Aiden arrived at the palace and was escorted to the throne room. When the doors opened, he saw Lord Oberon seated on his throne with his captains assembled before him.
Thamoryn stood to the Lord's right, and Katherine was among the captains present.
They had clearly been in earlier discussions before Aiden's entrance. The atmosphere also felt tense and serious.
Aiden walked forward and bowed respectfully. "My Lord."
"Aiden," Oberon acknowledged with a nod.
Without wasting time, Oberon leaned forward slightly. "I'll get straight to the point. You're going to tell me everything you know about Dragonhold's captains and their magic, alongside any other mage whose magic capabilities are notable."
The captains turned their attention fully to Aiden, waiting. They had clearly been discussing this before he arrived.
Thamoryn also looked with Anticipation, as she had given Aiden prior notice that this was going to happen.
