As a member of the Abraxis Fondation, Asha Tusken is meant to up hold peace between humans and bugs alike. After a bloody war, everyone is hoping that peace can be kept and diplomatic meetings have been set up to do so.
However, Asha had noticed a d...
Silence hung in the air. The shock from the people in the room was obvious, it made the air thick, almost unbreathable. The 4th higher being... was tall, very tall. They towerd above all the other higher beings and they wore a long black robe that encompassed their figure perfectly and the top of the cloak flared out like fire. Through the gap in his cloak I saw a red shirt neatly ironed, adorned with a black tie and waistcoat.

His outfit was certainly more modern than the others. His head was all black with a rounded white heart shape in the middle that was around his eyes and oh my were his eyes the most captivating thing about him. They were large and a solid crimson, red colour that caught the light like jewels.
The higher beings made their way to the thrones and sat upon them. The meeting was in session. I examined the way they were all sitting. The white lady and the Pale King were sitting up straight, indicating they had respect for a matter such as this. The Radiance was slouched slightly and she seemed displeased about being here, I couldn't blame her, these meetings weren't the most exciting thing. As for the 4th higher being, Grimm, was leaning backing and sitting like anyone would upon a normal chair, he really didn't seem to care what became of this meeting. His expression, though very hard to read, showed me he was almost angry... I wonder why, mostly likely didn't want to be here so why come at all? Was it not by choice? Perhaps,but it would be over in a few hours and he could go back to whatever he usually does. He impatiently tapped his fingers on the throne armrest and had an empty stare that made me uncomfortable even though it wasn't directed at me.
The hours for me dragged out, I mostly tunned out what was being said since it didn't matter to me that much and stared out the window. It had gotten much darker than before, all I could see where black sihlloutes of buildings and trees with splashes of orange light here and there. My feet, legs and hips were all aching badly from standing still too long and my eyelids felt very heavy. When this was over I was going to sleep as soon as possible, the monotone voices of the people made me feel incredibly sleepy and dead inside. The whole time I could feel the 4th higher beings presence, it weighed down on me and I'm sure other people in the room could feel it but much to my delight the end of the meeting came quickly, I didn't really want to be here any longer than I had too. This kind of event was never my kind of thing, i wasn't one for political matters since they were so complicated so if I could help it I would avoid it.
People began to leave now but I myself couldn't just yet since I was essentially a guard, I had to see that everyone left safely. Though all my joints were stiff, I walked around making sure everyone was leaving accordingly along with the other guards. The last thing anyone wanted now would to have a commotion right now as we were leaving...
