Introduction
In the world of Ferya there are people of all sorts. There are demons and angels, dwarves, elves, and of course humans. The world is modern with cell phones and high tech cameras and tape recorders. There is no avoiding the development of new things. Buildings are being built from sheet rock and steel beams. Cares zoom down interstates and planes fly through the large fluffy clouds. Mostly only humans inhabit the busy cities, as the other races prefer to stick to "the old times." There are still many parts of the beautiful world with cottages and farms.
In the small town of Mirrim sits a large mansion. The building is three stories high with a bell tower at the very top. it is said that part of the mansion was once a church. Legend says that the mansion was built by some of the first settlers of the town, but that they had passed away due to a famine and now haunt the many halls. The building went many years without an owner, but it has recently been bought by a wealthy family, who plan to put it to good use.
The Saiforro family has purchased the mansion and worked on it for about a year to make it suitable to live in. Every room has been furnished and it is the family's hope that people will move in soon. Anyone who moves into the mansion will be well taken care of. There will be food on the dinner table for every meal, bedding will be washed, floors swept, rooms cleaned, and constant medical care available. The mansion is open to anyone whom may need it, but it is mostly intended for those with some form of mental or physical illness.
On the first floor of the mansion sets a ballroom, office, dining room, kitchen, five bedrooms with connecting bathrooms, infirmary and several storage closets. The second floor is made up completely of bedrooms, each with their own bathroom and balcony. The third floor, which contains the bell tower, is strictly off-limits. No except the Saiforro family may enter this floor, and it is always guarded.
Barlo Mansion is open to beings of any race or species.

He then looked at Jordyn, "We have anything you can possibly think of... along with plenty of sleep aids. Feel free to stop by the infirmary at any time, even late at night if you so wish." It saddened Tarik that this man had to go through something like insomnia.

Alice shivered from the rain, unsure of where she was or what she was doing. All she knew was that she woke up, alone in the woods during some kind of transformation, and needed to find shelter. She knocked on the front door repeatedly, hoping for some kind of response. Her pale skin appeared extra light from her chilled appearance, and her white-blond hair stuck to the sides of her face, drenched with rain.
Upon hearing a knock at the front door he made his way through the crowd of other people and opened the two large doors. There, standing in front of him, was a soaked girl. He frowned, "My goodness, what happened to you?" he asked in horror as he gently pulled her into the building. it was sunny outside, how was she so wet?
Lark took off his heavy green and gold jacket and placed it over her shoulder.

"I...I don't know. I..."
She lost her breath, her lips feeling frozen. All she could remember was waking up and feeling something...strange inside of her. As if she could flicker herself on and off. She shook her head at the thought and took a step back, trying to pull herself together despite her physical condition. "Where am I?"

Lark did not approach her any further. He wanted to avoid frightening her again.

Alice couldn't handle her thoughts taking over her. She had to relax, but she couldn't seem to feel comfortable with a stranger in a room. She didn't even know his name, but like in any social situation, Alice wasn't usually the first to talk, and often felt intimidated, especially by men.

A bit of an abrupt gesture and the sudden serious tone would've made the atmosphere heavy had he not continued walking. "So, any room, right ?" He added at that point, a little cheerier in tone; he didn't wait for an answer though, nor was he wanting one.
Surveying the building and starting to draw a mental map, Jordyn picked a direction at random and began walking. Most definitely he would have to find the kitchen area and pick his room far from there.
Soon enough, however, instead of the kitchen and dining area he came upon the Commons.

Strangely, there were already others there. Was he interrupting something ? A soaked girl and a pale guy. Interesting. Maybe he was.
Well, it truthfully didn't matter if he was interrupting anything.
"Hey there." Jordyn said as means of introduction then plopped himself onto the love-seat (two-seater), shifting his body so that his head rested on one arm-rest and his legs draped off the other. If the girl looked a bit more inviting, he would've sooner opted to rest his head on her lap. She looked a bit muddled, not exactly looking for his kind of company... and wet, can't forget wet.

He looked around for Lark, but the young man was nowhere to be found. Go figure. Tarik let out a heavy sigh and waited about ten more minutes more before abandoning his place at the front door and heading down the hall to the infirmary.

He looked up from his desk and spun his chair around, examining the room. It was a good sized infirmary with several beds and even it's own bathroom. The sheets were clean and spotless, the blankets were thin but still very warm, and curtains hung over the windows. It was a very nice little setup indeed.

"Who are are you?" she asked. Now that she knew that she had been transformed, she didn't want anyone to know what she was, despite the fact that this town was full of supernaturals. For some reason, she wanted to stay attached to her human side.
"What..what are you doing?" she asked, shaking her head and as a result, a stray lock came across the front half of her face.

Then again, she needed help. Desperate help on how to control her power. It could go off like last night at any minute, but who would she ask? She was nowhere near home or someone who would understand, or so she had thought.
Taking a second before answering, he internalized her voice; it wasn't too loud and, to him, it was soft but not too soft - it was reminiscent of the type of voice heard in a lullaby. Her voice wasn't half-bad but having been in the company of trained singers while they sang their greatest song, the grand finale, he knew he'd heard better.
"Jordyn McTosh. You can call me Jordyn." He didn't bother opening his eyes to see who she was talking to but raised his arm so she would identify the voice with him.
At her following question though, Jordyn's eyes fluttered open and he shot her a look that was puzzled with a mild hint of irritation, "I'm...napping." Trying, then, to clear his mind, he shot back, "What're you doing?"
The other male spoke then and Jordyn couldn't help but chuckle to himself at the naivety of that statement and the exchange that followed but said nothing in regards to it. Still though, Tarik was doing him a favour - granting him access to this luxurious mansion so the least he could've done in return was to behave.
"If anyone comes along then boyfriend here will take care of them, am I right ?" Of course, he didn't mean 'boyfriend' in any serious manner but knowing that it would be left up to interpretation was always pleasing.
He then looked at Alice again, "Pardon me, young ma'am... but there are many guards in this mansion that you cannot see... you will be fine..."

"Look," she spat, frustrated with confusion and still feeling quite I'll from the night before. "I... Something happened to me last night and I got lost. Can someone at least give me some new clothes?" She looked down at her white, damp dress. She then turned her eyes to the bitter one. "And no, I do not have a boyfriend." She sighed and looked back down at her dress, her thoughts running wild and her heart beating, causing her face to blush in response to his remark.
