Chapter 45: Three questions
"First of all, Let me introduce you to my advisors." Sylara started, and gestured to her right. "This is Geodor, our resident Grand Mage."
The old man gave them a nod, but didn’t say anything.
"This is Tiana, the head of logistics and infrastructure." She pointed at the unremarkable woman.
Tiana gave them a little wave, and Sylara moved on.
"You already know Alison - she’s the Captain of the Verdant Watch, which is a military organisation that acts as both our army and city guard."
The youngest advisor didn’t acknowledge them aside from a quick glance.
"And finally, the lil ol’ me - I’m Sylara, and you may call me that, but to people of the city I’m known as the Lady of the Grove. I also have a couple more names, but I won’t bore you with a long list." She looked at Calen and her eyes twinkled. "Besides, you already know one of them."
"...the Matriarch." He said.
Sylara nodded with a smile.
"Before we begin discussion proper, would you mind showing your mark, so that we’re all on the same page as to what we’re talking about?*
"Sure." He shrugged.
Calen put his wrist on the table, showing the half-lit sun to everyone present.
