Yvocca rolls her eyes, crosses her arms over her chest, and waits.

Another line opens up, and people run to clammer into that one. The man who was in front of her is one of those many. He promptly loses his place, and ends up further away. He moans in dismay.
The line moves forward one, then the next is dealt with swiftly.

Yvocca tries very hard not to snigger at the people who end up in a longer line than they came from. She moves with the line, impatient to get at the front.

The next patron steps out of the way, concluding his business. The person at the checkstand beckons for Yvo to come closer. He was a fairly plain man, with neatly trimmed and very professional brown hair. He had green eyes. "Welcome to the Exchange, ma'am. Sorry about the wait. Busy day today. Trading, buying, or meeting? Can I interest you in some of our special tour packages, or are you a resident?"

Yvocca steps forward, trying to look as professional as possible.
"My name is Yvocca Shering, I work for Mr Satorius Trevain at the Seeker's Library and I am here to see Mr Alexander on a matter of business."

"Did you have an appointment, miss Shering?" The man asked politely. "I can ask if he has the free time, but usually you need an appointment to see Mr. Alexander."

"No, I don't. It would be profitable for him to see me soon, however."

"I'm sure, Miss Shering. However, he may make more profits seeing other people. Just to let you know, it is very possible that he will be too busy to see you right now." The man smiled very pleasantly. He didn't seem malicious about what he said at all, just honest. "Hopefully that won't be the case. Jir, please take the line while I take care of Miss Shering's request."
Another associate, a woman who seemed slightly out of place here, takes his seat as he stands and heads upstairs. Jir, as the man called her, looks up at Yvo and raises an eyebrow. Her hair color was hard to place, as it seemed to shift in the light. Her hairstyle was very... chaotic, with several curls brought into something that resembled a ponytail, one that followed the side of the head. Her hair seemed a bit like stone. "Shering. I knew a man who had that name."

Yvocca steps a little out of the line to wait for the man to return. She shrugs lightly at Jir, hoping to look more confident than she feels.
"I'm not him... I'll let you get on with business."
Jir- Jir...? Her thoughts are racing. Does she know a Jir? Does Dad know a Jir? From work, perhaps. He never really mentioned work.

"Hm." Jir turns her attention back to the line before her, apparently seeing it as more important at the moment.
It takes a few minutes, but eventually the man Yvo spoke with earlier comes back down the stairs and opens a small door on the side of the offices. The twitchy man Yvo saw earlier looks up, nervous. "Yvocca Shering. Alexander will see you now."

Yvo's heart skips a beat, or maybe two. She nods seriously and heads over to the opened door.

The twitchy man thrusts his hand into the air. He seems to be holding a small orb, one that is gathering sorcery to it in waves. "Die, Elf employing scum!" The man screamed, two seconds before he crumbled into a small pile of dust. The orb hovered a moment longer before its lights died. A man with black hair and cold blue eyes wrapped his hand around it. He examined it for a moment before crushing it.
The man with the glasses smiles at Yvocca and gestures for her to follow. He closes the door behind her. "Sorry about that."

Yvocca jumps a little at the man's rather pathetic attempt at an attack. She takes a few deep breaths.
"Do you get a lot of those?"

"We've had few. They've all been dealt with, and the attacks became far less frequent." The man said with a small smile. He walked up the stairs, tapping on the door when he reached it. A smooth and powerful voice bid them enter. "Are you ready to face Alexander?"

Yvocca nods and composes herself a little.
"Of course. Thank you."
