Varkasan was surprised when his name was mentioned. He was never told that he was being considered for candidacy into The Inquisition, and to hear it in the midst of a large crowd of Paladins gave him a small case of stage-fright. For a while he simply stood still, in silent surprise, until a Paladin from his group tapped the back of his head. "Cough it up, Trenact! Who did you bribe while our backs were turned?" the Paladin said with a chuckle. "No one. And I do not understand this either... I never considered myself eligible for such a position..." Varkasan replied. "Then perhaps you should have. You're moving fast, kid. You've only been with us for less than a year and the brass is already sizing you up." Aradus said.

"Argh... What is the meaning of this?! Varkasan Trenact, an Inquisitor? How did you of all people become a candidate for The Inquisitors before I? I've spent more years of service than he did, and we're from the same covenant!" Kagax said rather loudly. Aradus laughed. "It's not the time you spend, but how you spend it, Kagax. Perhaps he's simply spent it better than we have." He said, trying to calm him. Kagax simply grumbled to himself. He obviously wasn't pleased with this.

Varkasan was about to speak in reply to his comrades when he felt a hand on his shoulder. "Are you the one? The other candidate, Varkasan?" A voice said from behind him, it sounded slightly belligerent, but perhaps it was just him. Varkasan turned around and saw a large man standing there, wearing large plate armor and donning an impressive beard. Varkasan was about to say something, but Kagax beat him to it.

"Now who do you think you are?" The commanding Paladin said. "My name is Zander Parliah. The third candidate for the Inquisitor position. I'm just here to make notice of my competition..." The older Paladin replied. Kagax looked as if he was about to say something else, but was stopped mid-way by Aradus. Once he had the opportunity, Varkasan began speaking. "Yes, I am the other candidate for The Inquisitors. A pleasure to meet you, sir." Varkasan said, bowing his head in respect. "As Inquisitor Levran has said, I'm still rather new to the Paladin Order. But I'm a quick learner, and I shall do my best not to disappoint any expectations set for me." He continued as he looked up towards Zander, waiting to see if there was anything else he wished to say.
