He nodded, and allowed Tyra to introduce herself if she wanted. "I am Draiss, wandering archmage and sorcerer, among other things. The display was mostly to get the sultan's attention, otherwise I likely would have been bogged down by simpering human politics until even you had died from old age."<br/><br/>He took a sip as well, letting the blue take his time getting to the point of his visit. Coming out to inspect the intruding blue in his territory would make sense, but that would be for an underling to do, not himself. Something was on the blue's mind, something big, and Draiss wanted to know what it was, just like the blue probably wanted to know why an archmage had suddenly arrived.
