As time went on and the infighting of the group, stationed here to gather information and perform experiments, reached its peak, Eleanor could gradually see the number of casters decline. As the last group of mages went off into the distance she was announced lady of the mansion. While she always dreamt of becoming lady of this magnificent mansion, it was obvious, that it was of a sentence to prison, than a promotion.   So she lived on in the mmansion, her hair becoming grey, her skin starting to sag and her mind beginning to crumble.
