[color=0054a6]"I forget how religion can be intertwined so closely to magecraft here. Still, it is always good to meet a peer of a noteworthy house, Sa'Saori, and you are much different from the elf who accompanied me for some time. Excellent."[/color] He didn't elaborate further. When it was Ichabod who introduced himself, mentioning being practically the opposite of Sa'Saori and Adelhein himself: no status and self-taught, the youth said nothing. However, his attention had been sequestered by the signet ring on his index finger. He rubbed against his coat to give it a better polish a few times, an impassive expression present on his face. The lack of address from Alicia seemed to have been noticed and filed away. But not before his crimson gaze fell on her, [b]stony and unblinking[/b], for seconds that seemed to stretch. [color=0054a6]"It is time."[/color] He said, both hands on his back.
