In the slowly fading light of the late afternoon, a large celebration had begun in a particular church of East City. With the high vaulted ceilings the talking of roughly fifty people echoed until it sounded like the chatter of hundreds. In the back of the church, close to the entrance a lone mat sat at a table sipping a glass of red wine, watching the revelry with a glint of amusement in his green eyes. Occasionally one of the party guests would walk over and ask if he was alright, to which he replied a very polite yes, explaining that he was waiting for his friend to arrive. People thought it odd, but not so odd that they continued to try and push him to leave the building, simply thinking him a slow person.
Watching the revelry once again Vores began to hum the current song being played by the ten man band in the far corner. It was a particularly lovely piece featuring heavy focus on the cello, which just happened to be Vores favorite instrument. Vores was rather thankful for it, otherwise he did not know if he would have been able to sit on the sidelines for this length of time.
Why bother with this guy, we were having a fine time on our own. We don't need him.
Turning to the voice to his left, Vores saw his friend Mors and found himself smiling even as he shook his head faintly in slight annoyance.
"I've told you Mors, our friend who sold us those landmines said that this guy has something big in the works. I'm curious as to what exactly it is, aren't you?"
At Vores' comment Mors merely frowned for a moment before finally sitting in the chair to Vores' left, finally joining the rest of the family that had desired to attend this meeting. Vores' group was four in total, with Mors, Markus, Charles and Vores attending the meeting while Altos stayed at their hotel room with Miles. Picking up his fork and knife Vores began to go through the process of eating with his friends, never once realizing that only his plate had food upon it. Chewing on a piece of potato Vores raised his gaze to the chair directly opposite of himself, the only chair in his mind that was vacant and the only chair in reality that was pulled out as if waiting for someone to seat themselves.
