Lisast heard the muffled giggles and turned her head quickly to the offenders, sending them a dark glare. She didn't care then how old they were. She was no one to be trifled with, at least she prided herself into thinking so.  Any laughs or scornful looks were received with the same emotion, with added vigor. The woman who most likely said the snide comment turned toward her and Alyana, who she couldn't even keep an eye off of. Lisast felt a slight pang of jealousy toward her, wishing she was gifted where this woman was.<br/><br/>The Lady Anaksis spoke then, “"Well Well, what do we have here, fledgelings playing at politics, perhaps you should go hide back in those holes you've spent your un-impressive lives in and leave the politics to those who actually know what they are doing."<br/><br/>“Don't they normally put old bitches down when they've outlived their usefulness?” Lisast thought, glaring heavily at the other lady, refusing to even acknowledge the fact this woman was much older and powerful than she was. She didn't like being challenged and insulted, and this had to stop, lest she'd get treated like a doormat the rest of her time on the council. Before she was able to give voice to her insult, another voice interrupted.<br/><br/>"You should show our new sisters respect Anaksis, I need not remind you that your own deeds were also quite unimpressive when you were appointed to the council." the woman reproached Lady Anaksis, and Lisast couldn't hide the smirk that rose on her luscious red lips. She turned to Lady Daskai and bowed deeply.<br/><br/>"Guard yourself well fledgelings, Lady Anaksis's opinions will not be uncommon, you have much to do before you prove yourself worthy to your sisters.” the Lady walks off leaving Lisast in a bit of shock, before she manages to murmur “I will.”<br/><br/>Hearing a bit of commotion near her, she notices the Herald trying to get her attention. “Name and Title, please.” she's asked.<br/><br/>“Lisast, director of operations for New Yakuza syndicate.” She nods and continues in the line.
