You look skeptical and say, I wish my muse was a little more in shape. My
literary expertise leaves me wanting.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Well.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Better than muse.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, She never talks at all.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to a sprite bound in shadows, Do
you?

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

A sprite bound in shadows stares implacably about herself.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Look what I can do

A sprite bound in shadows sweeps across the floor, leaping and twirling like a
true master.

Valarien blinks.

You stick your tongue out at a sprite bound in shadows and wetly go,
Pffhhttt

The sprite can be barely recognized as shadows bind around its form, clinging
like a second skin.
A sprite bound in shadows looks relatively helpless.
She weighs about 2 pounds and 0 ounce(s).
She is loyal to Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane.
You see nothing in it.

The corners of Valarien's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.

You say, I can do that too.

You sweep across the floor, leaping and twirling like a true master.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Can't say I've ever seen you dance,
before

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Either one of you.

You smile impishly and say to a sprite bound in shadows, How about doing
something interesting?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Hmm, you should define
interesting .


You look about yourself, rubbing your chin thoughtfully.

You say, Drat.


You ponder the situation.

You say, I can't really think of anything interesting.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to a sprite bound in shadows, I can't
believe your first words in my presence were Look what I can do ....

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, All this time, and the first
noticeable thing you do is dance.

The sprite can be barely recognized as shadows bind around its form, clinging
like a second skin.
A sprite bound in shadows looks relatively helpless.

You say, Poor thing. It just wanted to be entertaining.

You pat a sprite bound in shadows in a friendly manner.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, It was, it was just... unexpected.

You say, It was.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane smiles and says, She's always been so
silent.

You say, Personally, I think she should have juggled.

Valarien ponders a sprite bound in shadows's profile, wondering if it would make
a suitable subject for a portrait.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, What would she juggle?

You purse your lips, deep in thought.

You say, I see your point.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, The girl's smaller than I am - I can
barely lift all these books I have to deal with.

You say, Well, if she wanted to be really edgy, she could have gouged out her
eyes and juggled them.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, ...h..er....a....
-
Valarien blinks.

You say, Well, I'm just saying.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to a sprite bound in shadows, She's
joking... I promise.. keep your eyes where they are.


You pat a sprite bound in shadows in a friendly manner.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sticks out his tongue and says, I'm
generally the only eye-less person about.

A sprite bound in shadows ponders Astraea's limbs with an obvious gaze, shifting
her outstretched hands up and down as if to act as balancing weights..

You give a horrified gasp.

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

You look resentfully at a sprite bound in shadows and pout with a vengeance.

You say, Your sprite is so chipper.

With your mighty index finger extended, you poke Valarien.

You say, Where'd you get her?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane smiles and says, Sprites usually are.
And... I don't know.. I've known her for ages, but like I said, she's rather
quiet.
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I don't even know her name

You stick out your tongue and say, Maybe mine is just defective.
You say, She's your sprite. She doesn't need a name.

You pet a sprite bound in shadows ingratiatingly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Oh, but all fae have names.

Valarien taps his nose knowingly.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Someone is defective, but s'not me, s'not
your fae, and s'not Master

A sprite bound in shadows nods her head sagely.


You peer at a sprite bound in shadows unscrupulously.

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.


You stomp about a bit, grumping vigorously.

You say, Fine then.

You say, What's your name, lil Ms. Sparkling Wit.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Name?

You say, Oh yes. Your name.

You say, You have one don't you?

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Yep

A sprite bound in shadows says, Bettathen'u.

You say, Quite the name.

Oooooooooh Valarien says, eyes wide with wonder.

You say, It does have a certain ring to it, I suppose.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, And a lovely one, at that.

You say, But I'm not defective.

You grouse resentfully and mutter to yourself about the unfairness of it all.
A sprite bound in shadows says, Try saying it It describes me perfectly.

A sprite bound in shadows nods her head sagely.

Valarien snickers softly to himself.

You say to Valarien, She's your sprite. You indulge her.

Glaring at Valarien, you prod him repeatedly, showing your frustration.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, You know, this brings to mind a
certain incident with a Slaugh I knew once.

You say, Someone's evading.

The corners of Valarien's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.

You ask Valarien, Well?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Well, what? You want me to say it?

You say, Oh not me, I don't care one way or the other.

You say, But her on the other hand.

You point accusingly at a sprite bound in shadows.

