Devaguea enjoyed his short break before diving right back into the work that had piled up while he was galivanting around the countryside.<br/><br/>His biggest contribution to Allison's research, after presenting the item, was to get the hell out of the way. He was damned good at combat magics, and leadership, but when it came to truly understanding and categorizing magics he was a rank amateur.<br/><br/>For the meeting, Devaguea was in his real form, and was the first to enter the meeting in the 'throne room,' despite it lacking a proper throne. He had brought paperwork, and was working his way through it, when the others started arriving. Sak'ba was first to arrive and took her position behind and to the side of his platform, then her two tauric compatriots took up their positions by the door. Nyrissa arrived just before the meeting, wearing one of the dresses rescued from the House at the Edge of Time, and Devaguea had to tear his eyes off of her to get his notes in order. Anke arrived escorting the Pathfinders, letting them see the various monster heads and trophies adorning the walls. The guards shut the door behind the Pathfinders, letting Anke sash-shay forward to sit at the table beside the dragon lord Nyrissa reclined.<br/><br/>Devaguea put aside his work, and nodded to his 'guests' as he waited for Anke to begin introductions.
