Noriko hadn't anticipated this, to actually meet with the Satrap for an audience. This could potentially end badly if she didn't play her cards right. The gang leader didn't know that much yet about the political interaction between the dragon-blooded houses and the Satrap in Gray Falls, so she would have to get a sense of the relationship her 'house' has in order to play her part convincingly.<br/><br/>She was in the Satrap's office far sooner than she would have liked, now actively thinking on her feet. No guards as far as she could tell in the fairly sparse room, though from the looks of things there were quite a few places where guards with bows could strike down any undesirables.<br/><br/>Approaching the Satrap's desk, Noriko hadn't really thought of a reason why she would actually be there outside of looking like she belonged there. She decides to give a blanket general response to the Satrap's comment. "Well you know how things are, just likes to make sure affairs are in order." To which the Satrap simply snorts and says what a good sense of humor he has in what could have been a sarcastic voice. From what she could tell then, it seemed they might have a good relationship, one that was good enough to be calling the other 'ass' in front of servants.<br/><br/>"As such, I'm here on my lord's behalf. He wishes to be updated on the current situation and would like to know where things stand."
