As you walk in you notice a note left on the tape player. With a sigh he reaches out and crumples it. At your curious look he shakes his head and smiles.

A joke from my best friend that you just met... My friend Chase may like being a verb, but I�m not as partial to it... Well you get what you ask for, I suppose.

The man shrugs, then smiles and indicates you should step farther into the room.

Come on in and sit down I was just about to turn on some of my music and sit down with a book and just relax. Please, join me!

You walk in and the man quietly nods for you to look around while he picks up a book titled Chronicles of Pern and begins to read.

The first thing you see is the bed, placed just inches away from where the door can hit it when opened. The bed is half made, sheets pulled up to meet the pillow with one corner pulled back. The sheets are white with brown vines twining over them and small purple flowers growing from the vines.

Beyond the bed the window is open letting in a salty sea breeze. The breeze brings another smell, the smell of faint smoke. On the windowsill is a cone of burning incense set on a large metal coin. The package it came from sits on the floor and a little to the left and has "Rain" written on it.

Seashells line the floor along the wall under the window. All very large versions and surprisingly intact. In one place they make a frame around a poem.

On one wall you see a beautiful banner of sea dragons. Beneath it is a small bookshelf containing pictures. You somehow hear the smile on the man�s face.

Those are all pictures of some of my friends... I moved here about the same time as Seelly and Julie, and just a bit after Derg and Zoy. Kinda funny how we seem to come in twos. Derg and Zoy were the first to move in with Adrienne, then I joined with Seelly. She immediately got Julie to move in, while I went to get Land. I can't believe we all fit under one roof.. And we keep growing!

You decide to let him finish his book and thank him for his hospitality.

Visitors are always welcome here, come back when you have the chance. You'll meet the one responsible for this place if you go left. Beware though, she's in a "creative" mood.
