Kethri smiles. "Oh! Of course, you'd like to see your room! Of course! Of course! Follow me!"
She turns and begins walking back down the way they came. She looks over at Balasar as they walk.
"As far as ranking up in the guild, I don't know if Guildmaster Edgewood had a system in place but... While he's left me in charge, I determine guild position based on deeds and dedication to the guild." She waves her hands closely in front of her as she speaks. "The more one does for the guild directly, the more recognition they get, I suppose is the best explanation. You are ranked as an initiate. Initiates get a guild favor, of course, their own room- though it used to be that initiates shared rooms with one another- and certain ward access."
She stops in front of one of the closed doors and gestures to it. "For example, you asked about rooms you shouldn't wander into? Well, most rooms within the guild have wards in place. You must have a ward key to gain access so there is not really a way to accidentally end up somewhere you shouldn't."
Kethri resumes walking and leads him further down the hall, closer to the common room. She pauses by an entryway that branches off from the hall and very clearly declares. "Ward down." There is a shimmer as the ward lowers and Kethri steps inside. Once they are through the ward, she says "Ward up." Then continues down the hall.
"This hall is the members quarters. You will have access to the ward we just passed through allowing access to the hall and then ward control over your own room but no other rooms in this hall." Kethri leads him passed door after door. She finally stops at one door, "Ward down" then reaches for the knob. "This will be your room. If you'd like to rest in here while I send someone to come clean, you may. It may be a bit dusty is all."
She steps aside to let him enter. Inside the room is a single bed, a desk with chair and lamp, a bedside table, a standing dresser, and a window.
"It's not much but it is yours to decorate as you see fit."
