Sitting in the room, her beauty seemed to be shining; it was accompanied by a regal aura, as anyone who saw her would have to kneel.

Saphrya glanced towards the darkness in the corner of this large room, then her gaze fell on the scroll in her hand.

Saphrya glanced at the black-cloaked figure kneeling in front of her, then looked back at the scroll: "Investigate the girl that Rayze is holding captive and... the girl's master."
