Shallista looked on as the others looked at the property in shock. "Pretty good lot I picked up, huh?"
The others stayed silent, continuing to look on.
"Come on, girls," Shallista said. "This is getting awkward. Say something."
"It's a great property," Hilde said. "There's no disputing that. It's just-"
"How did you manage to afford such a large place?" Wendy asked.
"I've been saving for fourteen years, so I had a good stash," Shallista said. "It didn't hurt that this place was an outhouse when I found it, so I was able to get it for next to nothing. It took a while for me to fix this place up. Thanks for being patient."
"You did this by yourself?" Audrixia asked.
"Not entirely," Shallista said with a sly smile. "A few guys came by to help." She turned and slapped her buttocks. "I saved a lot of money. All I had to do was let them cop a feel of this rock-hard rear end. It's amazing what some men will do just to get a little touch."
"That is so low," Cordelia grumbled.
"Use it if you've got it," Shallista said. "Nothing wrong with that, right? Now let's go inside. I want to show you around."
As soon as they entered, they found themselves in a large room with a number of chairs and tables. Along the back wall, there was a bar with several stools, stairs leading up to the next floor, and a number of doors leading either to rooms or further in. "Is this some kind of pub?" Akiko asked.
"I suppose it could be," Shallista answered. "I meant for it to be the main area where us Sexy Warriors can gather for meetings."
Wendy looked around, saying, "this is a little too much for just the six of us."
"I know," Shallista said. "I was thinking of the future when I bought this place. My goal is to have a small army of barely-clothed warriors. It may look like a lot of space now, but eventually this place will be packed to the gills. It's going to be so much fun."
"And why do we need an army?" Akiko asked.
"To meet the needs of the city, the region, the continent, and eventually the world," Shallista said. "Whether it's slaying dragons, searching for lost kittens, or feeding the homeless there will be a Sexy Warrior who can do the job."
"Maybe the city, but the world?" Wendy asked. "Why the world?"
"Because scantily warriors have a bad image around the world," Shallista answered. "I want to show that we're more than just eye candy. There's more to us than just embarrassing armor. That's why I want the Sexy Warriors guild to touch the world, not just our base of operations here."
"So where do we start?" Audrixia asked.
"By looking for jobs, taking requests, and recruiting new members," Shallista answered. "Also, we have a lot of land out back. We can divide it up into grounds, a stable, or other things. I'm even planning on growing some crops."
Wendy's face lit up. "A stable? So I can get a horse?"
"If you can afford it, sure," Shallista said. "Oh, I guess I should go over the rules. A guild is nothing without rules, after all." She counted off one finger. "First, you must always wear your uniform when on duty. You are allowed to wear a cape or cloak, but for the most part, covering up is not allowed. You can wear whatever you want when you aren't on duty."
"I can still wear clothes?" Hilde asked. She pumped her fist and said, "Yes!"
Shallista counted off another finger. "Second, you must always represent the Sexy Warriors guild with class and dignity, whether you're on or off duty. Being a Sexy Warrior is nothing to be ashamed of. You will walk with pride while on duty and not deny your affiliation while off duty."
"Sounds good," Cordelia said.
Shallista counted off a third finger. "Every member of the Sexy Warriors is encouraged to actively recruit members, but all candidates must be approved by me. If I am unable to for some reason, Audrixia and Wendy have the ability to approve of temporary members until I can see them."
"What?" Wendy screeched. "I don't know if I can."
"I wouldn't have chosen you if I thought you couldn't," Shallista said.
"It's an honor," Audrixia said.
"I-I'll do my best," Wendy said.
"And those are the guild rules," Shallista said. "As you can see, things will be pretty loose around here. You are free to live here in this building I've fixed up or find a residence elsewhere. You are also free to stop being a Sexy Warrior at any time. Just let me know when you want to quit. You are also free to keep your armor and rejoin at any time. Understood, ladies?"
"Understood," the others said.
Shallista smiled. "Now then, let's get busy. We have a lot of work to do to if we want to make this happen. The Sexy Warriors guild is officially open for business."
