The clicking sound of a rusty wooden key echoed through the empty house, and the door creaked open. The woman's shadow fell through the door, as she removed her cape hood and stepped inside with a sigh, shutting the door quietly behind her. Her eyes shut momentarily as a deep breath filled her lungs, the scent of fresh wood filled her nose. She then opened her eyes and peered around.
"This is where I will raise a family." She peered down to her peeking tummy. "And you will grow up, too." She smiled, going to set down her basket and cloak, now exploring the place she now called home.
