"Chief Arbitrator! Iam merely known as the Silver Shroud. Man of true, cold justice! Delivering the fist of the God-Emperor baton-shaped straight into the face of all those that looked into His gaze and betrayed him! I hope you to be a man of equal mind, and certainly shan't be found wanting." Taking the freedom, he walked up straight to this Archen Ternith person, shook his hand with his utmost strength and then sat down next to him. "May the Arbites never fail to enforce the Lex Imperialis upon all it's subjects, and even if we fail to follow it, for we shall be branded betrayers henceforth and find justice at the mercy of mankind's judge!" Takeshi hoped to make a straight-forward impression and emphasize the fact that nobody is safe from possible heresy, treason or other shapes of betrayal.
K'tikathat is mostly impressed how far he has got without people reacting to him or his xenoness. Usual reaction is mix of fear, simple-minded aggression on face of unknown and good old church seeded xenophobia. None of these people, including the rag-tag squad of weirdos he is traveling with currently, seem to pay any attention to his aliensy. K'tikathat is unsure how to handle such situation.
Bowing to all nobles present, Astra kept quiet, knowing that it was not her place to speak even as her face betrayed the need to do a proper noble introduction. Instead, in her function as a psychic meat-shield, she sat down as close to Alicia as the seatings allowed, and beamed at her mistress.
Pierce stood behind the inquisitor, The man he had talked to whispering under he breath he heard noting to tell the inquisitor later and that his own disguise was some what seen through only likely the part about being a hunter, As he came into the room he looked to the other three men in the room assessing what danger level they could be to the Inqusitor and how to eliminate them if he needed to engage. He stood behind the inquisitor keeping watch. "I shall stand for this." he said
Sedric smiles a hearty smile and takes another drag slowly puffing it out "thats good to hear governor i was in full hopes it would be good" as they walk into the main area Sedric crushes his cigar with his hands and drops it and once the go in their he shakes the arbiters hand "its always great to see the long arm of the emperor here to try and keep the streets clean" Sedric shakes the lionria hand "well greetings lady lionra it is a pleasure" and then sedric shook the cardinals hand "i hope you have continue to bless all the good people.of this city" Sedric makes eye contact with all of them as he greets then when we all take our seats i sit across lady lionria
"Good eve madam! " With a deep bow to the nobles' chosen liaison Boris shoots her a wink. Arm crossed over his chest a moment before straightening himself. " A pleasure to meet ye, an ye an ye an ye!" Gesturing to the rest of their poor target's entourage with a sly grin. "Boris 'Archibald' Markses presents himself. " Coming to parade rest he marched himself over to a middle seat, planting himself down somewhere that gave him equidistant range to the rest in the event of a sudden fire fight and would allow for maximum coverage. Considering they had an assassin in the room he wasn't terribly concerned by the blind spot behind him.
With everyone have taken their seats at the table, with a few notable reactions to the arrival of the retinue being the Silver Shroud getting a look of disapproval from Archen, who did not approve of the implication he would dare betray the Lex Imperialis for his own gain and Lady Ionria's appalled face at how casually a mere Guardsman addressed her, but Boris was more convincing in being someone the Highborn could respect. Yet it was Merius who took the cake for reacting poorly to someone in the retinue, as he leaped out of his seat, jamming his finger towards the and yelled "BY WHAT MADNESS DOES THAT XENOS HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXISIT, INQUSISITOR!?!?!" A firm glare by Alicia kept him from ranting further, but he took his seat again without hiding his disgust at Theanon's willingness to let the Alien live. At least the presences of an Space Marine who tolerated the Kroot prevented the Cardinal from trying to slay K'itkathat where he was in a burst of fanatical devotion. Still, the Governor then said "Well... I was going to ask about who was staying for the banquet, but the Inquisitor made that quite clear on the landing pad, so Hera, would you mind giving the Lord Astartes, the Tech Guardsman, the.... Assassin, in the coat and the Xeno a dataslate?" The Aide got up and handed the specified people, who would find that the slate had a basic map of Hive Vestera, with the Spire being more detailed than the Hive proper, which was okay if a little sketchy in parts but the map of the Underhive was so vague it was absolutely useless for navigation beyond "Here are the entrances to the Underhive, we can only map beyond this point if this dataslate is taken down there." Points of interest of note to the group such as the closest vehicle exit from the Hive (Located on the western outskirts of the main hive), the PDF offices for organising the occasional purge (Located in the Spire, next to the main Administratium offices), and the nearest entrance to the Underhive (Located in the northern section of the Hive, through a section marked as under Redemptionist control) were also marked on the map Once Hera had handed out the slates she sat down and Narthen then said "Well, another reason I called the meeting is so that everyone who actually cared about the Inquisition visiting Verdan Pirme knew who to lend their aid, and if there's any preparations of the Banquet hall that any of you would like like to make before it begins?" @GoreWrencha @Shadhunter @Colapse @torque @DeranVendar @Uriel1339 @Casavay @Vulpas @TechCaptain @High_Adept_Zeth
"Xeno has the right to exist because one of the Emperor's many fingers O the Holy Ordos hands has deemed it tolerable. " Boris quipped in response to the raving priest, a lunatic grin of admiration for his zeal flashed before he returned to making false eyes at the Noble woman, whatever game he was playing at a total mystery for the normally transparent guardsman.
He read his dataslate in silence, then continued to watch the proceedings. He recorded for records if nothing else. As he watch he made mental lists of poisons and flammable combinations.
The Silver Shroud simply remained silent, somewhat disappointed that nobody even actually said something, though he could see their disagreeing glances. "I have the requirement to visit a latrine, it appears that my digestive system as much as I desires to purge unclean elements. Could someone tell me the way?"
