:Ruogang discovered that there was money to be made by promising to extract long-lost relatives from the Compendious House. Unfortunately, her reputation was built on a couple of lucky breaks: one elderly aunt she was able to bundle out of a low window in a sack and a child who had simply wandered in and was all to happy to follow Ruogang out. In her current contracts, she is meeting serious resistance and she is arousing suspicion with the denizens of the house. | :Ruogang discovered that there was money to be made by promising to extract long-lost relatives from the Compendious House.
