Burning Manor Update

Rumours are the spice of life in The Sack.

***
A truck from a restoration company pulls up in front of the charred remains of Burning Manor. Elizabeth is out of her house and speaking with the driver within seconds.

It seems the rumours about the restoration of Burning Manor are premature.

According to the driver from the restoration company, insurance issues are still unresolved. This likely means Dirk and Dora cannot plan their return to The Sack until the insurance company decides whether to pay out on their policy.

Elizabeth says the restoration company was here to remove the washer and dryer from the house. The driver says these items are the only ones that can be recovered from the damaged home.

While Elizabeth is hardly pacified by this latest news, she tells Mrs. Wonders that she is relieved that the rebuilding of Burning Manor is not imminent.

However, she still wants to tear a strip off Dirk.
