Kendra followed the officer through city.In this world there are horses and donkeys and carriages.But she didn't had any and neither did he.So they walked.The city seemed to be quite big.The market place seemed to be just on one corner of the city where it didn't disturb rest of it.
In beginning Kendra taught market is in mid city but it actually seemed to be in outer city.As the officer explained her, there are four gates of the city.Main gate,outer city gate,inner city gate and nobles circle.As he knew that she didn't had much money, he took her to other side of outer city.
It was quite far from main gate but this way somewhat safer.He walked up the tree story house and on the third floor was attic apartment,in this case somewhat like loft.When they came in Kendra almost didn't turn around and run away.
The roof leaked,there are mice everywhere and the flying rats(pigeons) were pooping everywhere.It was not even house it was mess.When officer saw the mess on the attic he wrote it down and went down to the owner of the house.
''What is going on?''He yelled at the fat man that almost chocked on his chicken leg.''You want to sell it?Sell it yourself.I will report the condition of your house.If you don't clean that mess you will pay the fine.Do you understand?''he yelled while looking at stunned man.He was so angry.
In this city there are sanitary laws because there are so many weird sicknesses in other citys, so the city Lord made decision that there is no dirt, rats or birds inside the city.If someone choose to have his own land and grow animals they can do it outside.While telling all that to Kendra he got really upset.He works for city already 15 years and this is first time to see such condition of the house.
Kendra understood that and even tho she was at first upset now she understood that this is not common.
''I do not understand.He lives here ,he should know.The city sanitary laws are quite extreme. This kind of place can cause us getting one of those sicknesses that other city's have.Not even dwellings are dirty.How disgusting.''he said while being furious.
Indeed the dwellings across the main gate seemed to really be quite clean.It seems that the law and order that are in city were take outside as well.
''Do not worry.There will be such things.But,is it possible for me to find place further away from this house.I really hate rats.''she said while shuddering.It will be hard for the house owner to get rid of the rats.And that attic...Her house is hundred times cleaner.
''I have idea in my mind.No more apartments.I will show you house of someone I knew.Friend of mine got married and they went to another city.His wife and parents lived in this house and as they left all together they are selling the house. Its not big but for two of you is perfect.''he said while remembering the house.''Why did I even show them that place?This one is so perfect for this child.''
They walked for a while and they saw rows of streets with smaller houses with tiny gardens. Kendra's eyes shone.It was just what she was looking for.
He turned to one of the streets and went all the way to the end.When they got closer she saw perfect little house.there were rows of houses from every side but this one was somewhat in corner of the castle.The street was straight passing her but there were no other houses near it.It was like the way was as well border between that house an other houses.
''There is only two houses like this in whole castle.And this one is on sunny side.In winter it wont be to cold and in summer you can sit outside.There are trees and a garden.''he said while walking slowly to the house.
From far away it seemed small but when they arrived they saw that house is made from bricks and it was not that small. In front house there was apple tree and on sides you could see cherries ,pears and by the wall even grapes.Everything had tall fence so we had to go in.
There were still two older people sitting in front house and chatting.When they saw them coming they stood up and opened gate with smile.
''I brought buyers for the house.''He said while looking at astonished faces of the older pair.
''Parents?''asked older man as he looked around.
''No parents but they have enough money to buy house so I wanted to recommend your.I planed them to stay in loft in eleventh street bit it was horrible.''he said with face of disgust.
''We wanted to report him once because we saw him multiple times pissing at the wall gates.But he threatened us and we are just old people.But now we are leaving and we don't care.''said old man while looking at children with compassion.
''You two want to buy house?''he asked while he looked at them.
''Yes sir.Officer told me the price is 20 coins.Is it possible to give us some discount.Even if I have money I would like to safe some .''she said while looking with big eyes at him. Isaa saw her expression and mimicked it.The two elders were beaten.
''Even if you didn't ask I would have given it cheaper.My son-in-law has no parents so he will take us with him.He got job in main city as kings guard.He bought himself big house and we all will live there.This house is something he helped us built so you can be sure that its safe place.But there is something only few people know as well city elders and the Lord of the city.We have own well here.So in case if there was lock out the city and city's wells would get dirty or poisoned this well is last option.Don't tell anyone.WE are actually keepers of well''
He walked to hidden corner of place and opened gate in the wall.He told Isaa to stay outside while taking Kendra downstairs. after taking about 30 something steps on circular staircase they already saw water.It was deep well that had huge dimensions.It seemed that whole house and garden and part of the streets are over that place.
''Be careful while u take water.This place goes very deep.When this place was built the made such wells all over the city.Mt grandfather was at that time just little boy.There were many wars and famine so this place is build in case of lock down of the city these wells were source of water for months.But not many know about these.If he brought you here that means he trust you.It is for defense so be careful and don;t tell anyone.''
''Are there any fishes inside?''
''City lord planed to plant some fishes but river is dirty and the he gave up the idea.The fishes would bee great in case of hunger.Sigh.''he shook his head .
''I know hoe to do it grandfather.''she said to him looking seriously.''There is place outside city that I can find fishes.Ill just gather smaller fishes and bring them here to grow up.What do you think?''
''That is great idea child.I know the Lord's main servant I will tell him about your idea.As peasant you can't meet the Lord is that fine with you if someone else send message.'' he asked with caution in his eyes.After all many generations of his family still lives inside and outside city.they are all loyal to the Lord.
''Of course.I am after all a child,an orphan and have no achievements.It is fine with me;;then she got closer to him''Accept that it would be scary for us to do see him.The pressure....It is indeed better this way.''she said while looking all scared.
Kendra had no intention getting involved in city politics.As long if possible she want to be far away from politicians.In past life she had to meet them and it was horrible experience.She knew no mater what age,city,world or dimension is politicians are politicians.
