Before the Hand of Noxus (Close RP with Strength-prevails)
Night had fallen across the empire, casting a shadowy veil through the halls of the Noxian High Command. The vast corridor or blackened pillars was empty now that most of the officers had retired for the evening. Solitary lamps flickered against the walls as a lone figure in a red cloak quietly strolled towards the war rooms, searching for someone in particular.
Gisha was severely determined. That much was clearly evident in the methods she used to force an entry. Having scaled the structure, she entered through one of the higher windows under the cover of night in order to bypass any problematic security. There would be no prize tonight. There was no head to collect and no orders to execute. This was not a mission driven by money or business rivalries or mobster competition. Tonight was closure for a lifetime of hardship and uncertainty. It would be the culmination of years worth of searching and uncounted nightmares. Too long had Gisha suffered the agonizing memories of her childhood that no human should have been brought to witness. It was time to confront them. If this titan of a man was not the one she was looking for, then he was a close connection. Word had it, he would be working late tonight. Several Noxian record keepers would have a lot to answer for otherwise.
The mercenary quietly approached the the only illuminated war room. The tall door to the massive chamber had been left ajar for the last remaining occupant. She silently slipped through the crack to find the towering room inside. A large table map sat in the center of the chamber with chairs lining every side. Small lamps adorn the spaces between several enormous windows with thick red drapes. It was a grand chamber for grandiose meetings. How many campaigns had formed in these halls, she pondered. She could only guess as to how many lives had been trampled in the operations that originated here. Her attention was immediately drawn to the imposing Noxian General standing before the great table.
