For some odd reason, Penny was curious about the girl but with the girl's black luscious hair that covered her face, it made it impossible to look at her. Walking forward, Damien shook hands with the magistrate man.
"I have heard so much about you," the man said, his eyes sparkling, "We haven't met, I am Zenith Croogs."
"Evening, Mr. Croogs," Damien shook his hand before letting it go, "This is Councilwoman Vivian," he introduced Penny which made Penny wonder if this was another test.
The magistrate man stared at Penny, a slight curiosity in his eyes, "I thought councilwoman Vivian was on a break," the man reached his hand for Penny to take but she never took it. Instead, she bowed her head to let him know that she wasn't used to touching people.
Damien did tell that both the council members, Leonard and Vivian Carmichael were on vacation according to the letter and word from Nicholas Rune who looked after the land of Bonelake.
