Nestled among the trees stands the cottage they would call home.
After discussing the need for finding a new house, Ark, or Reaper as most tend to call him, goes house hunting. He approaches the cottage and looks about, seeing an "Open House" sign in the front yard. Coming up the walk, he begins to tour the house taking in all the details. Meanwhile, a Real Estate Agent quietly waits for any questions.
The yard holds many trees of varying types, including a few pine and oak trees with huge branches which provide ample shade in the front. The trees thin out in the back to allow the sun to shine on the house during the morning as the front faces West. The fence is built with wood-rails and encompasses the property. A small flower garden occupies the north-east corner, with several other small flower beds surrounding the house. The cottage itself is made of a white-gray stone with a tan-tiled roof and tan shutters frame the windows. A huge bay window with a sliding glass door dominates the center of the back wall.
The entry way is small with a cloak closet and a short hallway to the main room. Unfurnished, the main room holds a large fireplace with an oak mantle. Easily large enough to hold several chairs and a table while still leaving space for dancing. The bay window is set in the east wall, the fireplace in the south. An archway just east of the fireplace leads into the dining room. Small globes which will emanate light on command are set in the corners and another hangs suspended from the center of the ceiling. A second arch leads from this room to the kitchen. A door at the far end leads to an area designed for servants, fitting three comfortably.
