And I hear there's a mage who is less than friendly working on a town a few miles to the west. Both should be handled." Antoinette focused on the words of the ancient mage Kune, digesting what he had said as she continued to dwell silently towards the rear of the room. A 'little' demon infestation... she had not heard a more casual description of an issue that had the potential to spiral wildly out of control before and she felt a slight smirk spreading to her lips. As for a rogue mage, that matter she did not find entertaining at all. Already she knew that she would be willing to undertake both tasks. But which was the most important, she asked herself. A rogue mage always had the potential to cause massive destruction and death, though usually they lacked the extremely evil nature of demonic forces. She disposed those that damaged the reputation of magic users and would happily try to eliminate such an individual. Demonic issues though had a habit of multiplying exponentially if they were left unopposed. Her mind went back to the minions of Ulgozil and how they had defeated and taken practically an entire nation. She wondered briefly if the situation there was resolved at all, or if the people of the Aganorat region still lived in constant fear and misery. She pushed the thoughts from her mind, unwilling to remember more from her past and instead she focused on the situation on hand. It did not occur to her to share her thoughts with the others and open the topic to discussion. After a little more thought she made up her mind. With a slight step forwards she simply said [color=2F4F4F]"North.... we should go north before the situation becomes worse than it undoubtedly already is."[/color] As she spoke her emerald gaze flicked around the room to see if any would oppose her suggestion. It wasn't that she was unfriendly (though it certainly must be coming across that way) but rather she was out of practice when it came to spending time with others.
