KNOCK
The knuckles of a servant hammered against the wooden door of the guest chambers.
Given permission, the servant bowed upon entry, announcing that the administrators from Aurelia had arrived.
Auryn dismissed every attendant from the guest quarters leaving just him and Lyra alone in the space.
Lyra remained by the window, watching silently. She'd wanted to see how this worked. How he would build the networks that would make the Eastern Province his, eventually.
About a minute later. Two people walked into the chambers. The woman looked like she was in her early fifties. Gray strands of hair trailing down her rather eye-catching brunette weave. Her blue eyes glanced between Auryn and Lyra.
Helen.
She'd worked with Lord Wren in Aurelia and had a decent track record of loyalty that Auryn could bank on. Afterall Borin was the one that sent her here.