A cherubic smile comes over a sprite bound in shadows as she gazes around,
wide-eyed and innocent.

You say, Awwh, and so cute. You really must say it for her.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sticks out his tongue and says, You know,
I'm finding it quite difficult to resist, you really shouldn't tempt me.

You say, It was simply out of my hands.

You shrug helplessly.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, I bet he's forgotten it already.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to you, No, I remember - She's
Bettathen'u.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane stifles a laugh.

(This had taken place in the library, and at this point, someone brought in a ton of scholars)

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane smiles and says, Nice batch of Scholars,
Aeteras.

You say to Valarien, Do you really want to disappoint your little bitty
sprite?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I said it You just got distracted
by the hoard of scholars that young Aeteras brought to visit.

Oooooooooh you say, eyes wide with wonder.

You say, Well.

You say, Say it once more.

You say, For flavor.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Flavor, hm?

You nod your head sagely.

Valarien ponders the situation.

You say, In fact.

You say, You should sing it.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Oh, I have to sing, now?

You nudge Valarien suggestively.

You nod your head emphatically.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I don't have much of a voice for
that.

Aeteras leaves to the east.

A sprite bound in shadows plugs her ears with small fingers.

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, See what I mean?

You smile broadly and say, Your sprite doesn't have any faith in you, it
seems.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I think I tried around her, once -
It didn't end well.

You say, Is that so?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, No sense having faith in the damned,
you know.

You ask, You wouldn't even sing it, for little ol' me?

You flutter your eyelashes at Valarien.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane smiles and says, You'd thank me not to.

You say, You act like it would shatter the seals or something.

With your mighty index finger extended, you poke Valarien.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane gains a mysterious look and arches an
eyebrow, You never know...

Valarien cackles hellishly.

You stick out your tongue out and wetly go, Pffhhttt

You smile impishly and say to a sprite bound in shadows, What about you? Maybe
you should be singing. I mean. You're the one that started all this,
Bettathen'u.

You say, Not to mention. Your name brings to mind a few questions.

You raise an eyebrow at a sprite bound in shadows.


Valarien hums a happy tune.

You say, You're both incorrigible.

A sprite bound in shadows says, I like porridge.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Both? Goodness, what did I do?

You shake your head.
Valarien grins mischievously at a sprite bound in shadows.

You say, I'm still waiting for...someone...to sing.

You say, And I for one, will not be satisfied until they do.

You tap your foot with mild impatience.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, You know - Nothing's stopping you
from singing.

You say, Don't change the subject.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I didn't, there's still singing
involved - It's just you who's doing it.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, S'not over till the fat wench lets music
come forth from her lips
-
A sprite bound in shadows says, Start singing, lady.

You say, Oh har.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Aye, I think all fae have this
generally scathing wit going on.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sticks out his tongue and says, That
slaugh did a number on my ego.

You say, Uh huh.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, I'm not scathing

A cherubic smile comes over a sprite bound in shadows as she gazes around,
wide-eyed and innocent.
A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, I'm honest

You look skeptical and say, I'm sure.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Master likes to hug sheep.

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

Valarien peers about himself unscrupulously.

You ask, Does he now?
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, They're... fluffy.

You say, Mmhm..

You ask, And how many sheep would you say he hugs?

You say, Let's say..daily.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, This is going to go rather badly.

You smirk.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, I can't count that high Not enough fingers
n'toesies

You raise an eyebrow at Valarien.

You say, You know. This could all be forgotten to the annals of time, if you'd
just sing.

You nudge Valarien suggestively.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I'm not going to deafen my poor
sprite with my singing voice, or you for that matter, regardless of how
mischevious either of you get.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I don't even know what I'm supposed
to be singing.

You say, Make up a little ditty.

You say, Or maybe.

You say, Your sprite can make something up.

You say, For you.

You raise an eyebrow questioningly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, She -is- my muse... but she's also
been doing a horrible job for the past... when did I last write something?
twelve years?

You say, So then give her the chance to redeem herself.

You say, C'mooon.
You say, C'mooooooon.

Valarien peers about himself unscrupulously.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, Whaddya say? Care to make up a little
ditty for your sheep hugging Master?

A sprite bound in shadows looks about herself, rubbing her chin thoughtfully.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Once after a trip to the city, my Master and I
met an old bitty We bantered and bickered, but in the end, I was quicker, and
with that I now end my forced ditty. Aren't I quite witty?

