"Has anyone arrived for the trial or am I the first?" Eirin asked in a disinterested voice as she sat down on the couch and grabbed one of the goblets, the mage quickly getting to his feet and pouring wine. She was really desperate to have been the first to arrive and speak privately with some of the elders to secure support, but she had to maintain the image of a respectable elder.
'Pfft...!' Canan laughed at his performance, but Eirin ignored it.
"Yes, supreme elder. The elder of light, air and fire has already arrived and is in other rooms awaiting the start of the trial." The mage informed, pouring the wine and asking if she needed anything else.
