The Ivanov Clan

Mineah readied herself for another long day ahead. This time, she would be meeting with the Ivanov Clan. Taking a deep breath, she sat on her throne inside the throne hall while she waited for her new batch of guests.

"Announcing the arrival of Queen Mother Rania Ivanov." 

At the guard's declaration, Mineah smiled as she stood up and offered a court bow to her first guest. 

"Your Majesty," the Queen Mother greeted her with a polite bow.

"Mother, please rise and sit beside me," Mineah politely uttered. 

Without any prompting, the older woman followed, taking her seat beside her as they oversaw the throne room. Currently, the entire hall had been repurposed for this current visit. 

This time, they wouldn't be dining together for lunch. As the Ivanov Clan were all vampires with an appetite for pure blood, there were only a few small round tables arranged more for a courteous meeting as opposed to them being arranged for dining purposes.
