Demilich made sure to shoot the elf a brief look of annoyance before heading on in.  Anything further would be a waste of time, since the elven woman was likely to die a very horrible death in short order.<br/><br/>Inside the tower, a middle-aged man was hard at work, doing all the busy transcribing and other assorted bits of paperwork that undoubtedly came with his position.  It was very clear to her that the man was either completely deaf, or he was deliberately ignoring her, since it would have to have been very difficult indeed for him to miss hearing her banging away at the front door like she had been.  Given what the elf had told her...  Yep, he was cheekily ignoring her, even with her standing right in the room with him as she was.  There was only one real answer she could think of for that.<br/><br/><strong>"You know, if you continue to ignore me like this, I can make myself very annoying in very short order."</strong>
