Alicia had been deciding what to wear, thinking over each guest that arrived and ensuring that the correct seats for her guests size, notably [member="Mrrew"], were in position in the dinning hall as well as the food, drink and snacks that were laid there for all of them to see, eat and drink. When she was alerted to Azrael's arrival, she had the names of each guest that would be arriving, their companies and any guests that they were bringing alongside themselves.
She had one of her servants greet the Mandalorian, explaining that Alicia was too busy to greet him on the day and that on the second day of the Gathering, that is after the first day in which contained the hunt, the dinner and the after party, would be the day that they would get a chance to speak to one another.
The servant stated that in particular Azrael and his team were here to supervise the guests as they participated in the first event, in order to protect them from the wild natures of Sojourn; and anything after that was standard protection for the day.

Alicia approached Lady Apoleia with a smile on her face. She was correct in assumption that her Host will be meeting her in the event that they did not cross paths at "the Fort's" gateway. "Welcome to Sojourn, Lady Apoleia. I am Alicia Drey, the woman you spoke with over the holomails. I am so glad that you could make it. I'll be with you soon enough, but please, feel free to introduce and get to the know the rest of my guests." She gestured to the dinning hall where everyone had convened.

When Christian arrived at "the Fort" Alicia was waiting at the mouth of the castles gateway, after having met with Apoleia in the landing bay to the side of the building and introduced herself. When he made his order upon his first spoken words, she turned her gaze to the nearby servant and nodded her head for them to go and get it. When the servant left her side, her eyes turned back to Christian. "It's been a while, hasn't it Christian? I'm kinda surprised you came. After that night you upped and disappeared. Like it was all a dream."
She linked arms with him and turned into the building for the first time that night. "I missed your company, however fleeting it was on Coruscant and Kaas. We had a lot of fun together, especially on Coruscant. I'm hoping that you stick around because there is going to be more moments for fun if I have anything to do with it. It begins with the other people I have invited here Christian. Influential, powerful people from all walks of life ranging from the ends of business to the criminal underworld. I hope to use them for my upcoming schemes, which I will reveal to you on the second day of the Gathering."
They stopped at the dinning hall door. "I'd appreciate if you kept your knowledge of me being a Sith Lord a secret, for obvious reasons; and keep your own identity as one a secret as well to these people. As I said I will reveal everything to you on the second day because you're important to me Christian. Now, let's go inside and make ourselves known."

Together, Alicia and Christian slipped through the ajar door and into the dinning room. An elongated table had been laid with an assortment of food, drink and snacks for guests to enjoy as they waited for the rest of the guests and their host to arrive. She unlinked arms with her friend from Coruscant Undercity and smiled at each face, inviting for them to begin conversation whilst they waited for the others to come.

Alicia Drey was still waiting for three board members of Chandrila DataTech in the form of Ayumi Pallopides, Katagiri and Matsu Ike to arrive, as well as the CEO of Republic of Starcrest Alex Starcrest and the Governor of Filth himself. What a merry bunch they were.
