The aura emanating from each of the Supreme Beings was simply overpowering. The strength and gravity of their aura was easily enough to vanquish all traces of the ferocious hunger that burned within herself. For a lowly servant such as herself being granted the privilege of witnessing their divine presence was a blessing in itself. Mercuria had only found the strength necessary to rise up to her feet and stand by her departed Creator's seat when the leader of the Supreme Ones acknowledged her presence. Mercuria listened quietly and attentively as the Supreme Beings discussed matters relating to outside of the Ragnavault's walls. As the topic of discussion touched upon farmlands, the passing thought of engorging herself on the lesser beings and cattle that roamed the lands beyond was nearly enough to send Mercuria beyond the limits of her self-control. However, these impulses were easily suppressed by the beautiful aura of the Supreme Beings who sat so closely by. Each word they spoke was enough to make her forget about the very concept of food. The discussion was now coming to its conclusion. Lord DD appeared to be more tactically-minded in his questions, while LadyP was interested in interaction with the local inhabitants. Her fellow servant, the angel Silva, suggested preparation of an illusion to conceal the Ragnavault. As a servant of the Supreme Beings herself, Mercuria felt an obligation to serve by voicing her own suggestions. [color=8882be][b]"Please pardon this interruption from your humble servant."[/b][/color] Mercuria started to speak in a respectful tone as she slightly bowed her head and shoulders. [b][color=8882be]"We are currently in a situation where we have little intelligence about the strength and power of the beings that live in the surrounding regions. Therefore, we should adopt a defensive strategy and proceed carefully until we have gathered enough information to determine our relative strengths. Although I fully trust in the strength and wisdom of the Supreme Ones, as one of your humble servants, I believe it is my duty to ensure the safety and well-being of each of your lives. Therefore, I request that I be allowed the privilege of accompanying any of the Supreme Ones that wish to leave the safety of the Ragnavault."[/color][/b] Mercuria forced her eyes to raise, looking towards each of the gathered Supreme Beings with a earnest, pleading expression. From her current standing position, the act of looking down upon the seated Supreme Beings felt like a gravely offensive act of the highest degree. However, she forced herself to endure every instinct to avert her eyes, as she would never be able to forgive herself if she let any harm befall any of the remaining Supreme Ones.
