A figure moved through the sprawling expanse of Richard's mansion, escorted by a man wearing a butler's dress.
The figure, clad in a hooded cloak, moved with purpose. The confident strides and the tall stature made the few remaining people in the Stone's mansion turn to look at him.
Most of all, it was his masked face that attracted attention, as it didn't leave even to glimpse at the eyes.
Though that didn't mean he couldn't see. His eyes were taking in every detail of the place as he navigated through the labyrinth of rooms and corridors.
The butler brought the figure into a room that he called "the Master's Study room."
The man then announced the guest from the Nexthorn Vanguard guild and opened the door.
A massive oak desk dominated the study, its surface littered with papers and books.
A large bookshelf spanned one wall, filled with volumes of books that spoke volumes about the man who owned them.
