~watches the movers place the last of her personal belongings onto the cart and drive away from the school in the direction of the palace. She sighs softly as she heads back to her office, wincing at the sound of the cart hitting a rut in the road. She dreads the thought of moving into the palace after living here at the bustling mage school, but now that Rensain had taken over, she can't think of any reason to stay. Well, maybe one reason, but she doubts she'd be able to keep an eye on his doings even under the same roof if he decided he didn't want her to know.

She moves through the halls ans steps into her office, looking around to make sure she got the last of her things. Shaking her head, she goes through the drawers of the desk and pulls out the rest of her paperwork, making very sure not to leave anything behind pertaining to the running of the city, and slips them into the satchel under her arm. Nodding in satisfaction, she leaves the room and closes the door behind her. She smiles at the students she passes in the halls on her way back to the door, regretting that she won't be seeing them every day anymore.

Patting her hidden water bottles, she leaves the mage school and steps up into the carriage that's waiting to follow her belongings to the Draco palace, where she will live and conduct her business from now on~

~arrives at the Draco palace just a few minutes after the arrival of her belongings. She watches the men unload it in the courtyard for the palace servants to deal with, then goes inside to look around. Making a face at the musty atmosphere, the first thing she does is open the curtains on every window she comes across on her way to where her office will be. She would open the windows themselves if it wasn't cold outside and makes a mental note to ask someone to do that a little at a time. Cold or not, the place needs some fresh air.

She finds her office without much difficulty and gives it a once-over, nodding with approval. There is sufficient storage for paperwork, the desk and chair are comfortable, and there is a nice view outside the window. A small table and a few chairs sit across the room from the desk.She might need to bring in a larger table, but that should be easy enough.

Satisfied with her office, she goes further into the palace to find her room. After wondering for a few moments if someone might have hidden it from her, she finds it on another floor, her things already being brought in an left for her to unpack. It's more spacious than her room at the mage school had been, and she shakes her head. All her things won't fill up half the room. She'd never been one for excessive personal belongings, but she might have to find some more furniture for the room. A table, defintely, some comfortable chairs, maybe a wardrobe or a chest of drawers. She can't live out of her baga forever, after all.

Sighing softly, she takes a seat on the bed, setting her satchel down beside her, to think and plan.~
