The trio blinked in unison at the sheer number of gifts stacked behind the carriage. Serin's mouth fell open slightly. "I… I didn't expect this many…"
Vanadis let out a low whistle, shaking his head. "Looks like Master didn't just bring back a few trinkets. This is… a small fortune."
Odysseus tilted his head, one eyebrow raised, though a small, amused smile tugged at his lips. "Master certainly has a way of complicating things. Still, I suppose it's better than arriving empty-handed."

Meical chuckled as they entered inside the house.
There, there was line of workers, in bows. In unison they started.
"We are all relieved to have you back with us Madame, and are glad you had a safe return.."
Narelle stepped out with a smile "Master, madame, I'm glad you're back. I'll have you know, Odysseuss and I, worked together to make sure the estate ran smoothly. We had no issues.."
Meical nodded "Thank you, it's always a relief to have you around.."
