Plaza San Francisco, Luncheon-Reserved Building [/center]

The young Assassin, still in her spirit form and utilizing her Presence Concealment as well, was first hit with the smells of slow-cooked meats and other foods as she entered the building. Taking a moment to silently move away from the doorway, keeping the the nearest wall, Jack peered about the room, taking in what information she could about her surroundings. Indeed, the small banquet hall, a banner welcoming the masters, and other decor and fact there was actually food at least seemed to mean this whole "luncheon" thing was actually genuine. Neat. However, this sort of thought did not really last in Jack's mind, especially since she was here to observe and maybe even get to make another master go "bye-bye"! To that end, she also took note of the figures she could see in the room at the current time. One of them was some lady wearing odd clothes, kind of like a....magician? Yeah, that was it! Grail-provided information allowed the young servant to make the comparison between this person's attire and a "magician" who did cheap magic tricks, like pulling a bunny out of a hat. However, the fact that this oddly-dressed lady possessed Command Seals meant she was a master. Yay~

This being noted, though, even Jack knew that if a master was actually here, their servant had to be here as well, likely in spirit form of nothing else. It was obvious after more observation, though, that the other young girl that was in the room was not a master, as she didn't even have command seals on either of her hands! Then again, since she knew about masters and stuff, maybe Jack's daddy would allow her to kill this younger girl as well! That could be lots of fun! Yet for the moment being, she needed to relay all of this back to her daddy through their mental link. Proceeding to do so, Jack used her mental link with Charles to relay (in her usual, childlike manner) her observations of the inside of the building to him, noting the current positions of those whom she could see in the building and even making a note of a possibly other servant in spirit form being there if nothing else. 

[color=gold][i]'And that's everything we have seen so far, daddy!'[/i][/color] the young servant communicated to Charles via their mental link, ending her relay of information to the man in a simply, happy, childlike manner that had continued to be rather normal for her in her interactions with her daddy, [color=gold][i]'So what do you want us to do now, hmm?[/i][/color]

Plaza San Francisco, Just Outside The Bounded Field-Covered Building [/center]

As she approached the meeting place, Elyse neatened up the skirt of her maid uniform once more, perhaps out of habit more than anything else. Even she could sense the Bounded Field like the other mages that were in this war, unless someone incompetent had gotten caught up in this conflict or had joined. To be safe about this, in her opinion, she needed to perhaps overestimate her opponents to some extent to ensure she would not be caught off-guard by them later. Even so, at this event she trusted her servant to keep her safe and ward off attacks from others. If she could get through this event on a more peaceful note, trying to get some information in the process, then maybe she had a chance of locating her first target in this war, or at least finding out who to avoid for the time being in this war if possible. Who knew, perhaps she could even find a temporary ally or such, though considering the rewards of this Grail War the chances of this seemed realistically low. Perhaps her servant could at least find a new rival, or even run into a knight desiring some form of honorable combat later on that her servant could enjoy. 

This being noted, however, such an opponent with such knight-like standards would have a decent chance of being a potent servant in their own right. Someone like King Arthur or his knights from British lore or a knight like Roland among the paladins of Charlemagne, for example, would be the sort of opponents who would likely possess potent Noble Phantasms, high parameters, and Skills that could give her and Lancer a hard time when it came down to it. Perhaps avoiding such opponents at the beginning would be the best idea for her and Lancer, depending on the situation that is. For now, though, the possibility that some mages would come just to try to gather basic information about each other and those who were brave enough to come to this event was hopefully the most likely possibility at this event. Just to be on the safe side, however, Elyse had take a somewhat longer, indirect, winding route to get to this place that was meant to throw people off of her trail and make it seem like she was coming to this location from a very different direction than she would have come if she had just come here straightaway from her hotel room. Even if at least a few of the other magi were just trying to get information, though she knew this was not the only possibility, then at least she could hide what direction her base was in to try to keep herself hidden to some extent. 

Was she nervous about going in though? Well, the answer would be inevitably "yes". She did not know if enemies were waiting just inside, or if this really was just a nice little luncheon for the masters in an attempt by Dark Amazon to sell products or get new customers in the middle of a conflict. Whatever the case was, Elyse stopped just short of the door for a moment, taking a look about her surroundings for the sake of precaution. Looking up at some of the local birds that were flying by, though, Elyse noted something strange among them as she glanced by the flock. A pigeon, standing out due to its contrasts to the local birds it seemed to be flying with for some reason. It was odd, to say the least, and Elyse got the strong gut feeling it could likely be a familiar. Mm, but she couldn't do anything about that, considering she had no familiar of her own and did not want to expose her servant so soon to a simple familiar. So she needed to play along as if she had not noticed the strange bird that seemed all-too foreign to this part of the world. 

[color=magenta][i]'Sense any other servants nearby, Lancer?'[/i][/color] Elyse communicated to her servant through their mental link, wanting to check with him to see if he could sense any other servants in the building or the area around said building before the two of them went into the building.
