As soon as she entered the meeting room, she could feel a strong animosity coming from at least two of its other occupants. Arrine wasn't anywhere to be seen yet, neither was her personal aide/probable only actual friend of her own age. Nothing of this fazed the knight. She greeted the others, saying, [color=83EEA7]"Good afternoon,"[/color] in a kind voice before taking a seat for herself. Grain didn't know what was wrong with those mages—even though she had a good guess regarding it—but she knew that trying to follow up with any conversation would be a pointless effort. If any of them talked to her she would reply accordingly, otherwise, she was content to read a book in silence. When Arrine arrived, Grain immediately rose up, showing the proper courtesy that the others didn't seem to mind with. She only sat down again after being told to, ignoring any of the young girl's comments. Grain could only imagine how twisted a girl like Arrine was. Having to grow up with little to no friends of her own ages and no parents to care for her was certainly a painful upbringing. She could understand why the young girl felt like making others' lives "miserable" was an enjoyable pastime. [color=83EEA7]"Why we got summoned here?"[/color] Grain said to herself as she thought about the reason behind Arrine's question. [color=83EEA7]"I'm not knowledgeable in the latest news of the Tower, so forgive my ignorance if it has anything to do with magi affairs. However, if it's not that, I can only think of one recent event significant enough to call the attention of a mage."[/color] [color=83EEA7]"It's because of the Whitechapel murders, is it not?"[/color]
