Alzack nodded. It was definitely a shame that the Lazarel were not here for the meeting but he would figure something else out for them. "I am truly gladdened that you all accepted my invitation. If you would follow me into the meeting room, where House Nebudchinezzar already waits. We can get straight to business. Afterwards I have a feast being prepared in honor of the presences of so many of the Great Houses in Rainamere." He and Artemisia turned around and entered the castle leading the House heads to the meeting room.
