Nicodemus stands, hands at his side and head inclined slightly. He looks momentarily meditative before he straightens his shoulders slightly and looks up at the approaching rider, a crooked, radiant smile crossing his face as he reaches for the crossbow slung at his waist.
Nicodemus converses cheerily with his new companions as they make their way across the briar- and rock-strewn wilderness, quick to laugh or joke and listening intently to what they say, although he shares little about himself.
Apologies for my infrequent posting; we've been a bit understaffed at work.
Nicodemus hurriedly skulks through the streets and alleys of Haugin's Ear darting between shadows and around corners, deftly avoiding notice of the wandering Hellknights until at last he arrives at the tower. He tips his wide-brimmed hat briefly to the guards as he passes, a gesture he manages to make look vaguely insolent, before continuing quickly on into the inner rooms. He doesn't bother to check the pocket watch beneath his heavy leather duster, he knows that he's late to the curious summons. He flashes a crooked smile to the woman as she speaks, and settles against the wall to listen as she explains the task. As she expounds upon the problems the faint smirk fades from his lips and a spark of anger flickers in his dark eyes. "Nicodemus, as requested, and my apologies for my lateness." he says, doffing his hat and bowing slightly to the Ilyssia before turning his attention to the others called to the tower.
