Charak looked down at the piece of paper in his hand with Carnine's address. "Yes, it is." As he led the dorin up a set of stairs and down a hallway, he continued, "This is rather nice, I must say, as far as the city's residences go. Some people have to live right next to the market, and the noise is unbearable." Carnine's building was removed enough from the apartment that there wasn't must noise that wasn't normal, but if he ever desired, he could easily visit the stalls in a few minutes.
Charak picked up a small envelope in front of the first door on the left. Inside was the deed to the apartment and the key to the door. Charak opened the door, handed the key to Carnine, and pushed the door open.
The apartment was small, but clean and cozy-looking. There was a woven gold and red rug on the wooden floor. The single room was furnished with a simple bed, a desk and chair, a wardrobe, and a set of drawers. The window opened onto a sunny view of the street and the sands beyond the city boundaries. If Carnine looked down the hall, he would see a public bathing area that was very well-kept.
"You can find homeware at one of the bazaar's stalls," Charak told him. "And you should be able to sort out any problems with the landlord." The man's contact information was on another piece of paper inside the envelope. "Anything else I can help you with, sir?"
