NIKI
Settling his concentration on his current task, by the time Niki realises the cat has disappeared he's been gone for quite some time, leaving only an empty saucer in his wake. Still, the necromancer treats that as an offering accepted, smirking to himself and continuing about his business. While he finishes his soup, eats and washes up, Vesper will find the ground floor of Niki's home to be mostly unremarkable.
His bedroom is as neat and uncluttered as expected, his workshop the complete opposite as if by design, and aside from the lounge and a bathroom, there's very little else to see. There are other doors, of course, and a disused staircase spidering both up and, curiously, down, but the doors to those areas are closed and locked.
And Niki, once he's finished with dinner, heads into the living room where the fire has started to get low. Adding a few more logs to it and dismissing his cane to sit on the couch, he props his bad leg up on a plush footstool and grabs for the book he'd been reading, settling in quiet peace to listen to the pop of sap and the continuing patter of rain.
