Zero quietly schedules the event for tomorrow morning, at ten hundred hours. Lucille goes silent as you continue to lay in bed. Part of you wants to go and have a shower. Go and apologize for your outburst to Cephie, Emma, and William. But, to be honest, you're still not quite feeling up to it. It felt like an ambush. A sudden misdirection and attack at a moment when you were already vulnerable. You shake your head.
You end up staying in bed for most of the night, until Lucille informs you that the meeting is in an hour. Temptation strikes once again, as you ignore the time over and over again. In the end, you don't shower or change. Instead you drag yourself out of bed in full panoply and stride to the elevator.
You're late by about fifteen minutes.

Your councilors rise when you swing the double doors open and mount the staircase. You drop into your chair and set your helmet on the table, resting your head on your gloved hand. You do not tell them to take a seat, or dismiss them from their bow. Instead, you contemplate your copy of attendance with a dull, disinterested look. Emma is the first to take a seat, and the rest take a cue.
"I was told this was a council of war?" Isela questions, stretching out in her seat.
"Nah, you got it all wrong Isela. It's a chance for Pheonix to scowl at all of us!" William calls out, playfully, flashing you a grin you do not return.
A Crusader approaches your shoulder, a probe of willpower letting you know it's Cephie. The rest move towards her -- but you raise a hand as she slips off her helmet, revealing a young woman you don't recognize. She gently taps your willpower -- transmitting quiet concern, but doesn't speak.
