Interesting Revelations

[teach_them_all]

It is dark outside the room, or the appearance of a room. Softly lit by no apparent source, two high-backed chairs face one other, one empty, one seating a beautiful young-looking woman dressed all in white.

There is no sound but the suggestion of silvery rain outside the wide arched windows.

Comments

A tall woman dressed in a severe bronze silk dress, quite high-necked. An imperious walk before sitting in the high-backed chair. A cup of wine appearing before her.

"Greetings, Lanfear."

Lanfear inclines her head graciously as silent lightning flickers outside.

"Mesaana. It has been a while, has it not?"

[teach_them_all]

Mesaana's face twisted slightly as she picked up the cup of wine, offering this gesture in place, perhaps, of a bow. Her crystalline voice was icy. She wanted little to do with the meddlesome Lanfear if it did not involve her downfall.

"Dispense with the pleasantries, Lanfear. Why did you want to meet with me?"

[nights_daughter]

A small smile brightens Lanfear's features further and she shakes her head very slightly. She does enjoy putting Mesaana on edge.

"Ishamael," she says, after smiling sweetly for a moment or two. "I wondered if you had noticed it too."

There is no love lost between them, whether he is responsible for Mesaana's recent setbacks or no, it is a safe enough question.