He saw earnest wish not to get involved and had sigh of relief.The nobles are seriously disgusting him.He is loyal to the lord but when he sees nobles he wants to kill them.He heard stories that some nobles like to kidnap little children and do horrible things to them.This place is far from nobles and hidden.These children will be safe.
They went out.On the door Isaa was standing anxiously and when she saw Kendra coming out she started crying.She run into the hands of Kendra almost knocking her down.
''Brother you promised you wont let me be alone again...buaaaaahhahh.''She started bawling.
She clung on to Kendra and didn't want to let go.''Why did you leave for so long .Ahhhh...'''She just couldn't stop lamenting and crying.She got used that Kendra is with her all the time.She was afraid to be left alone again.''
Kendra sighed.She need to do some pep talk to her.If she don't resolve this early it will be big problem in future.She let her cry and hugged her.Then she turned to elders and officer.
''I am really sorry.''She said while shocked expressions.''Few days ago we got attacked by bad man.Since then she didn't want to be away from me.Please forgive her.She is just small child.''
Officer and the pair looked at each other and with understanding smiled at her.They are after all just small children.Even tho brother seems to be mature for his age.They smiled in sympathy.
She put Isaa down and looked at her strictly and seriously.''I was just short time away.Stop being small baby.You already know how to cook and hunt.What other children know that.Just my sister.My sister is best.She is little but strong and valiant. Hmph. I will be stronger and stronger with time.You need to strong as well.Understand?''She spoke while boosting Isaa's morale.
Isaa stopped crying and looked at her with big shiny eyes.Se nodded hear head and was full of pride because Kendra's words.''Yes I am your sister and I will become strong.I will not cry anymore.I know now brother will always come back.''
''So is it.Wherever I may go I will find you if you get lost or we get separated.Is that fine?''Kendra said while wiping her tears and snot with little handkerchief she made for Isaa.''How can you be so ugly when you cry.I like my sister being happy and pretty.''She said while pulling on her cheeks and teasing her. Isaa's eyes were still red from crying but she already had smile on her face.
They got used to be alone so they forgot the three people next to them.Kendra looked apologetically at them and saw they all wiped their tears away.Does she need to take care of them as well?Sigh.How can she comfort older people.Its easy with Isaa but them... Sigh...
''Sorry about this.Lets talk about price.''she said while taking out the purse.they saw determination in her eyes.
''It was planed 20 we planed to give it to you for 15 but you asked for discount so we will sell it all with land and everything in house for 12 small silver coins.''said the old man.he almost gave it for free but he saw the serious eyes of the child and taught that child would be offended if does that.
Little did he know Kendra would be happy for free house but at least it was much cheaper as she taught.They signed contract as the officer already had it with him.They planed to leave for the main city in ten days so she told them to stay there.
Kendra anyway planed to go to the sea and gather some salt and play around.She saw small garden and taught about those two rabbits they had.She asked them if they could watch them till they came back.They said they will so Isaa was happy and Kendra sighed with relief.
The old people saw that their bags are empty as Kendra didn't buy anything this time.They put in small bag some grapes and in big bag some carrots,beets ,fresh onion,garlic and a fresh eggplants.
When Kendra saw eggplants she got so happy.She saw that they were planted in small garden.and that means whole summer they could have eggplants to eat.She already planed to dry some it and have it for winter.Its good when making porridge.Even if you don't have meat.
Elders were so happy about her liking the vegetables.They actually planed to pull out vegetables if the owner didn't like it and replant it at their family stead.But this way is most useful.
Kendra said her goodbyes and left with Isaa happily.Now they have some security and there i still so much money left.She looked at the officer and asked him for tax as well.He told her they don't pay tax for that house as they are watchers.Kendra was happy about that.One less thing to pay.
She planned to gather a lot money so she and Isaa could go traveling.But for now they have their own land with basic house and city house.They were quite wealthy when she taught about it.She looked at streets that were cleaner than in her world.She looked at children playing around and knew that Isaa will have friends to play with.They are really lucky..

Sigh...''Sorry about this.Lets talk about price.''she said while taking out the purse.they saw determination in her eyes.''It was planed 20 we planed to give it to you for 15 but you asked for discount so we will sell it all with land and everything in house for 12 small silver coins.''said the old man.he almost gave it for free but he saw the serious eyes of the child and taught that child would be offended if does that.Little did he know Kendra would be happy for free house but at least it was much cheaper as she taught.They signed contract as the officer already had it with him.They planed to leave for the main city in ten days so she told them to stay there.Kendra anyway planed to go to the sea and gather some salt and play around.She saw small garden and taught about those two rabbits they had.She asked them if they could watch them till they came back.They said they will so Isaa was happy and Kendra sighed with relief.The old people saw that their bags are empty as Kendra didn't buy anything this time.They put in small bag some grapes and in big bag some carrots,beets ,fresh onion,garlic and a fresh eggplants.When Kendra saw eggplants she got so happy.She saw that they were planted in small garden.and that means whole summer they could have eggplants to eat.She already planed to dry some it and have it for winter.Its good when making porridge.Even if you don't have meat.Elders were so happy about her liking the vegetables.They actually planed to pull out vegetables if the owner didn't like it and replant it at their family stead.But this way is most useful.Kendra said her goodbyes and left with Isaa happily.Now they have some security and there i still so much money left.She looked at the officer and asked him for tax as well.He told her they don't pay tax for that house as they are watchers.Kendra was happy about that.One less thing to pay.She planned to gather a lot money so she and Isaa could go traveling.But for now they have their own land with basic house and city house.They were quite wealthy when she taught about it.She looked at streets that were cleaner than in her world.She looked at children playing around and knew that Isaa will have friends to play with.They are really lucky..