A sprite bound in shadows winks knowingly.

The corners of your mouth turn up as you grin mischievously.

You urge Valarien onwards.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, ...I'm rather shocked she came up
with that so quickly.

You say, Maybe your muse wasn't as decrepit as you thought.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, You hear that? He thought you were all
washed up. A muse without talent.

Tsk, tsk, you say to Valarien as you waggle a finger at him.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, How can I determine anything
otherwise if she hasn't spoken in ages?
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane exclaims, And stop trying to turn things
against me

You snicker softly to yourself.

You say, What was it you said in that post? Quality over quantity.

You say, You better take advantage of her now while her snappy little mouth is
a-yappin'

You stick out your tongue and say, It's a simple request, my Prince.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Maybe to you.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Your voice sounds just fine.
You whine, Valariiieeeeen.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Did a window just shatter?

A sprite bound in shadows looks about herself, rubbing her chin thoughtfully.

You frown and say to a sprite bound in shadows, No.

You grouse resentfully and mutter to yourself about the unfairness of it all.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, Why don't you convince him to sing? He's
your master. That makes you responsible for him.

Valarien blinks.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, So that's how it works, hm?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane looks thoughtful and says, I never
knew....

You ask, How else would it work?

You say, We protect them, they make us look good. It's the Circle of Fae.

You nod your head sagely.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, The things I learn from you.

You tap your nose knowingly.
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Always teaching - Not even a Seer
and teaching.

The corners of Valarien's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.

You say, What can I say.

You say, I have a talent.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Oo, ooo.

A sprite bound in shadows says, I know what it is.

You say, Uh oh.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Making people run in the other direction

Valarien blinks.

You say, Maybe because I'm so beautiful, it's because they're going to empty
their bank accounts for me.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, So there.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Hmmm.

A sprite bound in shadows ponders your profile, wondering if it would make a
suitable subject for a portrait.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Nope.

You cough softly.

You say, Yeah... well...

You say, You ain't such a looker yourself, honey.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, I look just fine

A sprite bound in shadows strikes a pose.

A sprite bound in shadows sweeps across the floor, leaping and twirling like a
true master.

You say, Sure, sure. Whatever you have to tell yourself.
A sprite bound in shadows says, What is that? I couldn't hear you again over
the sound of howling.

You stick out your tongue out and wetly go, Pffhhttt

You have no further news to read.

You say, You're the one who can't dance You..clumsy..fae..thing.

You say, So there

You shake your head.

A sprite bound in shadows says, I danced just fine. Enough to get attention.
Don't be jealous.

Grrrrrr, you say.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Hmm.

Be right back Valarien cries.

You peer about yourself unscrupulously.

A sprite bound in shadows begins to follow you.

Valarien snickers softly to himself.

You say, Wait..what?

You say, Noo..don't leave me with...it.

l valarien

Most perplexing.

You give a pained sigh.

A sprite bound in shadows says, I did tell you what your talent was.

A sprite bound in shadows says, This proves it.

Your eyes widen in disbelief as you shout, Oh my GOD

You say, Yeah well.
You say, Damn.

A sprite bound in shadows raises her hand to her mouth and titters girlishly.

You say, Well My sprite is better than you.

You nod your head sagely.

You say, She doesn't even talk.

You say, She knows her manners.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Or, she was deafened by the howling.

You whine, You bequiiieeeet.

You say, I'll have you know that no one has ever complained about my voice.

