Putting on the Ritz

This mansion, once home to the island's mayor, was burnt to the ground in a mysterious fire that occurred right before the evacuation. Now, nothing lies in the area except for scorched earth and the very basic foundations of the once colossal abode.

Putting on the Ritz

Justin found a manhole after wandering through the sewer for what felt hours. He had taken his shirt off and used it to cover his nose and mouth. That smell was just overbearing.  He climbed the ladder and pushed the cover up. Cautiously he peaked out making sure that no one was around. While he didn't mind running into people, he wanted to sit down and re-read  the guide provided so he could fully grasp what he was in.

After slowly exiting the hole, he stood up and looked at his surroundings. He found himself in a field next to the backyard of a large mansion. The mansion did not appear to be inhabited, which gave Justin a sense of calm. He slowly made his way towards the rear entrance where there should have been lovely doors, but  instead there was nothing but a pile of rubble. Being careful of the rubble around him, Justin entered the house cautiously.

This place looks nice. He thought sarcastically.

The interior confirmed that the mansion had been the victim of a large fire. Everything was seared to a jet black color. As Justin made his way through one of the rooms, another horrible smell filled Justin's nostrils.  He quickly put his shirt over his mouth and nose.

What the hell is with this place. I can't walk 100 yards without it smelling like shit.

This smell wasn't like the one in the sewer though. Justin had never smelled anything like it. As he got to the bottom of a staircase, he decided to investigate the smell. He looked around but could not find the source. The smell had become overbearing and caused a feeling of nausea. Justin turned and ran out the back door and vomited on the patio.

Dammit. This is ridiculous.

Justin recovered from his brief sickness just in time to hear the announcement.  

Shit, this mansion is a danger zone!

Justin quickly rose from his knees, grabbed his bags and hightailed it in the direction of the Old Church.
