The room the group crawls down into is approximately ten feet by ten feet. The room is encircled with a golden line, 15 sets of palm prints line the wall. On the north wall, near the door is a carved relief of a rather plain woman, eyes downcast and lips pursed. The rest of the room reminds you of an entrance foyer in a temple. There are no doors leading south, as if there is normally not a way in here. The ladder is obviously a recent build by the Sahuagin.
Rabbit walks to the corner side of the room opposite the door. Unloading her pack she holds and examines a small wooden building, about the size of the palm of her hand. After looking over it she delicately grabs a ribbon that was hard to notice and pulls, there is a small crack sound and she sets the small model down in the corner. There is a flicker and a full size door and part of a stone cabin seems to jut out of the southern wall. A small window people out from the part of the cabin that extends out of the wall. She quickly opens the door revealing a floor that is level, clean, and dry. In all respects the lodging resembles internally a normal cottage, with a sturdy door, two shuttered windows, and a small fireplace.
The shelter has both a heating and cooling source. The dwelling provides security —it is as strong as a normal stone building. The dwelling resists flames and fire as if it were stone. It is impervious to normal missiles (but not the sort cast by siege engines or giants).
The door, shutters, and even chimney are secure against intrusion, the former two being arcane lock and the latter secured by an iron grate at the top and a narrow flue. In addition, these three areas are protected by an alarm spell. Finally, an unseen servant is conjured to provide service to you for the duration of the shelter.
The secure shelter contains rude furnishings —eight bunks, a trestle table, eight stools, and a writing desk.
Rabbit steps back and smiles at her family standing there, with a hand she motions to the door. "Would you like to come in?"

Key watches as Rabbit sets up the little cabin and brings it to life. She smiles at her sister and enters the dwelling and sits down at the table.
“This is amazing. Can it be used as often as is needed?”

Rabbit shakes her head as she steps into the room, taking her pack off and scanning the area. "No, these are one shot. If we are gone more than a score of hours it will disappear. You can't put it back in its statue like the animals."

Key stops rummaging in her bag and looks to Rabbit.
“That’s to bad. This is quite handy.” She looks around at everyone settling in.
“I have a few questions for you. First, if I had some armor with my crest on it would you wear it? Just while we were in Arborlon. I thought that if you had something that told people you were conducting business on my behalf you might get less flack. I also found out recently that there is special coin that you can use that will make it so vendors can’t turn you away.”

Rabbit settles down on the bench, pulling her leather and chain top off her, leaving her hair stuck up and around her, damp with sweat. She pulls out her first long blade and a wet stone. She looks up at Key when she finishes. "I would be proud to wear your symbol, but it would make my job harder. I am your left hand, wouldn't go over well announcing who I was with when I was doing it would it? If you decide you want to give it to me though, I would happily wear it."
She looks over at Anglerond who is building a fire, "As for the coins, I think right now that would be more likely to get my ass beat for stealing it. Although I wouldn't turn it down. It could definitely come in handy." She gives Key a large smile.

Keys eyebrows draw together in thought.
“Good points, both of them. It just bothered me the way the food vendors treated you. As for the coins. I’ll get you some when I see Nestrim again. Would it help if I gave you a letter to carry? One that said that you are on an errand for me?”

Rabbit looks up from her left blade, the wet stone stopping. "That would be great, as long as you are ok that I don't carry it when I am doing your bidding as your left hand. I wouldn't ever want to incriminate you in something"
The sound of wet stone on metal starts up again as she adds some oil to the blade, a slight look of frustration. "I am sorry Key, with my newfound relationship." She looks over and her face lights up and softens as she sees Luke, "I forgot to take you to the Duergar tattoo shop. We need to get a small set, me and you for the handmaiden position. I am very sorry I was distracted." She turns back to the blade and her face darkens and smile leaves as her work face comes back and she focuses on the blade.

Key seems to relax.
“There is nothing to be sorry for. Im happy for the two of you. You should never apologize for doing the things that make you happy.” She reaches in to her bag and pulls out paper, quill and ink. She’s quiet for a moment while she begins to write. After a minute or two she looks up.
“What will the tattoos look like? Will they do anything? I need to go anyway, I need to see about changing my dragon tattoo.”

Rabbit looks up as she shifts to her second blade, a smile appears when she sees her sister's face. "The tattoo can be anything you want, you are the queen after all"
She chuckles to herself. "They can remove or alter your original tattoo. Do you want it gone, or want something different." She looks down and then back up, in a quiet whisper, "I feel uncomfortable with my skin being naked, I was thinking about getting more tattoos in general." She peeks over at Luke, "Do you think he will be mad, he seemed so happy to see my skin bare."

She runs fingers over the edge of the tattoo on one of her arms.
“I’d like to keep it. It just needs to be altered a bit so it doesn’t resemble the orders tattoo as much.” She sets her quill down and focuses on her sister.
“Luke was happy that we were able to sever your ties to your old goddess. I don’t think he cares if you cover yourself in tattoos again.”

Rabbit shrugs. "I think he may not be keen since he is worried my other tattoos may start coming back and he won’t be able to see easily.”
Her gaze drifts absentmindedly back towards Luke, causing her to drop her wet stone. Red faced she leans over and picks it up and smiles at Key. "I am going to have to work on this.”

Key chuckles and smiles broadly at Rabbit.
“It will be better after the newness wears off. Its been what, several hundred years at least since your last relationship. And on top of it it’s the first one that your can express openly. Or this could be thevway it is the whole time your together.” She leans over and pokes her teasingly.

Rabbit leans in close to Key. "I worry I push him too fast, then I worry it isn’t fast enough. Then I wonder if maybe he likes Nestrim better.”
Her gaze drifts away from Key and towards Luke, confusion, need, want and even fear flit across her normally quiet face. "Having his arms wrapped around me is the only time I don’t hear the music or the voices and singing. I know my people are different then yours, normally emotion isn’t part of our relationship except when it is it’s like fire to elven ice. I’m not hurting him by being with him am I?.”

Key wraps an arm around her.
“Your not hurting him. It sounds like you need to just stop thinking and enjoy. As long as you guys are communicating everything will work out. If Luke is uncomfortable in any way he will let you know.” She kisses her forehead.

Rabbit chuckles and rubs her face in an unusual gesture against Key’s cheek. "I am high maintenance but I do realize you are right and I should enjoy myself.”
She looks over at Anglerond. "How is that situation. You both look very happy. Is he going to be ok adventuring with us or is this hard on him?”
