Serafina was silent for a while, and then she resumed her polite lady's look.
"Now, if you're done, can we get down to business?"
Everyone who heard her words sensed a hidden threat directed at Idan. Most of the people scoffed, but some were worried.
Idan did not react to Serafina's threat in any way. He had already made his guild's position clear, and now he did not want to engage in a verbal altercation with the old monster, realizing that he would most likely lose. Idan was not experienced in such matters and he was surprised at how calm he was surrounded by such influential personalities.
"Representatives of the Awakened Association, distinguished members of the Federation Council, heads of great houses, guild leaders, Awakened and all invited parties! Greetings!" said Serafina, returning to her seat with a soft smile. Her voice sounded confident and loud, so that everyone could understand the meaning of her words.
