An eye for an eye

[+Sorana]

The house wasn't large for a well-situated merchants home, but it wasn't small either. It was mediumsized and like the other houses around it was relatively new. Locaded in a part of the Alleycity, that was only partially destroyed, it still had to be rebuildt almost from scratch. Around the house was a small strip of green, mostly gras and some bushes to keep the workload low.

When the sun set this day, the neighbours were talking quietly among themselves. Stranger had been seen approaching the house and leaving again. The young miss had come back and also left again. Thankfully the strange Raven had sometimes flown away, leaving the house behind dark and uncomfortable.

For the next few days it had been quiet, some merchants wanted to deliver goods, but nobody had opened. The neighbours talked some more, discussed the notion if they should take a look behind the wall. They decided to walk over and knock at the door again, and again nobody opened. This silence resulted in some strange gossip, somebody even claimed to have seen a large, flying ship. Others dismissed this as a pure phantsam. But they all agreed, that something was off.

And then new people arrived. They opened the door and greeted the neighbours, some of the already well-known servants came back. The new people offered a more or less useful explanation, something about an illness and the young miss unwilling and unable to take over the business. Then they moved in and after a few weeks everything returend to normality. The new owners were nice couple and they regularly invited someone to come buy and have dinner together. Some claimed, to have seen strange movement at night, people with long cloaks and hoods arriving at the house and leaving soon afterwards, but they all closed their eyes. The new owners were nice people, what happened inside their walls, was their private affair.

Should anybody want to use the house as a location sometime, feel free. I can of course offer more information about those that live there now.
