The doors to the Guild Master's office opened smoothly, revealing the spacious room bathed in the soft glow of the overhead lights. Guild Master Toren sat behind his large desk, his presence as commanding as ever. As Astron and Liana entered, Toren greeted them with a welcoming smile, his eyes sharp with a mix of anticipation and approval.
"Astron," Toren said, his voice carrying a warm yet authoritative tone. "Good to see you."
Astron returned the greeting with a nod, his expression neutral but focused. Without wasting time on pleasantries, he stepped forward and asked directly, "What are your expectations for me, Guild Master?"
Toren's smile widened slightly, clearly pleased by Astron's straightforward approach. He leaned back in his chair, studying Astron for a moment before responding. "Straight to the point, as always," Toren remarked, his tone carrying a note of appreciation. "I expected nothing less from you."
