Upon receiving the keys to the office, Mayor Winfield quickly moved in his personal effects.  On his desk is a stuffed fish, presumably stuffed with old scrolls, fish hooks, and something made of metal that he would not talk about.  In the center of the desk is a journal and sextant.  Winfield used the sextant to calculate coordinates and create ideas while spinning the realm globe off to his right.  There was a stack of old books in fine print with an hourglass on top.  The hourglass reminded the Mayor he has little time to read through each book before another shipment arrives from the PaxLair Post Office.

Finally, a pile of gold lay on the floor.  When asked what it was for, Mayor Winfield replied, "I'm a bit behind on my taxes and I over-extended my budget for this building.  There are some workers requiring back-pay and it's not good to upset the Ronin and Bake Kitsunes in the area.  John Duke is also a bit upset with me for not managing the budget properly.  So I throw every extra piece of gold onto the pile."  When asked if people can make donations he said, "I don't seek donations.  People have enough economic peril of their own.  The pile just reminds me to pay the local evil for their past services before they create a problem for our Outpost."

While in the office, two adventurers arrived and greeted the Mayor.  They were Lu Bu and Threnody.  After a few moments of discussion, the local Bake Kitsune formed a riot outside, protesting their lack of payment.  Mayor Winfield looked over his shoulder at the monsters that were disturbing the peace and said, "those Bake Kitsune will just have to wait for their payment!  Disperse the crowd please," Lu Bu and Threnody rushed outside and quickly motivated the growing crowd to move back into their woods.

The Mayor is expected to be in his office on a regular basis, when he is not fishing or attending to duties throughout the PaxLair locations and the Realm.  All are welcome to stop by.