l valarien
He is a nimble shadowcaster faeling and is rather small for his race, seeming to
be about the same size as an average pixie. Shockingly white hair falls from his
head down to his shoulders, having the habit of obscuring his features behind
snowy bangs. Shadows writhe and swirl about his skin as though they possessed
some sort of inner life, while deep ebony pools mark the locations where his
eyes should be, combining to form a stark contrast to his wintry locks. Though
his figure is hard to discern through the seething darkness about his form, a
lithe and well toned body can occasionally be glimpsed from within the gloom.
Jutting forth from his back are two atramentous wings, mildly reminiscent of a
butterfly, though somehow more brutal and tattered. Seemingly composed of onyx,
they cast strange swirls of color amongst themselves as they subtley reflect the
light around him. He is wearing a rose drop earring through his right ear, a
sapphire threaded earring through his right ear, a hoop of silver and sapphire
through his upper lip, a starry dragon brooch, a bracelet of silver webs, a
silver eyebrow hoop set with a ruby through his right eyebrow, a silver eyebrow
hoop set with a ruby through his left eyebrow, a dark forestal scabbard, a
sapphire stud through his tongue, a small diamond lotus-shaped earring through
his left ear, an onyx teardrop earring through his left ear, a ravenwood stud
through his right ear, a butterfly-shaped stud through his right ear, an onyx
spider web stud through his left ear, a garnet spider-shaped stud through his
left ear, a platinum chain stud through his left ear, a golden hoop inlaid with
garnet through his lower lip, a skull shaped stud through his labret, a deep
purple ring of ravenwood, a delicate silver spider web brooch, silvery robes of
fine spider silk, a platinum star choker, a broom-shaped brooch of platinum, a
silver ring set with an oval ruby, a wreath of midnight black roses, and a
silver torc.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Did a glass just shatter? My juice....

You say to Valarien, Finally You're back Make it shoo. Make it shoo.

You stamp your foot on the ground and begin to spout vehemently.

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

You exclaim, Valarien

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Having problems?

You sadly say, It's being mean at me.

You cross your arms on your chest, stick out your lower lip, and pout.

You hear a rustling and turn to see Diamante emerging from the undergrowth.

Oops Diamante exclaims with a bashful expression.
Diamante vanishes before your eyes, scattered by the forest breeze.

Valarien blinks.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Look, another one ran away.

Your eyes widen in disbelief as you shout, Oh my GOD

Valarien blinks.

Valarien hops about madly.

You say to Valarien, Spank your sprite.

You say, It's being bad.

Valarien ponders for a moment and says Hrm...

You say, You have to show it who's the Master and who's the uppity sprite.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I think that violates some sort of
fae-law.

You say, It's only a little spanking.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Thou shalt not spank thy fae, or
some such.

Pah you say with disgust.

Valarien shrugs helplessly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, What can I do, it's the law.

You say, You.

You say, Still.

You say, Haven't.

You say, Sung

You say, The things I have to put up with.

You say, Evilly rude fae.

You say, Who have suspiciously rude names.

A sprite bound in shadows hums innocently to herself.

You say, Uh huh.

You say, And non-singing Princes. Who are unwilling to discipline bad little
sprites.

You shake your head.

Valarien pets a sprite bound in shadows ingratiatingly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I haven't sung... well, almost
never.

You say, If you don't sing right this instant.

A sprite bound in shadows says, She'll howl instead.

Valarien tilts his head and listens intently.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Wait....

You whine, Valariiieeen

You whine, Discipline it

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

You say, I'm serious.

You say, You do it - sing and discipline the bad thing- or..or..I will...

You say, Tell Queen Shayle.

You nod your head sagely.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane smiles with a wink and says to a sprite
bound in shadows, Ok, ok - I've been keeping score, and you're certainly on
top. Don't make me send you back home, now.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Wait, what would the Queen do about
it?

Finger extended, Valarien pokes you.
.
You say, She would of course...

You say, Tell you to sing.

You say, Yes. That is it.

You say, So you should sing.

You say, Because that's what Queen Shayle would want.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, Agree with me.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Howling or imminent death through vocalization
in a choral tone?

A sprite bound in shadows says, Hmmm.

You say to Valarien, Bad upbringing, that's what happened to this one.


You say to Valarien, Too much frolicking, I bet that's what did it.

Valarien's eyes sparkle with amusement.

You say, Valarien.

You say, I am getting frustrated with you.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Honestly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I don't sing.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, It'd take something amazing.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Outstanding.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, And possibly alcoholic.

You say, And plus I mean...the sprite. It made up a song just for you to
sing.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, To make me sing.

You say, You're sprite talking for the first time in decades isn't amazing?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Not enough to have me kill her by
singing.

You say, I mean, I would have thought something was wrong with it by now.

A sprite bound in shadows says, You were making enough noise for the both of
us.

You say, Okay then. How about this.

You grumble angrily.

You say, As I was saying.


You say, How about this.

You say to Valarien, If you don't want to sing.

You say, Tap dance while she sings.
You point accusingly at a sprite bound in shadows.

You say, Since we both have SUCH horrible voices.

You say, You can sing.

