Hazel stared at the stairs with worry but she did not rush the meeting.

She knew it was necessary to satisfy her audience. This was going to decide her strength in the empire.

"You flatter me, count Habildon. But I am glad that you supported me. I will look forward to our alliance in the future." she smiled at the man who was already in his 50's. 

The eyes of the man shone and his chest swelled with pride as he nodded his head.

"I would be waiting for that day! For now, I wish goodbye. I am sure you had to deal with the aftermath of the decision." he stared at the council man staring at hazel every now and then and then bowed his head when hazel nodded.

She looked a bit exhausted but she talked to everyone personally either it was a warm conversation or a threatening one.
