Days after Michael's Ascendants had successfully brought down the terrorist group, after Michael had found the residual effects of battle against the Atharim, he was called upon by the Acendancy himself.
He would have preferred more time to investigate the peculiarities such as Aria's blade and the how the hell an Ijiraq had managed to infiltrate the Kremlin, but it was too dangerous to do so at this time.
The fact that he was not told of such an event, that he and his men were sent to deal with a lesser enemy proved troubling. Michael and his Ascendants could have subdued the attack with ease. The only conclusion to be reached was that Nikolai did not trust him. That spelled danger.
Nonetheless, Michael heeded the summons. Flanked by Rykovi and al'Shaddis, the two most loyal and powerful members, he approached the meeting room.
"Good day,"
he said to the Ascendancy's guards in a cool tone. "I have been summoned by the Ascendancy. Tell him Commander Vellas has arrived."

"She saw a flaring halo around his head, radiant in gold and blue. It shouted of glory and power to come"
"No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it."
