The constructs pause, before gesturing for them to follow them, one of the two behind jumping down and approaching openly, providing an official escort while the other two squads headed out to resume their normal patrols. The four constructs led the way to the lair, one heading on ahead to alert the guards at the base of the lair that guests were coming through. Once inside, Draiss met them personally, with the head drow matron of his harem, though she was more modestly dressed than she usually was, currently in a rather flattering skirt and small shirt that showed off a large amount of skin, rather than her usual loose loincloth and breast band, but since she was a psionist, armor and even clothing were really optional. He nodded to the leading female, not bothering to hide that he had picked her out at a distance, before leading the way to a darkened study, with only a single candle illuminating a desk in the corner, where apparently one of the drow had been reading before.<br/><br/>He moved as a drow would, placing his toe first rather than his heel like a normal human, and responding effortlessly and with complete accuracy to their drow sign, though he was slightly different, a little more flow in the movements, which would be interpreted as an 'accent' for the hand signs. The table was set for five, with soft but not confining or overly plush cushions rather than chairs, so they had enough resistance to get out immediately without being hampered, and he summoned up several light alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for them, before mixing several of the drinks in his glass, swirling them about for a moment, and then shooting the drink. All in all, enough to make all but the most paranoid drow feel their host was willing to entertain rather than kill them, and the lack of obvious and hidden guards likely proved it, though that Draiss practically burned with magic and the former matron was leaning against him and watching them like a predator would serve to reinforce the point that he was in charge of the situation. He kept the conversation they had had going during the walk up in drow hand sign, but started using elven at the same time. "So, what might I do for you?"<br/><br/>Though his drow sign was much more verbose question, the hand sign compression the language into a much more efficient communication.<em>My constructs informed me that you are here looking for drow, please elaborate as to why.</em>
