As the Inquisitor spoke, Zander look around the vast group of paladins, probably thinking he could see one of the candidates. Zander's name was announced as one of the candidates from the inquisitor himself, Zander closed his eyes and looked down. Zander was proud of himself, but showing his self-praise would be make him seem like a jerk, so he thought. "My goal has just become a step away..." Zander managed to mutter to himself. The ceremony ended with the inquisitor sending everyone off to their commanding officers, but Zander hung around looking at the paladins disperse, watching as if he could spot the candidates without any information on them. It was just than that this method of standing around and looking helped when a slightly raspy voice bellowed from just behind him

."Argh...What is the meaning of this?! Varkasan Trenact, an Inquisitor?-" said a man standing behind him, Zander pivoted and scanned behind him as the voice carried on followed by a few gestures that indicated that the the other candidate was standing just a few feet away, just barely out of talking distance. Zander marched with haste as he bobbed and weaved his way through the oncoming trafic of paladins, finally making his way to the group with Varkasan Trenact in it. Zander cracked his neck lightly seconds before laying a hand on Varkasan's shoulder. "Are you the one? The other candidate, Varkasan?" Zander said with a slight sprinkle of hostility. This wasn't intentional, but Zander thought it made him more intimidating after the fact, which he liked. The same slightly raspy voice spoke just beside Zander, "Now who do you think you are?" 

"My name is Zander Parliah. The third candidate for the Inquisitor position. I'm just here to make notice of my competition..." Zander hadn't the slightest bit of nervousness n his voice, even when talking to a higher ranked paladin like Varkasans commanding officer. After he said that, It seemed that the officer became vex with Zander, luckily there was a second officer there aswell, probably second in command. This second officer stopped the Commanding officer from stepping towards Zander and seemed to calm him down a little. Zander showed his manners towards the other candidate after the tension cooled, letting him speak and introduce himself. 

"Yes, I am the other candidate for The Inquisitors. A pleasure to meet you, sir." Varkasan said, bowing his head. "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." Varkasan added. Zander sized Varkasan up and down, "Well, it aint no lie that your still fresh meat. Barely got scar on body."Zander continues," It's not everyday you get the opportunity to have the chance to help more...'Efficiently', in the purging of the magical practices." Zander had paused a moment and glanced at commanding officer before continuing," Especially when you don't have years of experience like these men." Zander gestured to the two high-ups in front of him. Zander was treading on dangerous grounds, indirectly insulting a paladin higher in rank than himself. Worst of all, It isn't even his superior, all the more reason to show respect, not the opposite. Zanders mood swung from sour to sweet in second, he looked back at Varaksan with a smirk," I've been a paladin nearly 10 years, and not once have I got an opportunity like this, I'm impressed. I could only imagine the skill you possess. May I enjoin you to be my ally? Maybe even embark on this quest as a team?" Zander wasn't planning anything tricky, except for wanting to see what he has to supass to become an inquisitor. Zander waited for an answer. He assume the young Paladin would decline because of the circumstances, but he waited anyways.
