Lord Dracosi made no sign that he acknowledged his assassin's nod but his eyes did lock with Maxis's for the briefest of seconds. It was enough for Maxis to understand that his lord was pleased with the kill. As Kara returned the council to order his eyes flashed to her for several moments and when she nodded slightly moments later it became obvious to any who were observant that some unknown conversation had passed between them unheard.<br/><br/>He stood suddenly, the white bones that adorned his black armor catching the light as he did, and turned without a word towards the exit to his private chambers. As he made his way out of the room and passed by Maxis he sent a final message to his assassin.<br/><br/>"Stay for the remainder of the meeting, when it is done bring Lady Alyana and Lisast to my chambers"<br/><br/>Then he brushed past him and out of the room his personal guards following behind. The council was still in mild chaos, many of the ancients still in an uproar. It did not return to order until Kara unsheathed her six foot long greatsword and clove one of the tables in two with a massive overhand blow.<br/><br/>"ENOUGH!" she roared, "You bicker like children, Amaris betrayed us and recieved the fate she rightfully deserved. The moment is past and we will waste no more time or words on her. Now who has the next order of business?"<br/><br/>The council members quickly sat down and the next ancient who was to speak stood and began, the council would likely last for several more hours. Though everyone present knew that the most exciting part was over and that the remainder would be boring and dull, it was their duty to remain till all matters had been settled.
