Once there Belara waited quietly at the door for a servant to notice  her.  When one finally did she asked them to bring nine plates of food so her staff may eat while she meets with the lord.  Only when their needs were seen to did she make her way to the dining hall.<br/><br/>The dark skinned dragon blooded saw rosy light radiating off of her as the magic of the door frame guided her to expend a mote of essence.  The aspect markings of a fire dragon became apparent on her as her face was lit form within by the gentle radiance of a softly glowing candle.<br/><br/>Belara was taken back to see others with marks of various exalts.  She recognized the aspect markings of the fire caste.  Mentors had explained a bit about the other aspects of dragon blooded like herself but she didn't know much else.  The others symbols are quite shocking.  All she really knew about those the Realm called Anathema were stories told in a drunken stupor.  Belara gave a bow to show respect to her host before taking a seat across from her fellow fire aspect.  Belara did not have much time to speak as she became distracted by plates of food placed in front of her.<br/>
