Shay opened his mouth to speak after knocking, before his actions were interrupted by the sudden creaking of the door opening before him. Stepping backwards, Shay was hoping he didn't interrupt anything by coming here so quickly. Suddenly, Shay could hear a small voice calling out to him after the initial knock.
"I will be there in a moment!"
Shay heard this, remaining silent for now. He didn't know why exactly he was doing this, as he usually would have had something to say, but with how this past day or two has been going, Shay wasn't sure if he could find the correct words for anything anymore. As the door opened fully, Shay had to look down slightly to see a somewhat small woman with brunette hair kept in place with a fancy black headband, although not wearing much else other than comfortable looking pajama-esque clothing.
She bowed, and immediately looked Shay in the eyes, to which he did the same. Shay was about to introduce himself, but to his surprise, she was the one who spoke first.
"My apologies for that. My name is Agnès Oblige. What business might I have with you, sir? Would you happen to be one of the King's men, perhaps?" Agnès introduced herself to Shay, stepping away from the door's entrance so that Shay could enter. Needless to say, Shay was pleased with how easily she seemed to get along with people.
Deciding it was his time to speak, Shay returned the bow himself, before responding back to Agnès and her questions. "My name is Shay Patrick Cormac, and you would be right about now being one of King Gilgamesh's men, but only about an hour ago did I start..."
Agnès tilted her head at the answer, continuing to listen. Before Shay could continue, he felt an itch at the neck of his clothing, and he noticed how much his outfit he had on seem to almost contradict everything he had said about being new. Scratching at his neck, Shay went on with his words.
"I apologize for any inconveniences I might have caused by barging in like this, but I hope I didn't cause to many. I had to look professional for the occasion, as I didn't get much time at all to speak with the King of this city... With that being said, there's something Gilgamesh wanted us to discuss, or do, for that matter. May I come in and sit down?" Putting emphasis on his last question, Shay looked at how interested Agnès looked at all of his words. Even though Shay couldn't help but feel strange about this whole situation, he didn't stop himself from smiling, although this time it looked a bit less menacing than it might have when Shay did the same with Gilgamesh.
Agnès nodded her head and quickly replied to Shay's request with a simple 'yes sir,' stepping aside more to make a point he was welcome, which Shay thought was unnecessary, but he enjoyed how obliging the girl was nonetheless. Shay raised an eyebrow slightly at the thought of the word "obliging," and then remembering her last name, almost chuckling at how fitting it was.
Letting Agnès sit wherever she may please, which happened to be a comfortable looking divan against the far end of the wall placed next to a window, with a nice view outside the palace. Sitting on the left side of Agnès, Shay clasped his hands together and explained what exactly he was here for. Leaning back on the cushions behind him, Shay looked over to Agnès, explaining why he was sent here.
"You might not like what the King requested us to do, but he suspected you might have been up for it, and he said I wasn't able to do this alone if I had messed up. To be able to join this 'New Babylon' fully, we're going to have to go about and accomplish the mission Gilgamesh held for us Primes... Which is to assassinate the Stormtrooper captain at Carrefore." Shay looked as gentle explaining this as he possibly could, suspecting nobody but him would really be up to this task. She didn't even know why exactly Shay was trying to join New Babylon, but instead of tooting his own horn, Shay figured he'd let Agnès ask any questions that she might have had now.
