The two-story salon that the letter directed Joshua to had an artistic styled sign across the entrance with the name Lotus. The location of the building, nestled on a walkway near other artistic stores. The lighting within the salon allowed one to see the space, yet was dim. When you move through the entranceway, a walk-in coat waited to accept coats and accessories was to the left. The next door led to a small room with a few seats along the wall, yet mostly open space. This space was where ghouls and proxies were sent while business was conducted. A small hallway with two locked doors led to an upstairs area, reserved for a small office area for managing the salon.
A man standing at 6 feet tall with an expensive haircut for his dark brown hair was waiting for Joshua by the coat check. The dark-haired man gave a deep nod to Joshua as he entered. He took Joshua’s coat and accessories that Joshua wished to check and turned to Joshua.
“I am Liam, the ghoul of Seneschal Jennifer Hazelton. Would you be so good as to follow me?”
Liam leads Joshua into a medium sized room, the second door in the Lotus salon. You pass a closed door to reach this door, and a hallway can be seen beside this room. Two large glass globes with small openings at the top were just before the door, creating a narrow walkway into the room. Within these globes, lotus flowers floated in clear water. When one arrived at the door to the room, one would pass a table with a white table cloth. There was a wooden display box with a glass viewing front set in a special stand on the table.
Within the display case was a single glittering pin. The pin was set apart on the bottom of the two lines, for it was a display. This pin was a braided gold design, the same as all of the other pins in designs. This pin on display was a glittering green emerald at the center. Jennifer was seated at the long business table that could seat six. As Liam and Joshua approach, Jennifer placed the report that she was reading aside.
She walked to a pleasant conversational distance to Joshua.
“May I present Seneschal Jennifer Hazelton, Priscus of the Nosferatu and Lady Notary of the First Estate.” Liam introduced. “Seneschal, Mr. Joshua Hernandez.”
“Mr. Hernandez.” A voice that slithered like a snake through dying autumn leaves pierced the air as Jennifer greeted Joshua with a professional smile.
Jennifer was Blushed. She had applied light make up, coral lipstick, light brown eyeshadow and eyeliner. She wore an asymetrical dress, the left shoulder was covered in a sleeve while the right was bare to expose her shoulder. A silk scarf in deep green was draped over her left shoulder and completely concealed the left side of her neck, pinned with a spider pin of emeralds and diamonds. Jennifer wore a single ring, one of chocolate diamonds and white diamonds.
