The doors came open just as Xenon and Neveah returned to the front of the hall.
Verothrax strode into the hall, and he was accompanied by Ida, which was not surprising. Both seemed attached at the hip since the first moment Neveah had set eyes on them.
If nothing else, the sight eased Neveah, she had found it unsettling that Ida was so curious about her and her relationship with Xenon.
"This is no place for an outsider." Xenon stated crossly, he barely spared a glance to Ida before he fixed Verothrax with a glare.
Verothrax tilted his head to the side at Xenon's words. But glanced over at Ida, nodding slightly to her.
Ida retreated from the hall quietly and the doors went shut. Neveah stared at the doors for a moment, she waited until she heard Ida's footsteps retreating, only then did she return her attention to the group.
