Iris follow Lily into the council room silently, yellow orange eyes glaring at the vampires. When Lily sat in her chair at the head of the odd  table, Iris stood behind her silently. She had tuned out the beginning of the meeting, making sure there were no threats around, probing the minds of these pompous fools.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FFFF00">“We always have a good reason to summon you to our underground castle, my beloved Queen,” started a different council member. She had long straight hair and crimson red lips and spoke in a low, laxed, and almost sensual tone. “We summoned you here you discuss what you plan to do about our savage rouge counterparts that have caused numerous deaths in the Church of Helios and how now they want our heads on a platter. Perhaps you've heard of these events?,” she talked down to Lily like a child and spoke as if she knew nothing at all.</span><br/><br/>Iris's deep black fur bristled slightly as she started a low growl that normal humans would not be able to hear. A few of the council members froze hearing it, paling even more then they already were. Lily kept her poise of course, at least physically.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF0000">“Well, my most cunning council member, we could just let them kill all the members of Helios,” Lily replied with a snarkish grin in such a way that it was almost impossible to tell she was being sarcastic.</span><br/><br/>Iris could feel the sarcasm in her voice and settled, she has this under control. One of the members, newer member, cleared his throat,<span style="color: #00FF00">"My Queen. I personally do not believe that it is vampyre rogues are to be blamed for this. Something else is going on. And are we not suppose to be showing a united front against the Church?"</span>Iris turned her head to study him, memorizing his dark brown hair and green eyes.<span style="color: #40FFFF">"Oh do shut up Richard!"</span>another member called, Kellen. She had grey hair, and was one of the older vampyres. Most wondered why she wasn't queen. But she wasn't as old as Lily, nor near as powerful.<span style="color: #00FF00"> "Look you old wench,"</span>Richard started. Iris snorted and turned her head to Lily, 'I like him, can we promote him? He doesn't seem like the other louts.'
