Alex raises his glass in the air, I'd like to make a toast. To our host, Lady Poca! To our futures together, may they be filled with friendships and adventure! To Gaultheria! To Morrowind! To Strikehaven! Alex take his glass to his lips and dri
ks before sitting down again.

Comments:
Nein mulls over the implications of telepathic abilities and decides that they would come in handy in a variety of situations, like the present one, in which Johan is flirting mercilessly with a girl and doesn't notice the big green thing in his teeth. S
e then greets Gungadin, who has hphazardly attempted to take a seat across from her.

A few minutes pass, and eventually Gungadin enters the room with bandages and ice packs plastering his forhead, results of his latest run-in with another dangerously savage inanimate object. He grins impishly and waves to everyone, then makes his way
ver to an empty chair. He makes an attempt to sit down and nearly ends up on the floor. He tries again, albeit with greater success, and situates himself comfortably in the chair. He then shakes his head a few times and stands back up again. "Sorr
about that, everyone, I forgot to introduce myself. Uh... hi! My name's Gungadin. Uh... yeah, that's about it." He tries to sit down again and almost catches the edge of his chair... but not quite. Gungadin hits the ground with a resounding "thum
." "Uh... I'll be sitting down here for the rest of the meal, if anyone needs me..."

Grins weakly, and accepts a glass of tea from a maid...

Comments:
Again she laughs. "Ahhh, for those of you who do not prefer my choice of drinks, there is also tea, fresh milk, and a variety of fruit juices. However, I do not serve ale in Gaultheria. I hope this does not inconvenience anyone."

Takes a relatively large drink of this "Sprite", and looks surprised as he gulps it down...Gah! Could someone bring me a drink that's a tad more...sedentary? He looks vaguely sick...

| Name: Lady Poca |
Comments:
She laughs again. "Worry not, Nein. I hardly ever read thoughts except when asked to. But that one just sort of jumped into my mind from yours. Perhaps you have some telepathic abilities that you are not aware of..."
12/20/97 21:36:25
| Name: Nein |
Comments:
Nein nearly falls out of her chair in surprise and wonders how many other people have been reading her thoughts, and if so, whether they enjoyed the dirty ones. She looks about suspiciously, and the amused expressions on some faces make her even more cur
ous.
12/20/97 02:45:47
| Name: Lady Poca |
Comments:
She looks to Nein, reads her thoughts, and laughs. "I have my ways..."

| Name: Nein |
Comments:
Nein, too, raises her glass, and wonders exactly how Lady Poca has managed to get Sprite, since it isn't due to be invented for a few hundred years, but says nothing.

Comments:
Bows slightly, and raises his own glass...As Morrowind ambassador, I look forward to meeting all of you, and getting to know you as well as I possibly can. Sneaks a glance at Lisa with the last... Thank you for having us, Lady Poca.

| Name: Lady Poca |
Comments:
She stands at the head of the table. She picks up a glass of a strange clear liquid that you hear referred to as "Sprite" and she raises her glass in the air. "Welcome to Gaultheria everyone."

Comments:
The Nameless One, aka Gus, finally notices his hunger. Quickly, he eyes the banquet table. Although odd, he does seem to have some manners and waits for his hostess to be seated before he makes a move.

Comments:
Once Johan has left the room, she dissolves into giggles. Her Aunt looks at her, smiles, nods, and winks.

Comments:
That would be most pleasant...He waits until she's not looking, then pumps his fist in the air and hisses Yessss! and walks off to clean up for dinner...
12/18/97 21:23:45
| Name: Nein |
Comments:
She sees another familiar face and says, "Alex! How are you? You know me by another name, of course, but in this time, I am called Nein. I am pleased to meet you again. How is the Emperor? Is the Department of Redundancy Department doing well in my a
sence? I know I left quickly..." She gestures to Gungadin and says "I haven't had much time to talk to him- he's just been running away from me."

| Name: Miss Lisa |
Comments:
She laughs. "Hmmm... young women about your age... Well, I think there are a few pretty maids that would fit that description. However, if they're too busy to entertain you, there is an extra seat near me..." She winks and walks away, glanc
ng over her shoulder once to grin at him.

| Name: Johan |
Comments:
Well...as a diplomat, I far prefer getting to know new people at events like this than closeting myself with old companions...and as a still-young man, I prefer sitting next to ladies near my own age whenever possible...do you know of any?
12/18/97 13:01:39
| Name: Miss Lisa |
Comments:
She blushes. "Actually, it would appear that the maids have everything set up. And people are beginning to sit down. I think your friends are waiting for you. Perhaps you should join them..."

