I live in Pyre, and I would say it is a beautiful city, but that's because I am a chronic liar. I have hated this dump of a city since I was young. However, I have had little luck trying to live somewhere else, and when even my last plan to settle down in the New World failed, I ended up staying in this cursed city.
Right now, I squat in a small, burned-down apartment in the Smolder district near Redrun. It is not the nicest place... I wouldn't even say that it's nice at all or even decent if I am to be honest, but it beats the old orphanage and wilderness of the New World at all times.
Well... It's kind of embarrassing to admit, but as of right now, I am broke, and it's not even like when people who don't want to pay for themselves say that they are broke. I don't have a single crown to my name. But I have to eat and drink, so what I do is that I either shoplift or pickpocket some good-looking girls who would do their darnedest to help an injured soldier as myself. I don't just come to them and shuffle through their pockets, I play this whole monodrama in front of them where I pretend to fall down and not being able to get up (The first few times I didn't know how to fall without hurting myself and I almost broke a few ribs.) then they usually help me up and ask me what happened to me. Thats usually the moment I can lean on them and it is not weird that I am touching them (and secretly going through their pockets).
As for what I spend the hard-earned pennies I get, it's simple, I buy food and drink. Personally I never owned a lot of things, so I don't mind having much.
