*Darien nods, and they bow themselves out. Darien already has a small plan formulated, but it will take a few days of careful watching...*

*The Raeburn Estate is larger and in better condition than its' beleaugered neighbor. The Manor house is three stories high with tall narrow windows on the first two floors. They are draped with rich bright curtains, but look too new to give the house a homey feel. The high-steepled roofs and lawns are both immaculate, and a well-trimmed hedge maze peeks out from behind the building. The third floor windows are smaller, dormitories and leaded. There are no curtains in these, but they look just as new.

Darien adjusts his uniform again, and they begin the short hike to the heavily-columned wrap-around porch. A bronzed plaque beside the lightly-gilded doors reads *~Raeburn~*. From inside the house, the sounds of lute and harp can be heard. Standing more erect than usual, Darien knocks loudly and waits for a doorman.*
