The Bismarck meeting hall is closed to the public tonight as the Silver Ladder prepare to host yet another Consilium for the Magi of Sacramento. Tonight is meant to be informal, though there are many official matters that Truce is eager to discuss with the Council members. Some announcements are to be made, but it had been too short of notice to arrange for a more formal gathering.
A spread of foodstuffs lay out on a long table including fruit baskets, carrots and celery, buttered biscuits, cheese and crackers, deviled eggs, meatballs, shrimp and cocktail sauce, with an assortment of sugary pastries next to dispensers of iced tea, water, and a small keg of domestic beer.
Truce himself stands by the entryway, greeting those who arrive with simple and pleasant 'hellos' and 'good evenings'. For those members of the Council he asks that they be willing to have a word with him once they have settled in.
He wears a dark suit with a checkered shirt beneath and dark blue tie.
