A Special Delivery
As you get settled in at the Inn of the Conquest's End, two ratfolk, dressed in fine suits, with all the noble graces one could find in clothing, enter the main dining room. One carries a small stack of envelopes, and after talking to the barmaid, they approach you. As they get closer you note that they are wearing small golden muzzles, adorned with diamonds. One counts out eight envelopes and hands them to you. Each has your name on it, with one marked for Heschen. The two ratfolk bow deeply, and scurry on their way, clearly having other items to deliver. As you examine the finely crafted envelope, you note that each is sealed with wax, bearing the mark of Grand Prince Stavian III.

Whoa... rainbow letter. How'd they DO that man?
ReplyDeleteThomas looks around the room at the Inn of Conquests End. Chad, bemused by rainbow illusion of the letter, gets Thomas thinking.
ReplyDelete"I know that most of you are not native Taldans. So I should warn you about a few customs at Taldan festivals such as this. How you dress is VERY important. Armor, even heavy armor, is not forbidden. BUT it must look nice; be polished with no dents, no scrapes, and definitely no blood stains. All manner of weapons are forbidden, save for ceremonial weapons due to represent a title, such as a military commander's sabre."
"Now, the plan is to make a good impression with the Prince. Let me warn you a few things about our 'beloved' Prince Stavian III. Custom is that you do NOT speak directly to the Prince, unless spoken to by the Prince himself first. But you should be warned that the good Prince is known to exhibit "quirky" behaviors. Rumors have it that he is prone to mood swings, so be prepared. However, many also have commented that he has a soft spot for adventures. This is most noted in the fact that he has a thirst for tales of daring and valor. Pretty much any story told of facing foes or discovering ancient treasures will win the ear of the Prince."
So, uh, where are we going to leave our stuff? I do NOT feel cool about going unarmed in the big city. There could be like, ninjas and stuff.
DeleteWould they totally freak out if I kept my hunting knife at least? It's just hangin out there on my belt.
