[color=4f846d]"...You're my master."[/color]

The man in front of him seemed startled. The fog had only just cleared, but already Archer was on the edge of the circle, only a few feet away from the man who had clearly summoned him. He had wasted no time, striding across the circle as soon as his body had finished taking form. There were other Servants in the room already, and other Masters, but there was no doubt that the man he was now staring down was the mage to whom he was bound with a small smile. [color=4f846d]"I'm Servant Archer of the Black Faction."[/color] He stood about half a foot taller than his master, with an young athletic appearance, but his eyes betrayed a certain primal wildness, as though a storm were brewing behind them. [color=4f846d]"Hello."[/color]

The mage paused, seemingly taken aback by Archer's greeting, before responding. [color=fffb96]"Yes, I'm your Master. The proof is right here."[/color] He held up his right hand, which bore three command seals in the form of a jagged three-pronged shape. [color=fffb96]"My name is August Thane. I hope we can work together well, Archer."[/color] He extended a hand, which Archer clasped after a moment, sealing their contract. [color=4f846d]"Sorry if I've come off a little strong. It's good to meet you, August. I promise you won't be disappointed with my abilities,"[/color] His small smile grew into a warm grin.

[color=fffb96]"That's good to hear."[/color] His master replied as he crouched down to pick up the piece of wood that sat on the ground between them. Archer watched his Master with some interest once he realized what the object was, but said nothing even as it was closed away inside a briefcase. Turning his attention to the room around him, Archer noted the others who occupied various parts of the great hall around him. In particular, his attention was naturally drawn to the three other Servants who had just been summoned. [color=4f846d]"Looks like a strong lineup so far... are those two twins?"[/color] August shook his head, [color=fffb96]"Unlikely. They look to be from very different lands. Anyway, come on."[/color] He moved back towards the entrance of the hall, where a group of mages who he quickly explained to Archer as the future Masters of Black and the Director were waiting.

[color=fffb96]"Just like I thought. I've summoned Archer,"[/color] was all August said when he reached the Director and rejoined the crowd. Archer gave a bemused look at his Master's curt report, but remained silent as he waited for the rest of their faction to appear.