Comments:
Whispers backIt's not that I'm uncomfortable, it's that I'm hungry...not to mention that the ambassador in me is a bit nerved by having all these people around I don't know...Smiles slighty...Do you need any help setting up or anything? I s
arted out my apprenticeship busing table, so I won't drop anything...Smiles endearingly...

Comments:
Upon hearing the commotion from the hall, Alex rises to take a look. He glances at the figure lying on the floor and a spark or recognition enters his eyes. GUNGADIN! I heard that you left, I didn't know you were coming here. Why did he send you?
I mean, didn't the Emperor think I could handle diplomatic relations myself? Especially since I knew her before this? Or are you here for... other reasons? Alex walks over to his fallen friend and offers him a hand in getting up. Come, I smell fo
d. Let's us go and eat. Get to knoe these others better. I believe that they may have some interesting stories to tell, and that may give me some clues on some of those artifacts I was telling you about.

Comments:
She notices Johan's fidgeting and whispers in his ear, "If you're uncomfortable, I can show you to your room and have a maid bring up a tray. Or I can show you to the gardens. They're very nice tonight."

Enters the room from the direction of the main gate, and glances around at the new arrivals cooly...His steely eyes glint slightly, and he turns a bit darker grey as he listens to Arina's flute playing...then he smiles as he smells the incoming food...

Listens politely, but fidgets, as though he's wanting to be elsewhere...

| Name: Nein |
Comments:
"Pardon me, sir", Nein says to Johan, and she slaps Gungadin awake. "That wasn't a loan, you dolt, it was a gift. Now come on, and let's enjoy the feast." She leads a startled Gungadin to the table while explaining how it was all a simple misunderstand
ng to Johan. The whole experience seems strangely familiar to her...

| Name: Gus |
Comments:
Again, for a split second, the swordsman makes eye contact and again, he looks away. "Gus..." He says slowly. He stares off into the distance. "Gus... If you must call me something, I suppose gus will do, yes." He sighs. Poca can hear his stomach g
owl with hunger... He does not seem to notice.

Comments:
Raises an eyebrow and glances at Gungadin, then turns to Miss Lisa: Any way I can help? After I take care of HIM, that is...Walks over, picks up Gungadin easily, and sets him on a nearby couch...

| Name: Gungadin |
Comments:
Gungadin, after having finally been convinced that yes, he was at the
right place and no, his map wasn't wrong, he was simply reading it
upside-down, wanders into the Great Hall. He looks around at all the
people in the room, and gives out a low whistle. He then notices a
familiar, blonde-haired woman from across the room. Gungadin scratches his
head. He can't think of any particular reason as of WHY he should know
her... In fact, he can't even think of her name. Gungadin sits there
thinking for a while longer, then he finally notices the way she's dressed.
Not quite the same as the typical common dress, but rather... well...
different. Gungadin starts muttering to himself. "Well... perhaps
that's the Lady Poca that I've been sent to see." He takes two steps in
her general direction, then his terrified small mammal self-defense reflex
kicks in. His face turns white, and he quickly backs his way out of the
room. "Nein... it's NEIN! She's come to collect... I don't have the
money!" Gungadin whispers between gasping breaths. He swiftly makes his
way down the hall... constantly looking behind himself to make sure she's not following... and eventually runs straight into an opening door while his back is turned... A maid drops her tray and gasps. "Oh, my! Sir, are you all right?" Gungadi
mutters something incomprehensible, then decides that speaking involves too much spacial visualization and that he's
better off to drop to the floor...
