[Mini Event] just the way of things

The day Ashe was later for something might arrive sooner or later, but today was not that day. She sat entirely still in a darkened corner, moving ocassionally so she didn't vanish entirely, brilliant eyes watching each entering figure carefully. Her corner was positioned towards the front, facing the gathering people, and she had no desire to expose her abilities. It seemed quite a few wanted to understand more about that vile thing that clung to the Spire. The thought that maybe the naturals must have something to offer, but she could very well be wrong about that. If they had been in this place for generations and still hadn't defeated it, then maybe they they had nothing useful at all to contribute. Either way... at least the turnout was promising. Then again, there had been plenty of meetings full of bodies that went nowhere and accomplished nothing. Ronin's arrival had her at least hopeful that this would be different. It had to be - no petty politicians and bluebloods that couldn't have cared less about the dangers plaguing them.    Ashe cast her eyes up  at the still figure beside her. He might not have been able to literally vanish from sight, but he might as well have for how well he blended into stone and shadow. She stirred, uncrossing her arms and pushing off the wall with a glance at Kalt and a nod of her head. She hadn't spoken with him about the spire demon at length, not yet, but he knew enough to be interested and want to come with her. With that look, she moved forward until she stood nearby Ronin and off to the side, settling her eyes on him. Introductions later. She supposed having Kalt and Ronin meet was overdue, but now wasn't the time. Right now...    She didn't know Wessex and didn't comment, tucking the information away as she wondered at how exactly the demon killed her. Then Remi spoke up, talking about the gods... the voice? And.. Ludo. Ashe crossed her arms over her chest as she glanced at Kalt, jaw feathering before she returned her attention to the discussion. She had long since suspected that the spire held the key to their freedom. Time to fry up a demon. She glanced at Kalt once more before she looked at Edrei, eyes sparking as she looked back at Ronin. "It sure as hell got pissed at my lightning," Ashe added. "Whatever that thing is made up of burns like tinder." She could still smell it's burning body, see whatever that shit was inside it. A muscle feathered in her jaw. She could still see it's face as it spun and screeched at her through her lightning, razor teeth saturated in Ronin's blood. ashe Welcome to my darkness I've been here a while.
