[Asher de Raye]

Asher let out a sharp nose exhale. Of course he would say that. Alright then, keep your secrets. She thought to herself, as the steam from her food wafted while it sat on the table, untouched. He left then, eager to catch up to his friend that snuck away without a word. She didn't turn around to watch him scuttle off, but she did hear them whispering to each other before the innkeep announced his departure. Asher waved her hand, still with her back facing him. And just like that, she was alone. 

She got up, having lost her appetite, and surveyed the empty room. Half of her wanted to snoop around, and the other half wanted to find out where those guys went. They had to have gone to wherever they were whispering about earlier, when she was spying on them. Asher wondered if she hadn't flaunted her titles if she woud've gotten more information. With a sigh she rose from her chair and walked to the front door, kicking it open with her foot and looking around at the emptiness outside. 

Come, Viríon. Have you seen where they went?

The farmhouse was in sight. Jexter had caught up with Nercy and was now hurriedly walking towards the unexpected.

He couldn't see anyone standing guard outside, so he was forced to knock on the door.

The door opened as quickly as it had been knocked on, and a familiar face stared right at them.

"Broost!" Jexter said, in his most cheerful sounding voice possible.

"Get in, and don't talk unless spoken too." Broost ordered, ushering them inside.

The two men found themselves inside of the farmhouse, surrounded by various criminals.

One of them was a particular interest however, as he stood out against the crowd. He wasn't wearing any tattoos, but he did wear a mask that had a smile that stretched ear to ear.

The man wearing it seemed quite unbothered by their presence. In fact, he barely looked at them before returning to whatever business he was attending to.

What business was that? Well, it was something about ruling the world...
