The room was silent, even though over fifteen people were inside. They were all seated around the large dining table.
Bran sat at one end while Bea sat at the other. They were staring at each other with serious and even a bit hostile expressions, but neither was inclined to begin the conversation.
Everyone at the table felt that something was wrong. These two individuals never met before by their knowledge, so why would they act like this?
The only people who seemed to have an idea were Cass and Melinda, but they didn't want to take part in the silent argument.
After a few more minutes of this display, Bea finally had enough and through gritted teeth she spoke...
"So you are the Bran I have heard a lot about. You don't seem too impressive to me... Why would we trust you if you are all so weak?"
She was referring to Bran mostly, but didn't want to single him out, so she insulted all of them.
