[QUOTE="Mark Chance, post: 4393778, member: 2795"] Rufus nods as a guard opens the door into the tower. "I served in a mercenary company in the Shield Lands for a few years. I guess the regimentation never really leaves you." On the other side of the door is a short hall terminating in another door. Overhead, murder holes pierce the ceiling. Rufus knocks a complicated pattern of raps separated by pauses of differing lengths before pushing the other door open to reveal a spacious audience chamber that surely takes up most of the tower's first floor. Rich tapestries from diverse regions hang from the gray stone walls. [i]Everburning torches[/i] -- four total -- illuminate the room. An ornately carved wooden chair, highbacked with leather-covered cushions, sits on a slightly raised dais near the far wall. On the chair sits Burne. Burne is also an elderly human, thin and angular, with long graying hair pulled back into a ponytail. His slender moustaches droop to just past his chin. He is wearing simple breeches, a shirt, and vest, devoid of ornamentation but obviously made of high quality cloth. A large square table with five chairs sits in front of the dais. A silver tea service waits on the table. "Please," Burne says, "sit. Help yourself to some tea." [/QUOTE]
