Joshua found himself in an abandoned warehouse owned by one of the mages Joshua knew. Looking around in the space he smiled. Focusing on the hand a piece of chalk appeared in it. He began drawing symbols around the ground. First a large circle fifteen meters in diameter, another circle inside this circle ten meters in diameter. On the edge of this symbol he began writing the actually symbols he would need to channel the skulls power through him. Once the symbols were finished he placed an even smaller symbol five meters away from the larger circle. This is where he would stand. Once it was all done the chalk disappeared and he surveyed his work. His hands glowed as he imbued the circles with magical energy, he couldn't have a these symbols erased not to mention it would allow the symbols to actually work.

Satisfied with his work he conjured a sofa for him to sit on and a smaller armchair for Arkan. "I don't suppose you're going to sit down but the chairs there for you if you want to sit."

Conjuring several more sofas for his guest to sit on he floated into the air. The warehouse was large but relatively empty with a only few broken crates and pallets that he would move later. Floating back down to the ground he activated the sigils for those that wanted to join him. The symbols would burn slightly and would tell the people who had them exactly where to go to get to his warehouse. 

"Now Arkan we just wait. I don't suppose you want to swap some war stories while we wait?"
