Meeting of Roses (1)
The head of the family wore a luxurious and decorated suit but had no mask… so we were all ready for the Meeting of Roses.
For what seemed to be hours, we walked down this stone spiral staircase that was dimly lit with everlasting red flames.
They never went out until we were entirely past them, and the only way I was able to figure this out was because of the sound of a gust of wind-pinching the ends of the torch.
"Oh yeah, we need codenames, don't we," Orme suddenly spoke up after about an hour or two of silence.
"We do? Then, what should mine be?" I asked the head of the family since I thought it was only proper to ask the big guy himself.
"I didn't bring up the topic because I didn't think it was necessary. You all shouldn't be talking unless you meet in one of the hallways right after the meeting, but I doubt that will happen because we're immediately leaving," The big boss responded.
