"We're the new Field Staff team that's moving in. How are our rooms arranged?" Colin stepped forward and showed the Seal Ring on his finger.
After glancing at the Seal Ring, the City Guard picked up a cup of black tea from the table, took a sip, and then said, "Please wait a moment. Let me find the keys for you."

"We've already come all this way, so of course we're willing to stay," Colin said.
"Then let me tell you about the free benefits."
