She led him about the edifice then, showing him the various rooms downstairs, everything from a library to a billiard. She led him to the bar and said, "This is where you get your spirits, wine, and beer. You can also order food, of course." And then she led him to the most lavish room of all. It was richly furnished and there was a painting of her in a state of undress. "And this was my room. It's the biggest and the best. This will be your reward if you serve me well."

She turned to him and half closed her eyes as she peered at him, "And I think you shall do well here. You seem enthusiastic, that is good."
