Ehno followed silently behind the girl as she scampered along through the living room and was faced with the door. Even without being in her optime form, Mati had no trouble opening the old door herself. She was apparently used to such a maneuver after coming in and out of the mansion by herself all this time. Amber eyes peered into the darkness of the cellar, curious to see what might lie at the bottom of the steps.
He moved to the doorway as Mati took a tentative step forward, giving the door an extra little push to make sure it was as far as it would go. It appeared almost pitch black down in the cellar, so it would benefit them to have as much light pour in through the doorway as they could get. The Italian boy fell into step beside Mati, giving her an encouraging smile while she could still see it. Each step taken brought out a small creak of protest from the old wooden stairs. They were nearly to the bottom, and as his eyes adjusted, Ehno could make out some faint shapes along the nearest wall. It seemed to be a stack of boxes of some sort.
