"He's worried about you. He wants you here too."

"What would they do?"
--
She whimpers. "I'm sorry. I'll try to get back there soon."

"I'm not certain. She is a power after all. It is her right to do that."
----
"Should we come?"

"You will be meeting with three of the powers."

"Why not?"

"Three? How many are there in total?"
--
"Because he has to work. You could ask him."

"Anice and I will not be in the meeting. They worry we have a bias." Grin.

"I'll ask your father. Call tonight, please."

"Of course not!" He pauses before two very tall, black doors and lowers his voice. "You will be meeting with earth, air, and fire. The one you want to impress is air. She holds the most sway of those three. Ready?"
--
"I love you too."

"Will I be able to tell her from the others?"
--
"I'll talk to you later." She hangs up!

"Oh yes." He smiles and taps the door. It swings in. "After you."
---
Richard also hangs up and looks sad.
---
Edan looks up at Angie. "Is he mad?"

Nat enters!
--
Shy tilts her head at him. "She isn't coming back yet?"
--
"I think he's sad." She pouts.

Chane does not enter after. The doors slam shut behind Nathaniel.
He is in a very large, dark room. It is circular, with black floors, black walls, black ceiling. Several large chandeliers hang from the ceiling with many candles lit on them. No natural lighting here!
In the center of the room are chairs set in a half circle. They are high backed chairs, each with a symbol engraved on the backs. Only three of those chairs are occupied. One contains a short, stocky man with gray skin and entirely black eyes. Closer inspection would show that the skin is made of tiny rocks. He is bald, and is dressed in dark brown boots, brown pants and a large black coat over a tan shirt.
Next to him is a tall thin man with skin tinged pink, similar to the color a person could get from being in the sun a bit too long. He has dark black hair cut short and eyes that glow slightly in the dark room. He wears a long black leather coat over a suit.
The last person is tiny, about the height of two hands. She stands on the armrest of her chair and has long white hair and delicate wings. She is wearing a pretty, flowy blue dress.
They wait for Nat to approach.
---
Richard shakes his head. "Not yet."
--
"Oh."
