Mikhail had to look up slightly at the imposing Commander, but
he does not flinch from the man's gaze. A look at the scroll and
then back to the Commander "I was unaware anyone of particular
importance thought highly of me Commander." He did not assume
that the Commander was amongst those that thought as
much...powerful military men rarely enjoyed being told to do
something from on high. Mikhail waits to see what this business
is all about, consciously holding himself rigid instead of
relaxing into his more cavalier norm.

Mikhail's eyes grew wide for a heartbeat, this was all deeply
unexpected. Taking the scroll and key he manages to keep a grin
from his face...especially withthe storm-cloud mood of the
Commander.
"I swore not to sully this tabard Commander, I stand by my
oaths." With that seeming dismissal he salutes, waiting just
long enough to insure the Commander really was done with him.
Then Mikhail would back and turn just as sharply as before and
forces himself to walk composedly until he was again out of
sight of the Palace. The grin that breaks across his face then
is a feral thing and he would hurry to find Borya and return
home to give Igor the news...and to oversee the sudden move.

*the other gaurds looked at him as he gathered up his horse and
left the area. There were Rumors already beginning to fly about
the Guard house and had circled the entire Guard by the time he
reached home*

Mikhail was unaware of the rumor mill's wild fire speed, the
intended to find Justin before reporting for duty the next day
to tell him what happned with no idea his fellow wall walker
would already have heard some version of the tale.
Upon arriving he rouses Igor from his prayers "come m friend, we
have work to do...we've been given a new residence..." he looks
at the scroll, silently hoping it was in simple enough Greek he
could read it...if not he just looks for what appears to be an
address so he can tell Igor where they are moving. "I have been
moved to the palace guard by some mysterious benefactor as
well."

Mikhail grins "I would have thought so too...but I think the ice
maiden has something to do with this." Mikhail quickly tells
Igor of the mysterious beauty he'd chanced upon and her supposed
connection to the Commander. Clapping a hand on Igor's broad
shoulder "so you see, running my mouth doesn't always lead to
trouble. Now come, we must hire the porters again and pack."
Thankfully they hadn't been long in this place so packing again
wouldn't be too difficult. Mikhail himself became busy with
packing his small collection of things, stripping out of his
tabard and armor to make the move easier.
Once the porters were there and the wagon was loaded, Mikhail
led them and Igor roughly in the direction the address
suggested, eager to see their new home.

*the place was a were stones throw from the Palace about 4 times
the size of the place he was in it had a open courtyard and a
Large bathe several rooms on the ground floor for studies a
small stable and upstairs were 8 rooms*
Are you sure this is the place?
*Igor asked very questioningly before entering the building*

Mikhail looks at the building, then back to the scroll, before
pointing to the numbers carved into the lintal above the main
entry gate. "This is the place Igor Federovich..." he sounded
surprised himself as he came to the gate and tried the lock.
Once the entry was open he entered and waved all through behind
him, staring about the place with an almost solemn look on his
face. "We will need to hire staff for this place...at least to
keep it clean. But come, let us explore our new home." He
switches back to Greek to speak to the porters, directing them
to unload the wagon in the first likely room he came upon before
sending them off with coin in hand.
Mikhail would, no doubt with Igor, then begin to walk the house,
marveling that already he was in such a great house. "What do
you think Igor?" he would ask after they had seen at least some
of the place.

I don't think you make enough to Hire enough staff to keep this
place clean, plus cook, plus laundry and everything else that
goes with a household
*he was sounding a bit discouraged as he looked about the place*
it is nice though
