I am still residing in the barracks; perhaps that might be of interest? They are admittedly spartan, but they suffice for my needs.

[chiastic]

Are there any pets being kept there?

[arturiarex]

I haven't noticed any, but that does not mean there are not. I cannot say with certainty.

[chiastic]

And are there any children?

[arturiarex]

The only child I have met resides elsewhere.

[chiastic]

And as to the questions of drinking, gambling, privacy and so on?

[arturiarex]

I do none of those, but I cannot speak for other residents.

They are barracks, so privacy is somewhat limited.

-Saber

[chiastic]

Then, in accordance with the clear conditions stated in the notice, they are unacceptable.

[arturiarex]

It was a thought.

I hope you find accommodations suitable for yourself soon.
