Sun Devils

The Tali Estate was nothing like Nix had imagined. It was a gray stone structure that spanned what would normally be four or five city blocks. Inside the compound were several courtyards.

/Qi Family: Nix: Why have a courtyard when it's so damn cold? Do they come out here to freeze together?

/Qi Family: Cora: Bonfires Nix, it's a nightly thing here in Fraya'Selene.

Nix shook his head slightly but placated the young ranger with a smile. "Takes all sorts. I prefer Haven."

/Qi Family: Sasi: I like Haven too. Can I come live in your house?

/Qi Family: Nix: We don't have any rats.

/Qi Family: Sasi: None? Not even one? Never mind.

Cora led them up a half flight of stairs that stopped at the largest set of house doors Nix had ever seen. To his surprise, it glowed and then opened when Cora touched it. The doors opened into a large entryway at the base of a grand staircase. The warmth of the room was a welcome surprise.

/Qi Family: Nix: The doors are enchanted?
