"What... Are ladies and gentlemen of the night? And what's the red light district?"

*Katherine nodded. While she was the exception, surely there would be others like her. Unfortunately, she wasn't sure how many were her age; she was 26 and getting older; hell, __Aldeberto__ was 21, 5 years younger than she was.*

"Soldiers. I'll be sure to avoid those. I've heard stories coming home and being either scarred by war or too emboldened by it. So, there's people like young me out there, huh?"

*Katherine set the now finished cup aside. It had gone by quickly, much more than those lonely nights. What time __was__ it?*
Jodi
"....Can't believe you are THAT innocent." *Sirdan shook his head. Just how sheltered this girl was to know literally nothing about red light district?*

"Ladies and Gentlemen who offer their body for money to sate other's needs. And the red light district is the part of a city where gambling, whoring and any other such immoral activities are concentrated." 

*He nodded at Katherine.* 

"Anyway. I assume you have no interest in the red light district." *He reached for his pouch, putting down the price of both of them's drink.* 

"Drink's on me. It's good to talk to a friend."
Kenneth
"I was on my own since 14. Why would I know what a red light district is???!!!"

*Katherine blinked, then nodded. So __that's__ what it was. Sirdan was absolutely right; she had no interest in that.*

"I didn't even know what a... What one of those were until a lot later. You sure? I really owe you for this."

*Katherine readied her pouch as well, but was unable to do so before Sirdan put down his coin.*
Jodi
"....Well then, guess you've been staying with the right crowd." 

*He paid the bartender, and then stretched himself out.* 

"It's getting late, let's go back home. I think Hu Lang might yell at me... If she's back from work, that is." 

"How about you? I don't know where you live even."
Kenneth
"Probably best to yeah. I live at New Sunlight. I never bought a house, since I was waiting for... Well, you know. So for now I've just been staying in one of their rooms."

*Katherine returned her hand, feeling a bit guilty that Sirdan was taking care of everything. She wanted to contribute, even just a little bit, so she took out a couple coins as a tip to the bartender.*

"I know it's not normal, but I just never found the need for one."
Jodi
"The dormitory at New Sunlight is no place for someone to stay. No privacy. Not enough rooms. Only if you are a poor adventurer down on their luck."

"Rent a house or an apartment nearby that belongs to you. You earn plenty. What is stopping you?"

*Sirdan tilted his head. To him, the income Katherine earn should be on par... So her not having a house was strange.*

"You could probably hire a servant too."
Kenneth
"Nothing is. I can spend in on whatever I want. But I just don't feel like it. Half my life I grew up in a home, but the other half was getting by with what little I had. I was fine with what little I had, and I am now. I had ambitions, but I don't know how to get them."

*Katherine indeed had plenty of money saved up. But she had intended to buy a house when she and Aleksander truly settled down; maybe they would still be working, but they would have a place to stay.*

*The Captain shook her head at the mention of a servant.*

"I don't like the idea. I've done everything myself, and to suddenly relieve that off myself is... Not comfortable."
