<span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;">Servant Assassin</span></span><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;">Where:</span>McFarlane Estate<br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;">With:</span>Caster McFarlane<br/><hr/><br/>'Organize it however best suited her needs'?  Well, Assassin's Master certainly seemed an affable sort, at the very least.  Of course, that was likely an act.  The man was a magus, after all.  Still, at least he was making an effort to be friendly and accommodating, something she couldn't really fault the man for.  How well they did in the upcoming War would depend quite a bit on how well they were able to work together as a team.<br/><br/>The way the man had to take a moment to collect himself before navigating through the altered room struck her as a bit odd, at first, but when he commented on the sound of the rain, it put things into a sharper perspective for her.  The Master of Assassin was an old, blind man?  Or was he merely 'visually-impaired', a modern term that the grail informed her meant that his eyes were so bad, he might as well be blind for all the use he was getting out of them?  Either way, that bit of information would complicate things severely, not least because it meant that she would be unable to use her usual methods to bend the man to her will and make him into the one following her orders, rather than the other way around.<br/><br/>On the other hand, she was inclined to take him much more seriously, now...<br/><br/>"I'm rearranging the room out of purely aesthetic concerns, Master," she responded, once he gave her an opportunity to get a few questions answered. "So I'm afraid there won't be a 'we' in this task.  That said, there are a few tactical concerns that it seems important that we discuss, and I am certainly capable of talking and working at the same time.  First and foremost, just how bad is your eyesight?  Are you completely blind?"
