We'd be happy to go to the Land Office with you. We'll just need a moment to get ourselves fixed up." She darted away and came back with her green dress just in time to hear Elias's proposed name for the brothel.

"Certainly, certainly, and yes, we need to get over there and finish this portion of the things we need to get done around here." He agreed.

Getting another eyeful, Elias Steelgrave was convinced that he was going to really enjoy this new business venture with these two women.

"The Palace. Hm, yes, I think that will do nicely. Who wouldn't want to spend the night in a palace?" She smoothed her dress and extended her arm to Elias. "Mr. Steelgrave, would you do me the honor of escorting me back down the stairs?" 

"Certainly, and you're right, who wouldn't want to spend a night here in the Palace, once we get it finished," He said, beaming. "Of course, getting in the things that will make this place the opulent palace it can be, will take time, and adding on where necessary. It will take some time, not a lot, but more than I'd like. We'll not be running this place on a shoestring, that's for sure!"

Waltzing down the boardwalk with a voluptuous woman on either arm, Elias did appear to be some sort of perverse royalty, as the girls had proclaimed him to be. They made their way along toward the Land Office, where he would have the deed recorded into his name, all the while getting odd looks from anyone who happened to see the trio, and that was a hole tot of Kalispell's citizenryI

They reached their destination, and Elias opened the door for his two partners to sahay in ahead of him, following close behind, but closing the door first before stepping up to and between the ladies, if they could be called that.

"Hello!" Hettie greeted the efficient and urbane looking man behind the desk as she hung onto Steelgrave's arm. 

Before the man could respond, Elias staid "You might close your mouth before you catch a fly. I'm Elias Steelgrave, and I have come to transfer this deed into my name as its new owner. These are my partners, Hettie and Tilly, and you are?"