You say to Valarien, And you can tap dance to it.

You ask, Well?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, ...I don't have tap shoes.
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I don't have any shoes, in fact.
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane wiggles his toes.

You say, Well uhh.

You say, How about interpretive dance then?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, You're really reaching, you know
that?

You say, Well it wouldn't be necessary if soooomeeeeooone would sing.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, ...

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sings, La.
Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Tere.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Done.

You say, That doesn't count.

You see a sprite bound in shadows yell, Oh Gods, the pain

Valarien blinks incredulously at a sprite bound in shadows.

You say, Oh great.

(Glomdoring): Moralis says, What the.

Valarien sniffles softly.

(Glomdoring): You say, Ignore her.

(Glomdoring): You say, Valarien has a silly sprite.

Diamante gives Valarien the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.

Valarien snuffles softly at a sprite bound in shadows.

You ask a sprite bound in shadows, See what you've done, Missy?

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Is my singing voice really that
bad?

Diamante raises an eyebrow at a sprite bound in shadows.

You say, Now you definitely need to spank her.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, For the last time, I'm not spanking
my sprite

A sprite bound in shadows says, I wonder how long it'll take them to run away
from you again.

Your eyes widen in disbelief as you shout, Oh my GOD

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Such is your curse

Diamante looks about himself, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

Diamante reaches over and spanks a sprite bound in shadows firmly on her bum.

Shh says Diamante, putting a finger to his lips.
Woot you shout excitedly.

A sprite bound in shadows pinches Diamante on his behind, obviously testing for
firmness.

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

Diamante raises an eyebrow at a sprite bound in shadows.

You say, Fiesty thing, isn't she.

Diamante grins and nods.

Diamante licks his lips.

You say to Valarien, Just sing the ditty.

You say, Seriously.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, I'm not singing.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, The end

You say, No the end

Diamante begins to sing an enchanting song.
(His fae come really spammily in)

You put your hand to your forehead and swoon.
A sprite bound in shadows says, Anything to mask the noise of shattering glass,
niii?

You wail at a sprite bound in shadows like an old woman.

Valarien sings out 'Tra la la la la' happily.

Valarien gives a pooka bound in shadows the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to a pooka bound in shadows, Not you,
too

Valarien inches bashfully over to a sprite bound in shadows and nuzzles her
tenderly.

You say, See Multiple fae want you to sing.

You say, That synches it.

You say, Sing.

Valarien pokes a sprite bound in shadows in the belly.

You say, She made up a ditty for you.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, You people are horrible.

You say, You have to sing it.

A leprechaun bound in shadows says, Did anyone else hear a howl, just now?

A leprechaun bound in shadows scratches his head in confusion.

You say to a leprechaun bound in shadows, You shut up.

Valarien rolls on the floor, laughing.

A sprite bound in shadows says, She's sensitive about it.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

p leprechaun

The leprechaun can be barely recognized as shadows bind around its form,
clinging like a second skin.
A leprechaun bound in shadows does not look particularly dangerous.
He weighs about 56 pounds.
He is loyal to Diamante Stillwind, Night's Whisper.
You see nothing in it.

Ha you exclaim to a pooka bound in shadows with gusto.
A wry smile spreads across a pooka bound in shadows's face.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You say, My nymph will save me.

You pet a nymph bound in shadows ingratiatingly.
A nymph bound in shadows skips merrily.

Spreading his arms wide, Valarien spins clockwise and a shimmering white orb
springs up around him.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You give a leprechaun bound in shadows a peck on the cheek.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You peer about yourself unscrupulously.

You say to a pooka bound in shadows, No more making me give unruly fae kisses.

A leprechaun bound in shadows waggles his eyebrows suggestively at you.

Ugh , you say in disgust.

Valarien utters a deep, rumbling laugh.

You say to a leprechaun bound in shadows, I'd rather do the sprite.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Oh, the horror.

Valarien whistles appreciatively.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Master, may I prove her talent, too?

You say, Bleeeeh.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You give a sprite bound in shadows a peck on the cheek.

Diamante nods his head at a sprite bound in shadows.

You peer at a pooka bound in shadows unscrupulously.

Diamante purses his lips pensively, gazing off into the distance as he carefully
gathers his thoughts.

Valarien's eyes sparkle with amusement.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, Psh. You can run away if you want. But
you know. I'm still prettier than you.

