[h3]Ajax Thera - Council Member[/h3] The [url=http://safebooru.org//images/1359/218f9457918ac62721b7a583fc6aca9c1a27e031.png?1412160]black-haired man[/url] looked a bit flustered as his opponent put him in a checkmate. The expression quickly passed into a serious one as his yellow eyes went up to Kyou before him. It no longer appeared that he was bothered by his defeat at the game. [b]"We will see what comes of those guilds,"[/b] he spoke, his voice surprisingly soft-spoken despite being a notably large fellow. [b]"I have a feeling they are more important than we realize..."[/b] [h2]Two Weeks Later[/h2] The relatively young council member walked silently through the streets of Crocus. His large stature and choice of clothing, being that it resembled black samurai armor, made him easily noticed. Most naturally stepped out of his way, but his body language held no threatening presence. Ajax approached the Vyper Bolt district, stopping a moment to admire it. Though his serious expression didn't change, his eyes were clearly darting around and soaking in the details. With heavy footsteps he entered the district, ascending the stairs and looking around for any signs of life. It wasn't until the council member arrived at the main building did he find anyone. With a polite knock at the front door, he entered the guild hall and took a brief look around. His gaze eventually settled on several older gentlemen, whom Ajax presumed were a few of the Masters of Vyper Bolt. [b]"Excuse me, gentlemen,"[/b] he introduced, keeping his voice at a respectfully low volume. [b]"I came here on behalf of the Magic Council to inquire about some of your members. Do you have the time to answer a few questions?"[/b]
