My eyes once again drift back over to the kneeling Maro at the end. I don't know why but I feel like he made a complete idiot out of me. On some level, I had trusted him. I look away and allow the Elder to handle the situation.
This was his place, his people. Unless I'm directly attacked, I won't lift a finger. As soon as I turn to grab the glass of heavenly wine, Kian already has it and is holding it out to me. Damn, he's just too good... I take it with a small smirk before turning back to the kneeling Angels.
I take a sip of wine and wonder why the Elder is just silently staring at them. Is this an act of intimidation? I take another sip as someone else walks into the room in a fit of rage. Another angel but this one walks with his chin up in the air as if he's superior. Micha... the Angel from the report. The Elder must have been waiting for him...
