*the man seems unphased by the threat*
If you insssist, you may call me ma'at. I have been on a long journey in search of meaning.
*algernon seems intrigued, maria on the other hand is still very tense*
so, where do you hail from Ma'at?
I have no origin, I am simply a wanderer in search of a greater purpose, my journey began in the sands of the east and has taken me here, to you.
*algernon seems confused by this*
To*cough* To me?
*Ma'at smiles enigmatially*
But of course, why else would I happen upon such a strange group of travelers if not by fate.

*holds his hands out wide*
I no not of who you are, you urchin I am truly just a traveller who wasss brought here by fate. as far asss magic, I simply follow the commands of the great unknown.
*as he says this some sand swirls around his palms*
*as they talk maria slowly draws her sword*
*algernon is to interested in the traveler to notice, suddenly the room has grown very quite, the men who were eating earlier are all standing including the hooded figure in the corner, the mens eyes are all glossy like they are not awake*
*they slowly approach the professors weapons drawn*

*ma'at, ignore ulrich and spins around to face the men his cloak twirling obscuring the view of him, suddenly he has a sword in each hand*
*the men all charge at ma'at, who dances in between each his blades turning to sand on each strike and suddenly only 3 seconds after standing all the men are on the ground knocked out the only one standing is the hooded figure*
*the figure speaks*
You may have interfered this time priest but they will not always have to to protect them.
*as soon as he finishes speaking shadows begin flying out of him and all around the room and then they are gone*
*Maria is standing now the runes on her sword glowing and a faint glowing field is shimmering around the group*

Sir, what should we do?
*maria still has her sword drawn*
*algernon is staring at the priest in interest*
I am not sure this man seems to be friendly I tu*cough* truly dont know.
*ma'at turns around after giving a small prayer to the downed men*
My appologies, I did not mean to cause such a disturbance, fate it seems had other plans who are you fellows? I would greatly like to know who fate has desided i should meet this evening.
We are just some traveling professors on our way to absolom.
*ma'at seems to be thinking it over*
Absolom, so fate truely would have me go to such a place. Tell me Sir have you ever seen one of these?
*he holds up a coin with a dried out and dead eye*

I cannot say that I was the one to destroy it this was done by one of my order but he died before he could tell anyone, fate did not desire us to find such a simple answer.
What do you know of this?

*algernon interjects*
Mr. Ma'at would you like to accompany us on this journey?
Ma'at: I see no reason not too, and it is obvious the sands have brought me to you.
*algernon nods*
Algernon: albion do you feel we should continue onward tonight I feel this place is not safe.
