Geir gathered all the executives and rising talents of the five Blade Houses inside the grandeur of the Blade Dancer Clan's main mansion's audience chamber.
At the far end of the chamber, facing the north, a lone golden high chair was atop a tall platform. Lucian was sitting in that chair, and Geir stood by his right. Below the platform, just before the several steps, stood the five house leaders. Like Geir, their expressions were devoid of emotion as they stared down at the executives below.
Lucian's eyes were closed as he leaned on the high chair. He appeared majestic, with a faint golden light exuding from him. However, no one could express their awe because they sensed that underneath the majestic aura, a malevolent pressure was threatening to erupt, a reminder of his unrivaled power.
Alta stood with the rest of the rising talents of the Sound House at the far back, where all the other talents from the other Blade Houses were lined up.
