[12:37] CC: Mahtah approaches the door to Merrow's quarters and gives a few polite knocks.

[12:38] AA: MERROW, WHO WAS NOT IN HIS CHAMBER AT ALL, COMES UP BEHIND MAHTAH LOOKING BEHIND HIM TO MAKE SURE NO ONE IS FOLLOWING HIM. HE ALMOST BOWLS INTO HER BEFORE NOTICING SHE'S THERE.

[12:38] AA: (( >_< ))

"Mister Niadis, sir. I would like to discuss a few things with you if I may have a moment of your time."
