But Khamja had invited them. Actually, Khamja had summoned them, from across the continents, to discuss a little problem Khamja had right now which was, inevitably, that one of its shadow members was currently in prison.
Khamja probably wasn't happy to see anyone right now.
She fell serious again as they approached the doors. Road could almost feel the magic crackle and fizzle in her hair and along her skin. It was like walking through a storm; there was a charge in the air if you knew how to feel it.
"They've called together everyone. There are going to be a lot of people here that don't like each other." There would, inevitably, be ones that worked at cross purposes to themselves. They had more than one Gotei Captain in their ranks, and more than one monster, too. Khamja wasn't a neat collective for the meeting of minds, it was a haphazard mishmash of people that found other people useful. It made for common enemies, and strange bedfellows.
"We might make some new friends," she added, perking up and giving Tyki a long look out of the corner of her eye.
She didn't have to tell Tyki to be careful of what he said. That was one thing she liked about Tyki more than any of the others. He was good at convincing others to like him, and he knew when to keep his mouth shut.
He was also good at cleaning up messes if he made any mistakes, or someone else did.
That and he was fun, unlike any of the others except the Earl himself. If Road needed a fake babysitter, she was glad it was Tyki.
The door opened for them without a fight. It was as if they'd been granted entry, rather than the door just being left unlocked.
