap cottage, but it was located at the far back of the community, near Rubia Forest. It was an isolated space.

Hearing this, Ivory and Sigmund agreed, wanting to actually be far from other people.  They handed out 100 silver coins to the old woman who owned the small cottage, and she led them there. When they went inside, they realized that it would need a lot of cleaning!

"We also offer cleaning services for 50 silver coins," the old woman said with a grin.
