The archangel only smiles pleasantly, in reply to his first question. She sets up her pieces as well, having taken out a special set, for this fight; a set of majestically crafted archons and angels, with herself, with the seven members of her personal honor guard represented as the various unique pieces, in a full set of Mortality. She gestures politely to allow him the first move. "It is, after all, only polite to allow the master of the territory the opportunity to move first."<br/><br/>She plays a few moves, before answering his second question. "Am I not allowed to pay a visit to a friend?" she asks, still with that wicked smile that says she knows more than she's telling. "Aside from that, there have been rumors of unusual alliances being forged across the planes, as the weights of the balance shift ever so slightly. Part of my visit here is to ensure that the balance is corrected, ever so slightly."
