Dax the Eternal steped into the hallowed halls of discussion and looks
around with her hands on her hips.
*Hmmph, what a mess*
Dust was inches thick everywhere, chairs overset, the fire in the large
fireplace was out. The picture of the Vixen over the mantle, cobwebbed.
"Mundania, the halls have been overcome with mundania." She murmured to
herself. Only the dimmest of echoes of past conversations still remain
in the far halls. She wandered into the Library and finds that the
books haven't even been updated yet! They are behind by 5, 6? Maybe
more! She immediately conjured copies to update the Library shelves
with, sneezing delicately as her work disturbed the dust that had
settled here, as well.
She gracefully settled onto the arm of an over stuffed chair, too dirty
to actually sit in, and looked out the grimed windows into the grottos
and gardens outside. The hot tub had dead leaves floating lazily around
in the quiet breeze.
She stood decisively, shaking out her skirts, raising more puffs of dust.
"A party, that's what we need," she said to herself.
She pulled a tiny bell out of her hair and shook it. The tinkle started
small, but it continued to grow in volume and depth until it sounded
like being in the belfry of a church after a wedding. The wind
generated by the sound blew every bit of dust from the sills, scoured
the windows and sent the cobwebs flying in tiny tatters. Another tinkle
out the window, cleared the leaves from the hot tub. She smiled to
herself. Now things were being put to rights.
"Food, and people and music." She decided were next in line. She called
in her own Fey musicians to get things started, until some other
performers showed up. Then she sent out a 1000 butterflies with
invitations to the party. "Bring your own food to share!" it read,
"plenty of good conversation, music and friendship. Come back to the
Halls of Lackey. Open discussion starting with the Joust series. But
all others welcome.!"
She stood back, dusted her immaculate hands and smiled.
On Topic:
Who was your favorite character in the Joust series, and why?
