As Dante walked into the room he wasn't even given a chance to look around before he was almost flattened by another leader. Olivia, though, so it was with good intentions. "DANTE!" She almost screamed, drawing a lot of attention to themselves from the idle leaders. It seemed it hadn't got into an organised state yet while they waited for the other leaders to turn up and so were just chatting. "Dante! Oh my god is it true!? Is Kiera really gone?!" She asked with absolute despair. Dante coughed, trying not to show more agony for the fact that he was human as he looked to her. "Yes.. But it's probably best to announce that formerly, you know." Olivia nodded sadly as she looked to the ground. Her blond hair today was in ringlets. "I'm.. I'm sorry for your loss.." Dante rubbed his eyes and shook his head. "I'm fine."

*As soon as the girl went to move Alice was already going for the room below, but Moon was quick to grab her, "hold up it's fine..." She smiled, "Relax." Alice however just stared at donte, this moon girl was in charge according to her master, but she didn't really like it as she pulled herself away.
Meanwhile as all the other leaders were chatting Veria was basicly the only one fully sitting down with her face down looking at the table. If she could blush, she probably would have right now, she didn't know anyone here, she had no one to talk to other then donte, and she couldn't do that to better the situation. And so she felt even more out of place now, and remained quiet and to herself, she would not speak unless spoken too... at least thats what she kept telling herself.

Olivia suddenly sniffed. "Dante.. you smell kinda weird." Dante's eyes widened a little as his grip tightened on his documents. "Lets go sit down, shall we?" He offered but walked quickly to go and sit down next to Veira and whispered. "Sister do humans have a certain smell?" He glanced to her anxiously. As finally the last of the leaders came through the doors and they had a good chat they all started to settle down around in their places around the long rectangular table with a hush. There was a short silence as a lot of the leaders began to draw their attention to both Dante and Veira before one of the more experienced looking leaders stood up. "My friends of the summit," He began with a bellow. "Besides the clear reasoning behind this meeting, we of course have a couple of new members to welcome." The others seemed sceptical before he seemed to give a little glare, the leaders all seemed to perk up then. "Taking over our beloved Kiera's reign, mister Dante Yokai, first of his name. And a new addition to our numbers, representing the Demons, miss Veira Yokai." Dante gave a cautious however strong little nod as he heard his name mentioned. He swore he could hear the degrading thoughts of the other leaders as they stared at them both. All of the leaders there had been so so many other summits, he felt a little singled out. And they made it known. "On behalf of all of the summit I'd like to welcome you both. You'll find our relationships are just as paramount as your own with your people." He gave a small nod as he looked to the other leaders. "The first subject of discussion is the one we're all thinking about at the moment. Mister Dante's rise to the throne, and the downfall of blessed Kiera." Olivia nodded sadly, dragging a napkin across her eye.

*Veria also gave a nod, she was going to say thinkyou, but nothing seemed to come out. Meanwhile she answered dontes question in his head, "yes. Humans also have a short grey aura aswell that they cannot hide." She thought to him. She knew however she wasn't going to speak out for donte. He was first.
Meanwhile the large big man, Teo was leaning on one arm, "yes. There is alot going on that Keria was helping many of us with. Surly we should give you alittle time with what these things are and such. I however wish to encurage you kid. Sometimes things happen... but there's a first for everything." He nodded knowing the other leaders understood.

Dante seemed pretty dead to the world at the moment as fazed out as he was when he suddenly jumped himself back into the conversation. "Oh, yeah. Right.." He blinked rapidly. Olivia then seemed to jump in to save him. "Miss Kiera was helping my economy with the exports." Another leader nodded. "She was helping me rebuild my capital city after and attack." A few other leaders looked ready to fess up something that Kiera had done for them before the man who was still standing up seemed aggravated. "All right. We all understand that Kiera has done something for us one time or another." He sat back down to le himself be immersed back in with the others. "She was a kind and graceful woman. But we're not discussing Kiera right now. Dante, we're discussing your responsibilities." He glanced to him. "Do you understand all that you're taking on with Kiera's death?" Dante nodded very quickly and swallowed. "Yes.. Being the person she is.. she planned ahead and left me a lot of notes on how to work with it all." A sarky man leaning back in his chair at one of the corners of the table snickered. "Yeah, that sounds just like her." Dante nodded. "I know what I'm taking on." The first man nodded. "This is good to hear from someone so young. Kiera was no older than yourself when she first took the throne." He nodded then moved to look to Veira. "And how about you? Do you have an opinion? Everyone has a voice here, miss Yokai. That is something you must understand about this place. That is the purpose of this place."

*Veria gulped and tryed to speak up, "yes. My father also belive in donte, as do the rest of our family. As did my older sister..." she looked down, "forgive me i'm still not... used to talking with others... so important." She took a breath, "however along with my sister, donte, my father, I also agree with coexsistantce. And along with that, i belive it's time to try and offer both the world and my side, the Demons into such things aswell. I even have... a few ideas." She smiled, "I've been talking to my sister alot about such ideas aswell before she passed on. But i understand my placment is still to be." She figured she already spoke too much. DId she say too much and ruin it already?

The first man nodded with a small smile. "This is also pleasing to hear from someone we sought out to be so evil in the past. This is a good example of how much people can change." He laughed a little. "Veira, the summit knows that both what you did to protect Kiera and what you did out there in the ocean were both charades. Before we were to figure it out Kiera told us upright. We respected her courage to say that. And we respect the kindness you have for your family. For this reason we won't punish you nor your family for this deceit, as I'm sure you've all been punished a lot already." Dante seemed a little stunned. These leaders all knew that they'd been lying to them for years? And they still continued to trust them? This was the kind of friendship Kiera had built up with them? He didn't even know how to begin. "And it's quite all right, miss Veira. Everyone is a little jet-lagged in their first summit. Undoubtedly both your father and your sisters were at theirs." He shook his head. "But that's irrelevant." He looked back to her. "Are you willing to aid your brother if he needs help with leadership? There will be times I'm sure that he will need it."

