*The guard would be inside the estate he had sat down quietly in the courtyard he placed his hands over his face sighing he had found some people that would be loyal to them he had spent a large amount of time in krunaden capital, he had hired over 100 guards mainly those he took off the streets that were homeless and gave them a home in return there service to protect the estate and act as maids to help upkeep it. He provided them with the training in fighting and cleaning now he didn't know what to do.*
Kasey
*Makimi strolled into the courtyard, and she noticed her guard looking somber, so she placed a hand on his shoulder.*

`"Hey. Is something bothering you, my friend?"`
Curtis
`"Oh! It's just... Now that were here I don't know what to do... I recruited a lot of people here to help protect your family with the gold we had the estate you wanted me to find here it's a fortress. I don't know if I'm still going to be of any use to you..."`
Kasey
`"You have no reason to worry about that. I have more than enough servants. All I really need is a friend. Is that a job you would be suited for?"`
Curtis
`"Since our journey started I have been nothing but a burden to you my lady trying to protect you but you say I was acting to hasty. If you think I could be a good friend I'll be your friend. However I took an oath to be a red guard, I can't be relieved of duty until a superior relieves me of service it is our culture..."`
Kasey
`"I am a renowned woman of nobility, am I not? My house is one of great privilege and high status. Only the royal family is above me. Therefore, I give you a choice: live a life of war, and guard this manor until you grow old, or live a life of peace, and reside in this manor as an honored guest. Either way, you will be considered useful to me."`
Curtis
*The guard stands slowly up from his seat as he slowly placed his hand across his chest as he tightened his fist.*

`"Do you relieve me of my duty Makimi of house bazin?"`
Kasey
*She smiled warmly at him before giving a simple nod.*

`"If that is what you wish, then yes. You are free to retire your sword."`
Curtis
*Kneels down and draws his sword offering it to her as he lowers his head to her*
Adam
*The Ghost in his quest to go stronger still kept an eye on Makimi. After discovering her supposed estate he would prowl the area and search for suitable targets in order to gain strength and knowledge.*
Kasey
*Makimi gently took the sword out of his hands, then placed it and its sheath inside an ornate wooden box with a glass lid. She then turned to him and lifted his chin so that he was looking up at her.*

`"Welcome to your new life as a man of peace."`
Curtis
*He sighs softly as he slowly stands up and hugs her softly as he wrapped his arms around her.*

`"Thank you friend."`
Kasey
*She hugged him back, then pulled away, smiling warmly.*

`"So, what will you do with your new life? You could learn a new skill, or take up a new hobby."`
Curtis
`"I guess I will just spend my time training the guards, and being a good friend to you."`

*He smiles softly under his helm*

`"Do you need me to do anything? I don't know much about hobbies."`
Kasey
*She laughed out loud at this.*

`"Follow me. There is something I want to show you."`
Curtis
*Stood up and began to follow her he kept his helmet on for now as he walked beside her*

`"What have you been up in the past few weeks I have heard some disturbing news at least from this nation."`
Kasey
*Makimi led him through the mansion, which was large and beautifully decorated both inside and out. She was unsure of how much of her personal life she was willing to share, but gave a few small details.*

`"Well, I have recently found a new sparring partner. He designs knives for a living, and was kind enough to bestow a few onto me as gifts."`
Adam
*The Ghost would stick to the upper levels of the mansion's structure as it provided him vantage points and no one would think to look up.*
Curtis
*The guard walked with her quietly as he tilted his head as she spoke.*

`"Well I'm glad you found someone to sparr with maybe you should settle down and find someone your always so dense so... Is he a possible match?"`

*He teased as he gently nudges her*
Kasey
*She giggled at this and nudged him back, seeming embarrassed by his remarks.*

`"I am not sure. I do not know him well enough to say for certain yet. He does strike me as a lonely person, though it would take a miracle to get him to open up about his feelings. An interesting man, but a suitor? Who knows?"`
Curtis
*He grabs her close and teased her more.*

`"Awe don't be so gloomy about it with time I'm sure he will open to you."`

*He gently rubs her head before pulling away he kept following her.*

`"I was thinking about going on an adventure to explore the world sooner or later."`
Kasey
*She smiled and nodded, leading him on as they chatted casually.*

`"I would like that. Our new dimension holds so many mysteries just waiting to be uncovered..."`
