Highlander's male voice blaring in his mind. He felt his mind scanning sense quit to his relief.
Trian eyed the High Council to get from the Highlander speaker loudly "Says we rescind order regarding Mindbender."
He kept the glare as the speaker spoke "Says anyhow Mindbender you're to show Trian where he's to go around here. He needs to see where he's to go despite going around as some blind fool."
Trian kept his mouth shut in response to the insulting remark of fool as the speaker continued speaking "Ramses, transport, Mindbender and Trian to the drinking room now."
Trian felt himself freed from Anubis's hold to find himself into the drinking room as it's called to hear Listener roaring noises.
He heard gibberish from Tom found himself translating "Cut the hissy fit Listeners. The High Council ordered us both to here via Meritanians' transportation."
Trian kept his mouth shut in response to lean against the bar ignoring Barry's stool he recalled from memory was seated next to the Highlander pair. He gave the Bartender a glare to find Tom copying him with the leaning and glare. Trian kept his mouth shut as the Bartender ignored his glare prepared drinks from machines into golden cups. He found himself handed a cup as Tom was the same. He sipped his drink finding it from the taste was milk and tasted good.
Trian recalled himself as the blind man "I was told to sip my drinks. No gulping no matter how thirsty I was."
He forced himself to take his time sipping the drink finding the Bartender giving him a glare with some Listener look of disgust on the face.
Trian spoke firmly knowing what the Listener was indicating, after pausing from sipping "I went around as a blind man with some gonoid acting as my eyes while serving the High Council."
He gave the Listener a glare who shrugged a Human gesture and walked towards his companions at the end of the bar. He ignored their chatter to tune it out while again sipping his drink seemingly lengthy.
Trian thought as he eyed Tom out of the corners' of his eyes pausing from sipping "This is going to take awhile for getting Tom to change his attitude. Hmph, I'll follow that order anyway. I don't have anything to do except simply follow that stinking order by the High Council. Anyway I'll do what it takes to get Tom to trash the High Council period. It's an oath I aim to keep."
Trian looked away and held up the cup in a salute gesture and then continued on sipping the drink hearing nothing in response to his thoughts.
The End
