Before the woman Sasha addressed could speak, Queen Julianna threw Hubert to the side, leaving him in a heap. The harpy instead turned her attention to the man kneeling before her, glaring intensely at him. She raised a hand and all at once Xarces would feel his body freeze and splu out spread eagle, suddenly rising into the air for everyone to see. His muscles would start to strain to painful degrees, and only were stressed more and more by the second.<br/><br/>"Do not address me, vermin. I am not in the mood to deal with the like of you." She said venomously, raising her other hand. A scared murmur went through the crowd, fearing that Xarces' death was at hand.<br/><br/>"That's enough Julianna!" A voice called out above the commotion, causing the Queen to drop Xarces at once, freezing up. Standing at the doorway to the meeting hall were three others, the woman Jules had encountered before, a tall, regal looking dragon with anthromorphic qualities, and a normal looking woman with acception to her tinted blue skin and fins splaying out where her ear should be. The dragon and merwoman were dressed in the finest attire, same as Julianna, to match the dragon's Ruby ring and the merwoman's Saphirre pendant. The dragon spoke again, as he did to get her attention.<br/><br/>"There will be no more of your tantrums here in Oath. Elder Hubert has done nothing to antagonize himself in the past, what if his words are true?" He growled. Julianna huffed.<br/><br/>"He is an old man with a senseless thirst for flights of fancy. He could be telling this just to get a kick out of our reactions, or send the youthful adventures to their untimely deaths." She said.<br/><br/>"Nothing has happened yet, my dear Julianna." The merwoman said with a polite smile. "All we can do is keep our ears open and take heed to whatever is given. If the news is false, then no harm done. If it is true, we must be ready for what it implies."<br/><br/>(Elsewhere)<br/><br/>"Hello, madam. Welcome to Oath's Inn. Are you interested in a room? It will be ten gold a night." The receptionist said kindly, grinning to Shelby.
