As she stepped into the Vanguard briefing room her ghost materialized next to her. Johns ghost did the same and floated to the table where it came to rest. John and Ivara sat at the end of the table across from the Vanguard who also took their seats.
"So you said you encountered an Ogre on Venus?" Ikora asked questioningly.
"Yes. It was very old. My scans indicate it was there around the time the tower was being built. It was also in a strange liquid." Ivara's ghost said for her.
Ivara decided she should leave her helmet on till the proper time. John had already taken his off and set it on the table. Cayde looked at her strangely from across the table occasionally as they talked.
"What's with the helmet?" Cayde finally asked
Her ghost let out a short warble that was its equivalent of a sigh before it spoke. "In the encounter she was knocked into the pool of liquid and it filled her helmet."
Ivara reaches up and slowly removed her helmet. Her black stained red hair fell out from her helmet like waves on a beach. She set the helmet on the table and look ahead to the Vanguard awaiting their judgment.
Ikora was silently and intently studying her eyes with her own, Zavala was attempting to assess whether she was a threat or not, and Cayde just stared at her with a confused expression.
Ikora stood and walked over to the young hunter and sat infront of her. She reached out a placed her hands on her cheeks and studied her eyes closer. Ivara couldn't help but feel awkward ring this close to one of the most respected and powerful members of the Tower.
"Hmm." Ikora said absentmindedly as she turned Ivara's head to the left and right, examining each eye as she did.
"Well I do not sense anything hubs about you. This is very different from what happened to Eris. I only see slightly physical change nothing more." Ikora said flatly.
Ivara let out a self contained sigh of relief. As the warlock vanguard pulled away from her and returned to the others.
"I am inclined to agree with Ikora. I do notes a threat to the City or the Tower." Zavala agreed.
"Well all I know is you're not evil, well unless you lose to Shaxx." Cayde said as usual focused on something else. "I bet a lot of glimmer to a lot of people." He murmured.
"So we're free to go?" Ivara asked in a respectful tone.
Ikora nodded and chuckled. "You might want to hurry. It's almost time for your match. We'll be watching guardian." She said with a smile.
Ivara smiled and stood up quickly. She was filled with excitement once again. "Thank you!" She called out as she rushed out the door, her ghost quickly following behind her. John stood and nodded his respects to the Vanguard before chasing after her.
The three Vanguard sat in silence for a moment before they spoke.
"Well, I think we made the right choice with them." Ikora said with a small smirk.
"I agree with that. Do you think they know?" Cayde asked
"I do not believe they do but if the should begin to have suspicions we will be front with them." Zavala said, contemplation pulled on his voice.
They room fell silent for a few moments. The silence was broken by Cayde standing and placing his hands on the table. He leaned forward onto his metal palms and smiled.
"Well if you'll excuse me, I have bets to collect." Cayde said as he walked to the door.
