**Levana found herself back at the Yard of Vines, again, which seemed to cause her further undue annoyance. Looking around, she surveyed the area for this meeting that was to take place.**
It was not hard to pick out a table inhabited by Sylvanites. Their 'riding clothes' were over-designed to the point of absurdity; Aster couldn't help but think the ruffles would interfere with any equestrian endeavours.
Nodding again, Emerald waved over a waitress to take Levana's order. The young kindirin woman smiled warmly, lifting a quill to a thin slab of what appeared to be marble.
It was at this moment that a man at the opposite table spun his chair round to bring it in line with theirs. He wore a rather drab elexian ensemble comprised entirely of nice materials with no colour, the exception to the appearance being the streak of silver in his unkempt black hair. Despite the sudden turn, he place a white wine smoothly on the table in front of him.
Levana - What an amusing irony; as we would prefer to know more about what we're going to be facing exactly. In fact, you could go as far as to say I insist knowing.
Levana - Tampered with... but surely the enchantment has safeguards? So, to disrupt it, they must have a singular purpose? And are very resourceful. I doubt even I could manage such a feat, with assistance or no.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Burgundy Puff- We are representatives of the interests of Sylvan, yes.
Periwinkle Puff- Are you perhaps here about our advertisement?
Emerald Ruffle- They're ruffles.
Levana - Ruffles... how unobservant of me. Yes, I am here on the business of your advertisement.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
There was a pause as all three decided to sip their wines, which were also somehow colour coded.
Burgundy Puff- Where do your talents lie, then?
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Emerald Ruffle- That should be sufficient. Would you care to sit with us while we wait for further suitables?
Levana - That should be sufficient, yes.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Theron- I'm in.
The puffs seemed momentarily speechless.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Theron smirked and took a sip of his wine.
Theron- Name's Theron. I'm good with locks, large structures and I can see through illusions.
Burgundy- Those would be useful skills...
**The Oathbreaker witch-woman's expression might have softened, but probably not.**
Levana - You may call me Levana.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Levana - As you say.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Burgundy- We would prefer to wait until we have a full group.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Emerald- You've no doubt noticed that we've come here from Sylvan.
Theron- Hard to miss, what with the ruffles.
Emerald- Put bluntly, we need a group to investigate the temple that sustains Sylvan's eternal night. We fear it may have been tampered with.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
Emerald- Hope would be the word, yes.
To live is to hope, and while we breathe, we hope and live.
