The old wood of the door was cracked and worn. The door was open, leather hinges having all but rotted away. He gave a ginger tap-tap-tap on the doorframe, and called out.
"Hello? Is anybuddy here?" He squinted into the darkness, and scrunched his nose at the pungent swamp-smell that followed him as he walked inside. |

I don't care about the code, I'm glad the code is in place to provide such a service as this to people who enjoy it. I was upset about my own forgetfulness. Despite this, an amendment to the code would be more user-friendly.

When His eyes adjusted, he saw that there was a dusty window lighting half the room. What sunlight came throughthe glass, glinted on dust motes filterng down from the roof. The house was a small affair with a thatch roof and an unlit fireplace taking up most of a wall.
In an old wooden rocking chair sat a woman. She smiled warmly at Theon.
"And why have you come to see me today, little master? Hmm?" She seemed nice, so Theon smiled back at her.
"My momma,"he said, "she sent me to get a healer."
