It had been a pleasant walk from the silk steps and he did not carry a worry in the world. This was not his first meeting with the royalty in the city being from a noble family, they had met numerous times. It was not his first time being called upon to hunt for the Queen. Over the years, he had a name for himself and his skill. His stride had a purpose and he wore a confident grin as he made his way into the throne room. However, he did not expect to see fifteen other people alongside him. He had gotten the impression from the letter that only the best of the best would be called. Considering he had not heard of some of the folk nearby, he was uncertain that was the case. Then there was the matter that there were so many of them. Nikolai wondered if something big was happening. Nikolai kneeled before the Queen [color=92278f]"Greetings, your Majesty."[/color] He said before he was given a nod by the queen to stand. Nikolai continued to peer around the room at the others noticing Alice and Adelaide Varo had entered along with them. He moved over beside them and faced the two giving them a cheeky grin. [color=92278f]"You sure you Varo girls are up for this?"[/color] He laughed at his own teasing words. Nikolai stopped and returned his attention to the Queen to await the briefing.
