@Mangrale@Norschtalen@Lucius Cypher@Ryougu@cloudystarMichele's eyes flared at the sight of Viranti's apparent challenge.
"Oh you think your tough, lizard boy? I could cut you into a million, burning pieces..." She said grabbing the hilts of her axes, she had a really short fuse and Viranti just lit it. She wasn't listening to what the others had to say, as far as she knew this was a group of assassins bent on killing her queen.
"That's quite enough Michele, there Oracle sent word to me ahead of time. I have plenty of time to hear them out." A regal looking young woman with eyes as red as her dress walked into the room, escort by a large, menacing robot.
"My... My apologies, my queen..." Michele backed off, bowing her head low.
"I apologize for my bodyguard's aggressiveness, as she said I've been rather busy. Assassination attempts,
monsters attacking the walls, and an overall discomfort throughout the city." She led the group to a large room, a meeting room to be exact. The queen sat down on a royal looking chair and motioned for the others to sit. The robot seemed to be scanning Malkai.
"SCANS SHOW MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF GREED... PREPARING LOOTING PREVENTION SYSTEMS..." Michele shook her head.
"Don't mind Crabby, he's very protective of the queen and her palace... But if you even move the wrong way he won't hesitate to pump you full of bullets..." She stated.
"Its an... Honor to speak with you Queen Salene. We wish for info on the whereabouts of the Fire Hero Stone..." Khristina said in a rather nervous tone.
"That is what you seek... Well, I would like to hear your reasons for coming on this quest. Oracle, I know your intent very well, but the rest of you... Why did you answer lord Lucius's call?"
@Lady Athena@SkepicLoralei let out a deep sigh when the cloaked man turned out to be quite the gentleman.
"Thank you... I apologize for the bumping into you... I'm in a bit of a rush to meet back up with my mistress Khristina, her work as oracle requires aid." She said adjusting her glasses.
When Nephele appeared holding her weapon at the stranger, Loralei got between them.
"Nephele its ok, this man isn't going to hurt me. He's actually quite nice."
