Minimal night staff hung about in the lobby and the two made it straight for the elevator without any interference. Clicking the up button Lynia found it easy to ignore the curious glances and assumptions as the humming tension of Nicholas' power quietly overlaid her own. One of his many talents seemed the innate ability to soothe most of those around him but he wouldn't be able to lower her anxiety tonight. once in the elevator she pressed the button to the seventh floor and when the doors remained opened she pressed the button an additional two times to help the piece of equipment get motivated.<br/><br/>Though he continued to smile ever so slightly her companion proved that his brain hadn't grown senile over the years by keeping quiet.<br/><br/>As the metal enclosure dinged upward Lynia took the time to pull out the crumpled up piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to him. "Have you ever seen any of these?" His traveling had been extensive and given Nicholas' long life he had been exposed to many artifacts and hieroglyphics no longer available to the modern world. "I recognize the Tree of Life, of course, and the Eye of Shiva but these two..." She pointed to the two icons she had been puzzling over, one twisted and braided much like a Celtic knot but in a pattern she didn't recognize and the other etched into the form of  broken arrow.<br/><br/>The doors chimed and opened on their floor and Lynia walked down to the room she had requested which nestled at the very end of the hall. Swiping the key card she entered and made damn sure she got in before Nick could demonstrate any more acts of chivalry. Going to the bar she pulled out two frosted beers and tossed one to her friend before popping the top off the bottle. Nothing like cold alcohol to remove the edge off of her anger.
