"Sir Alaric?"
The group turned. Marcus stood a respectful distance away, his posture straight, his expression warm. Sarah stood beside him, her face as unreadable as ever.
Emma tilted her head, looking at the two newcomers with polite curiosity. "I don't recall meeting you before. You are?"
"Marcus Miller. I work under Sylvine's guidance in the Second Sanctuary. We've recently joined the team."
Selene's brows rose slightly. Marcus Miller. She felt like the name was in some way familiar, but she couldn't quite place where she had heard of it. The connection just couldn't surface.
Emma's face lit up in recognition of Sylvine's name, "Ahh, you're working under Sylvine. I see. I see." She smiled. "Well, it's nice to meet you, Marcus. How can we help you? Do you need anything?"
Marcus shook his head. "Not at all. I simply wanted to come and pay my respects. It's not every day you find yourself in the presence of greatness."