*Veria smiled, "I've always been there to help keria and donte, and i'll always be there for them when they need me. However far as going as far to... you know use the family name fo the country and stuff, no. My father resttrinced me to such a thing. He stated planly that i was never to even touch that thrown... so i will be there for donte, and i'll support him, but i wont take it as far as to use my name and origen. I also stand for the demons however, and we already have been living with a few for a while now, including myself of course. SInce keria had already told you of me, even though she failed to mention that detail, I wish to perpose help to all the nations if possable. And... on a side note i'm sure if i ever did step out of line eve would end me, so i'll be carful." She giggled, "Right Donte?" SHe smiled. She felt better now.

Dante nodded with a small smile. "Yeah." A little of the uneasiness wore off but he felt there was still something off about the way he spoke to them. The man smiled. "Very well put, miss Yokai." He glanced to another leader with a little nod before looking back to Veira. "We'll be looking forward to further contributions from you." He glanced back to Dante. "Now as you may know mister Dante, Kiera never became queen because of two factors. Firstly, she married below her status. This is detrimental within monarchy rights. She married a homeless boy, not to bring the boy down I apologise. We know what he has done to help. But that does not betray his status. Only by marrying into the family did he gain some kind of status. But not enough to gain Kiera a true throne. The second reason being she did not even want the title by the end. She denied any loopholes that we offered as she wanted to share it with you. Now then, we've understood that Kiera never wanted that title specifically. She only came upon the protector of the realm. But is king something you strive for?" He asked with a little raise of his brow. Dante blinked surprised before he let out a little sigh. "Becoming king would make a lot of things a lot easier not only for me, but for a lot of the kingdom, too. I would hope to become king if I can. It's better for that title." The man nodded. "You will have to marry within royalty." Dante found himself blushing a little even though he tried his very hardest not to.

*Veria giggled, "he already has someone in mind however so dont start sending people to his front door." She winked to them. Now she felt more like she belong there. She nodded however with what they all said not pushing anything further. She didn't want to over do it, however she felt she could ramble forever if they let her.

The man laughed. "Oh I see. Is it a delicate situation?" Dante winced. "Something like that." The other man snickered again. "It's that Soflora chick, isn't it." He nodded. "Saw her at the ball. You flaunted her off like a show pony." The woman next to him hit his arm. "Walter! Give the kid a break." The man now identified as Walter laughed again. "Calm down Grace, I'm just playing. No ones speaking but them, its freaking me out." Walter leaned into the table. "You guys have never been this quiet." Olivia scowled. "We're listening to what Dante has to say." Walter raised an eyebrow. "Since when have I cared of what a newbie has to say?" Grace hit his arm again. "Jesus woman!" "Stop being so mean." Walter rolled his eyes and sat back. "Just breaking the kid in." Dante watched them all with a confused face as the first man spoke again. "It's fine Dante. As long as you know you have someone in mind. Is she royalty?" Dante nodded slowly. "Yes, sir." The man smiled again. "Then everything will be just fine."

*Veria smiled, "I hope to marry soon aswell. Even though it wont really mean anything. I cant just leave my brother out like this speaking about things he's touchy on now can I?" She giggled, "things are going to be so much... diffrent now... I just wonder how things are going to turn out." She nodded and opened her own file, "may I present somthing? I learned from keria give alittle information shows that am willing to trust others." It was either that or they would continue picking on donte. ANd she didn't like where it was going.

The man nodded. "Of course. What is it you'd like to present to us, Veira?" He asked graciously. Dante was only happy the subject had been taken off him. Thank god. They would have come in like vultures otherwise. Especially about Soflora. He didn't feel like he had the authority to talk back yet. Let alone the power. None of them had made the point that he was human yet. Oh that would be a fun conversation. A woman however on the other side of the table eyed Veira very carefully although shyly. Her long hazelnut hair came down at her sides in plaits and her bangs almost covered her eyes. If Kiera were there at the moment, she would have recognised the girl from the ball as someone she didn't know. Which was unusual for Kiera because she did make sure to make an effort for all of the leaders.

*Veira nodded* "Thankyou." She held up a file and sent it to the center of the table. "In attempt of all this... I come to realize that my world was the only one unaccessable. Therefor I have set up a way that ig ever, needed, or wanted by any leader, they can speak with me privently or over matters without the use of a full out summet. So this is the location of a place i created a small protal between the realm and this world. However i strongly advise none entire right now... i'm still working on some issues with people being able to come back..." She shied, "my point is to show that i'm avalable for now on." She gulped, okay she messed that up. But she was trying.

The man nodded. "This is great for further reference, Veira. We appreciate the effort you went into to set this up for us." Of course he was only speaking for himself and not the rest of the summit who looked mildly surprised. So far all they were was surprised by Veira. Not so much by Dante, but that was understandable. The boy was still a kid. "This will be of a lot of use to us. This may even be as good research into a connection we may bring to the angels world. There is even less known about them than there is of demons. We don't even know if they have a leader. They work much more privately. We hope to have some recognition with them." Walter rolled his eyes again. "When pigs fly, maybe." Olivia giggled. "That expression doesn't really work in this world Walter and you know it. I've seen a fair few flying pigs in my time." Walter sighed grumpily. "Then maybe the idea is more attainable than we thought." The man nodded. "The thought still stands. Thank you, Veira."
