As Simon, Akaza, Sonya, Korran, and the two officials sat in Simon's room, a fourth presence appeared in front of Simon's room.
Everybody looked at the door.
Then a knock followed.
"Enter," Simon said after seeing Korran nod at him.
The door opened, and another Black Horn official entered the room.
The newcomer was a grey-skinned Prime Archfiend with thin black runes tattooed around his fingers. He carried a narrow case with both hands and swept his gaze across the room before giving a nod to Korran.
He placed the case on the table and opened it.
A black tablet rested within.
It was the length of Simon's forearm and looked like a section of a massive horn cut and polished flat. Silver metal covered its edges, while a horned beast's head had been carved near the bottom.
The rest of its surface was completely empty.
Despite its simple appearance, the tablet gave off a cold pressure that made Sonya's expression turn slightly serious.
