"You may all rise."
His orders spread through the room and one by one they did as he commanded, looking him him until he gestured before they sat down. The 'guests' quietly sat as well, their place was provided at the front too.
Vale nodded in satisfaction. He had heard about the argument in the hall earlier, and the tower first reported to him when they sighted the flying ship of the Tachibana, and that was why he activated the formation.
He almost went up there to burn down there ship, but he retrained himself at the end. There was no need to go that extreme. Yet.
"Thank you all for coming." Vale began. "Today will be the last day of the Lord's council. After this, you are all free to go to your new territories and duties.
"If there's any issues. I will hear it now."
Obviously this was only a formality. Everything that needed to be said have already been tendered in the previous days, the only thing that's happening now is just Vale opening the day's event.
