Wizards!

[Idan, my character was staying in the city with the other dancers, who have a close connection to Ibun. The dancers are part of the ritual somehow, as is Ibun. While staying with the dancers my character learned about Ibun and her whereabouts. I checked out her place and am now back at the dancers place underneath the palace.]

(ooo thanks Idan)

Your majesty, let me introduce the rest of our humble party.

First off, we have Lord Fenlander of the Elementals, you may remember his father, hailing from the once-humble feud of (insert name here-onia).

Next, please meet Uther the (great) unseen! He is quite the illusionist... Great (well, sometimes) company for a drink, knowsall the bar tricks.

Next off, my brother in time: please meet Andronicus the Wise. Ask about his thyme soup... but only when you have a lot of free time on your hands. He can see where some of the roads will lead as well.

Our dear Mordin, has already introduced himself. I personally admire his philanthropy.

And I, your Majesty, go as Verincent the Walker, I see the roads we have all taken to now.

And excuse me, your majesty, for my previous huddling with dear Mordin here. Something bugs me about the road he has taken, though I cannot tell exactly what it is...

And now, your majesty let me show our gratitude for your many hospitalities. One hears a lot about the King of Drakonia. We feel honored to be in your presence. But pray thee tell us, to what do we owe being benefited with such hospitalities?

As Vincent, leaving a tiny trail of blood from his toe, left the room, Agrippa made a saddened moan... the mahogany smell has weakened and his sanity has slowly returned to him.

Awakened, he noticed the strange trail of blood on the floor, and quite clearly lavish setting of the room. Not being bothered by the possible owners of the food, Agrippa fills up his stomach and decides to take a stroll around the building, mapping it out on a piece of cloth and making sure not to get noticed by the guards and not taking any unnecessary risks, at all times he wants to make sure that he can come back to the room with the strange blood trail. Mahogany is close, and the anticipation was making his heart race...

[Did Andon and NJ stop playing?]

[notjarvis]

No, but I really have nothing to add at the minute to my last post, want to see how the king reacts to Rav's questions etc.

Was waiting for Drakon to post so we can get back on track, and converse with the king (No pressure - if you are busy Drakon we can wait :-) )

[Drakon]

Sorry guys, but updates are going to have to come slower for awhile. Just restarted college and stuff.

[Raveen]

No worries, it'll run at whatever speed. I'm not going anywhere.

[Solarflux]

Indeed, no worries. RL always comes first.

[Idanmel]

Did you have to boot in safe mode?

[Drakon]

The King smiles with genuine warmth as he listens to Fenlander speak and bids him sit closest to him, a clear sign of favor and respect from one royal to another, and actually gets up to shake Mordin with both hands and great praise.

The King of Yang then makes some small talk. He is good company and you find yourself opening up to him. In good time, he tells you that it was not his decision to call the wizards of the west here in the first place, but his High Priestess Ibun's.

He reveals to you that he has invited you here to bear witness to the arrival of the All-Father. Every year, He descends upon the city of Yang to bestow his blessing upon the King's rule. The King has gone through this rite over thirty times. A goat is often sacrificed to the All-Father during this ritual.

You can ask him one question per person before the sun sets and you guys are finally ready to end the day.

Meanwhile, Agrippa drools underneath the table, waiting.. waiting..

R'rud meanwhile, is having the time of his life having all the giggling girls to himself. He managed to glean through the jiggling that the King is actually quite a friendly (and handsome) chap and probably just look to strengthening ties for the hell of it.

They do however concede that for Ibun to come up with the idea to be very strange as Ibun is actually a fierce isolationist and treats foreigners with suspicion. The girls seem to be really up for the ritual tomorrow night, throwing words like 'party' and 'fun' around. And as for 'helping' the visitors.. more giggling - they'll just have to wait until tonight..

[Raveen]

My Lord, is the All Father sacred to you? Would you be unfavourably disposed towards anyone who, for example, fought and captured him and took him off to a distant land? All purely hypothetical of course...

[Solarflux]

R'rud explains to the girls that change is a part of life. Sometimes people just change their mind. Perhaps Ibun has had a vision of sorts. Who knows with priestesses really? All those strange herbs and stuff really mess with peoples minds.

Also, R'rud suggests a pyjama party! Pillow fight!

[Drakon, I did post that Agrippa decided to look around the rooms and map it out (if he can)]

It seems to be a normal looking waiting room with suitable chairs and sofas and what nots. Before you is the door the Mahogany went through. Behind you is the door the Mahogany came in from.

The King's lips curl into a humoring smile and says, "well, the All-Father is like a God unto us, but I've never heard of anyone trying to attack it... it'll probably die a gruesome death."

[Idanmel]

Your majesty, is the All-Father a lonely god, or are there other creatures like him (preferably very small, like the kind you can raise as pets)?
