Malkai smirked at the new development. [color=00a651]”So. From the frying pan into the fire huh? Hells… Why not.”[/color] It wasn’t as if Malkai could refuse the offer, and besides that, he had nothing better to do. He just wanted his money and leave. But if he was going to get roped into another conspiracy, may as well reap the benefits while he could. When the paper was eventually passed to him Malkai gave it his signature before laying back down into bed. [color=00a651]”Now if you don’t mind, take your meeting elsewhere. I’m going to rest.”[/color] Though awakened, Malkai’s body still needed time to recover from the stress of casting so many spells. And he was getting a bit annoyed that people keep barging into the room and bothering him. If he wasn’t so tired he’d cast Deeper Slumber on everyone here so he could get a good night’s rest. He was fairly certainly no one here was an elf… And that Drows don’t have an immunity to sleeping spells. Probably.

Veridis merely watched as the trio was browbeaten into servitude. He couldn't’ say he entirely agreed to Erika’s methods, though he understood that this was just standard procedure for Inquisitors. He still wished he could have perhaps given a chance to convince them willingly to cooperate, rather than making death threats if they didn’t. Loyalty isn’t earned through fear of alternatives after all. So for once, Veridis’s tongue was still, merely following along with Erika and Elleonora. Though he was somewhat surprised to see a halfling of all things participating in this vampire hunt. More so since she already seemed familiar with the Inquisitor. Veridis was a bit jealous.
