Mikhail ended up being informed of the contents of the letter after he had calmed down his own thoughts. Unfortunately, the situation Xandar put himself into wasn't exactly a desirable one. Having been invited by the so called "Lady Alice", whom they barely knew, he exposed himself to danger by walking right into the claws of a queen. Trusting the said priestess that could open a portal to Kaeleer was already risky, but it didn't even came close to blindly trusting an unknown queen. That day had been nothing but trouble. The first problem arose at the inn, with the discussion and what was said to Faeril, in a few moments though, one problem turned into two when they saw themselves forced to trust an unknown priestess to go to Kaeleer and finally, the two problems turned into three when they received Xandar's message. 

With the group dividing in three groups, Mikhail was tasked in accompanying Gennar and Fatima to see the priestess that was supposed to help them going to Kaeleer. Even though Mikhail was, in a certain manner, relieved to have received the least problematic task, he still had his worries regarding Faeril, whom despite being safe at the inn, didn't show signs of getting better yet and more importantly, he worried for the situation with that 'Alice'. Jandar went to her court alone. While it could be interpreted by the queen as a sign that they had peaceful intentions, it could also put them in disadvantage. Jandar was, after all, by himself and Xandar... well... his actions were as erratic and unpredictable as ever.

Mikhail followed Gennar and Fatima down the old road that led them to where they were supposed to meet the priestess. As they approached the place, Mikhail soon heard the rhythmic, creaking noise of a rocking chair. The moment his eyes saw an old woman, carelessly knitting in front of an old cottage, he was visibly more relaxed. That fact, coupled with him not perceiving any other presence or strange noise around meant that the priestess was probably, harmless... Or at least the number of manners that she could be a threat to them were very little.

As the group approached the old cottage though, the old priestess proved to have quite the sharp senses as she greeted them, almost immediately mentioning that Fatima was not only a queen, but a dark jeweled one at that. Leaving the introductions to Fatima, whom among him and Gennar, was probably the most suited to those type of interaction, Mikhail simply nodded to them, silently letting them know that it was everything okay before looking to the old priestess and making a discreet but rather polite bow, greeting her in silence. Despite her age, she had sharp senses and judging by how much she was able to tell about them with a single glance, had wisdom according to her age. Maybe meeting that old priestess could be a blessing instead of another problem for them to deal with.
