Himera The members of the council of elders walk into the small interview room one by one, making me shift slightly in my seat. I keep my eyes on the doorway, waiting for more people after the first four walk in, but nobody comes. I don't know whether I should offer a verbal greeting, bow, or kneel and roll over the floor to greet them. Their presence is intimidating. Elliot brought me here right after breakfast, and I've been waiting for ten minutes. Give or take. “Goo… Goodmorning,” I manage to say, glancing at the thick-faced man seated directly across from me before quickly dropping my eyes to the floor. “Goodmorning,” he replies, his face stiff and unreadable. Too stiff for my liking. Since nobody else returns my greeting, I go on to greet the man beside him, and the next, before bringing my gaze to the woman on his other side. They respond. My whole life, I thought females could never be members of the council of elders, but this board right here proves me wrong
