The day of the discussion arrived.
Lucien gathered everyone inside one of Lootwell's most secure private chambers.
The administrators of the main branches were present.
Vivian sat with the western records before her. Seraphine was with her. Seran, Aurelia, and Deadman were here too. The other administrators sat with them.
Lilith and Eirene had returned from their assignments. The Celestials and representatives of the Lunarians occupied one side of the chamber, bringing with them records preserved from older eras.
Anvil-Horn had also been recalled.
The ancient beasts arrived soon afterward.
Astraea and the others had interrupted their training the moment they learned what the discussion concerned. None of them complained. They had lived through the Millennia War and understood better than most what a hostile Primordial authority could do.
The Grandmaster of the Obsidian Collegium arrived with the Abbess of the Silent Monastery of the Ninth Bell.
