It was a little sore from the landing. To be honest, it was her first time rifting. Corvus thought she’d done pretty well, so she took the minor injury as nothing special. Her eyes moved about the room, looking up at the ceiling and down at the people around her. The joke she had made seemed to fall short, and she guessed that it was just because people were still getting their bearings. Other people began to arrive, looking either bewildered, unsure of themselves, or terrified. The different species of people in the room didn’t bother Haven at all. She was used to being in mixed-race hotels, clubs, parties, and anything else you could think of. It was just natural. Her interest was spiked when someone walked into the room, looking completely comfortable and at ease. He seemed to know much more than they did. [b]"Welcome everyone,"[/b] he said to them. Haven looked him over, wondering which Archon he was and how he had come to be their supposed leader. Corvus was interested in who he was, too. In fact, he wondered about the rest of the people in the room. [i]Can we trust them, Corvus?[/i] She asked, listening as Ian introduced himself and spoke about the temple. [color=Gold]”Of course, Haven. The Archons are my friends. Well, except for Thanatos. He is someone you do not want to mess with.”[/color] He told her, ending it in a nonchalant tone. Haven didn’t respond to him, ignoring his Captain Obvious attitude. [b]”I know this is all very strange and new. I don't entirely understand it myself. I'm just hoping Lupus and maybe the spirits of your Archons will be able to clarify what’s going on,”[/b] Ian continued, giving them all an attempt of a smile. She could tell that he was still adjusting to life here at the temple, so she could only guess that he hadn’t been here much longer than they had. Ian took his head in his hands and winced, as if he had a headache. [b] "I forgot to mention... Lupus says hello to all the new Archons and to all the Archons she has known for years.”[/b] [color=Gold]”Ah, Lupus. Archon of Gravity,”[/color] Corvus said with a reminiscing tone of voice. Haven watched Ian curiously, knowing that from Corvus’s tone, Lupus was a good friend. [i]Gravity, huh?[/i] She could practically sense Corvus smiling, no matter how intangible he was. [color=Gold]”Lupus was a good friend of mine. Let her know that I say hello.”[/color] Haven nodded slightly, even though she had no one to nod to but another soul trapped within her. Haven went to stand, but when the brunette girl started freaking out on him, she decided to just sit still and wait until things were calm and he could actually have a conversation. When the girl turned to look each of them in the eye, Haven found herself locking eyes with her for a second. Haven looked away. She knew that getting angry and yelling about this situation wasn’t going to help anything. To be honest, the first night that she’d been conscious with Corvus inside of her mind had been a whirlwind. Corvus had warned her against drinking again, but she’d ignored him and gotten drunk off of her ass. Then she proceeded to yell at Corvus while staring into a mirror so he could [i]see[/i] how upset she was about it. It’d been a horrible night, with a rough, hungover morning. All Haven knew was what Corvus knew. She was the Archon of Time, there was an Archon of Death named Thanatos that became evil and ate the Archon of Light, and they were all gathered here to train and defeat this Archon with a god complex. Aaand, that was basically it. [color=Gold]”I wonder which Archon she is…”[/color] Corvus thought. Haven scoffed softly and shrugged. She sighed, wishing she was back in the hotel room, listening to her music on the Bluetooth that she couldn’t bring along with her. This was all just a little too stressful right now, and she wasn’t even sure if the temple had a bar, or even a wine cooler. As the too-stressed girl was being confronted by the elvish girl, Haven looked through her bag, taking an inventory of what she had. Did this temple have bedrooms? Bathrooms? She assumed it was, since it was supposed to accommodate for all of the people gathering here. Especially food and water. She let out an anxious huff, setting her bag aside and hugging her knees to her chest. A few people left the room, seemingly as done with this little rendezvous as she was beginning to be. Corvus was paying close attention to who was which Archon. [color=Gold]”I encourage you to talk to everyone, eventually. You’ll need to get along and know each other well to work as a team.”[/color] Haven bit her lip, nodding again. [i]I will…[/i] For now, she just wanted to relax.
