Henry, you are able to steel yourself against the wailing, however when you look to Skylar you will see her mascara running and tears beginning to fall down her face.

Henry will sneer slightly at Skylar's visible sign of weakness.  

"Pull yourself together, or go back to the car.  I will not have you in this state now."

Skylar does her best to pull herself together, but would rather take the ire of her Master than make her Master look bad in front of a new person of interest.  She will hand Henry the box with the ring in it and retreat to the car with Pua.  Henry puts the small box in his pocket and pushes his disdain for Skylar's outburst to the back of his mind.  He takes a polite step back so as to not crowd the doorway once the resident or his/her servant opens it.

A soft feminine voice will speak from the other side of the door.
"It is impolite to linger at the threshold, either intrude or leave."
The voice is soft and far sweeter than you would expect to hear.

Henry will gently open the door and step inside.  Making sure to identify the source of the woman's voice as soon as possible.  He'll also take a quick assessment of the inside.

Inside is a fairly run down and well lived in. There is a small kitchen to your right with a sink, a wood burner, and a saucepan your certain was popular in the 50's. There is a small cot in the back corner with tattered blankets on it, and a study table to the left of you. In the back left corner is a woman of about 25 years. She still wears a few garments and appears to be breathing, but she hangs from a pair of old shackles run over the roof support beam. Pieces of her flesh have been systematically carved away and only a few places have been bandaged. She does not appear conscience at the moment.

In the center of the room is the woman who spoke. She's sitting in a rocking chair with a book from the public library in her lap. She seems average in appearance and wears basic hiking clothing.

There are a few strange objects on some of the surfaces, newspapers where there should be windows, and several scratches in the wood which appear mystical.

Henry will quickly assess the viability of the specimen hanging from the shackles.
