[ModNote: Continued from The Watcher's Challenge.] *Phinehas walks in, and stops at the threshhold. He raises his head and sniffs the air.* Hmmm... I smell filth, probably from that urchin I just saw leave the place, and...*sniff sniff* innocence.... Yes, this place is covered in innocence.*He walks to a corner of the shop and pretends something has caught his eye, all the while listening in on the conversation behind him.*

*Watching both customer's Catherine smiles. So far it had been a good day. Despite the racket from outside.*
*To herself.* I hope that doesn't come in here..
*Placing the shoes under the counter to clean up later she then get's some more sweet smelling scent in the shop. It had waned considerably due to the shoe sales man.*

"Well miss, as to how I thought you had accomodation, the answer to that is myself and my travelling partner have tried everywhere else in Wolfenden and as this is a new shop we might as well try. As for the bed setting up then, despite my rather spiffy appearance then I am rather more used to 'roughing it' than I would like to be. I will provide my own food also, a week should be long enough, however I would be most pleased to stay as long as your able to accomodate me. Now, shall we arrange a fee?"

Well seen as you have no bed and will be providing your own food...how does ten gold pieces for the week sound and if you stay longer then we can arrange more payment then.
I'm assuming it'sll only be you staying...or is there a Mrs...I don't even know your name. What is your name?
*Hold's out her hand.*
I'm Catherine Barter.

*Walter offers a firm handshake*
"My name Miss Barter is Walter, that's what everyone I know calls me. As for a wife then she isn't around here, my travelling partner is a mercenary bodyguard. 10 gold pieces sounds most reasonable."
*Without hesitation he takes out 10 gold pieces and hands them to her.*
"May I see the room so I am aware how big it is and how many sheets I will need to aquire?"

*Placing the money in her pocket Catherine point's upstairs that are blocked off by a closed door.*
Yes sure go ahead. You'll have to mind the mess though I only arrived last night and most of the packing is unfinished. Your room is the one to the left of the bathroom..

*Catherine smile's at Mr Brinkatore.*
It is a lovely day indeed. The noise and chaos outside is getting a bit much but as long as they keep out of here I'm not too fussed. I wonder what it's about though. The last I looked there was a man arranging rocks in a circle. It's nice to see you again, Didn't expect to see you so soon after all it was very late last night when you left.
Which reminds me I owe you a apology for being so rude as you left but I was absolutly exhausted and needed my bed.Sorry.

"No need to appolagise Catherine I fully understand about last night I assure you."
"And how could I be mad at such a Buteifuuly young lady?"
