Sirius Leads



A voice that seemed to come out of nowhere, projected itself very loudly as though broadcast through a public address system. It spoke several languages consecutively, including Angeloi, ending with a universal dialect that was plain enough for the Elves to comprehend. It went something like this:

"Daemon Man,
you have been summoned here for authentic scrutiny
that you may decide your value to Humanity, and its associated realms ...

"If it is found that you hold no great love for either Heaven or Earth, if you are no respecter of their destinies or have no care and concern, for their wellbeing then you will be freed of this district and sent hither to that sphere of another kind.

"It is with respectful sadness that we proceed.

"The Tribunal wishes you well.

"Go now, and follow Sirius as he will take you to each Appraiser to whom needs must you shall truthfully answer to."

The little dog had been lying upside down in Goober's lap, until hearing its name called. He sat upright and jumped into the air, sprinting over to where the very dazed Forsythe stood, greatly sobered.

The small animal tugged sharply on his pant's leg and then bounced down the stairs - Forsythe followed behind him obediently. He did not seem to recognise Nervina as he passed him by.

Sirius led him to the furthest of the judiciary, who had all been sitting motionless behind their veils, this entire time.