Diamante looks about himself, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

A sprite bound in shadows says, And dogs rain from the sky.

You say, And take the skeezy leprechaun with you, seriously.

You say, You never know

Diamante looks about himself, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

Diamante flashes a sprite bound in shadows a joyous smile.

You mutter, I'm SO prettier than the sprite thing.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Well, you could go climb a cliff and jump off,
I guess.

A sprite bound in shadows ponders the situation.

You say, After you.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Ok, ok you two.

Diamante peers about himself unscrupulously.

Valarien peers at a sprite bound in shadows unscrupulously.
Valarien peers at you unscrupulously.

You brandish your fists defiantly.

You say, I can take her.

You say, Dun worry.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, You better run before I do.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

A sprite bound in shadows says, What? Aroo aroo? Roo roof roof?

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a

Tears fill A sprite bound in shadows's eyes and begin to slowly run down her
face.

Grrrrrr, you say.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.


You stamp your foot on the ground and begin to spout vehemently.
You stamp your foot on the ground and begin to spout vehemently.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sticks out his tongue and says, Ok, best
send you home before some real trouble starts.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You gather a sprite bound in shadows in your arms and softly murmur, It's
alright.

Ugh , you say in disgust to a pooka bound in shadows.

You say, BAD POOKA.

You reach over and spank a pooka bound in shadows firmly on his bum.

A sprite bound in shadows gives a pooka bound in shadows a wild cheer
You say, Hey You be good. Or..

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You say, We'll give you to Serenwilde.

Valarien begins to sing an enchanting song.
A sprite bound in shadows turns to pay attention to the song and comes forward
to follow.

You say, There, how about that.

Valarien nods his head sagely.

Diamante shouts Oi at the top of his voice.

A cherubic smile comes over a sprite bound in shadows as she gazes around,
wide-eyed and innocent.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You shed Shadowcaster faeling form and flow as a spirit through the verdant
leaves, embracing the physical once more and arrive at before the Master
Ravenwood Tree.

You shed Shadowcaster faeling form and flow as a spirit through the verdant
leaves, embracing the physical once more and arrive at arcane library.
Arcane library.

Your eyes widen in disbelief as you shout, Oh my GOD

A sprite bound in shadows says, Well, if that happened.

Valarien tilts his head curiously.

You say, The Pooka is worse than the fae.

You say, Er.

A sprite bound in shadows says, I could look into mirrors again, they'd not all
be broken.


You say, Sprite.

You say to a sprite bound in shadows, Pfff.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

Diamante sucks thoughtfully on his teeth.

Diamante proudly shows off a perfect gemstone:
This gemstone is perfect in every detail, each facet faultlessly cut, each
surface smooth as a placid lake, each point glittering with light. It is
difficult to tell exactly what gem this is, as the light refracts off it in a
dazzling, hypnotic spray of rainbow hues.

Diamante Stillwind, Night's Whisper says, Shiny enough?

A sprite bound in shadows says, Not as shiny as Master's teeth.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane sticks out his tongue and says, Showoff.

Diamante's mouth turns up as his face breaks into a smile.

You say, You know.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
I'm sorry you say to a sprite bound in shadows with a blush.

Grrrrrr, you say to a pooka bound in shadows.
A pooka bound in shadows glances askance.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, Able to blind a sheep in a single smile

You say, I think you people are missing the point.

You say, This sprite.

You say, Is harassing my virtue.

Diamante blinks.

Diamante peers about himself unscrupulously.

You say, She is.

Diamante Stillwind, Night's Whisper says, You people?
A sprite bound in shadows says, I can't harass what is non existent.

Diamante shifts his eyes suspiciously from side to side.

A sprite bound in shadows blinks.

Opening your mouth wide, you gape in wonder.

You say, Did you just hear that

Diamante looks about himself, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.

It is now the 17th of Juliary, 148 years after the Coming of Estarra.

You say, She..she..

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You say to a pooka bound in shadows, Settle down you.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, And it's time that dear Betta went
home to faethorn, before people start dying around here.

Valarien nods his head at himself.

You say, I think that's best. Send her ugly mug back.

Shoo Shoo you say to a sprite bound in shadows as you wave her away.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You flash a sprite bound in shadows a joyous smile.

A sprite bound in shadows says, We're sending you home, then?

Bleh, you say to a pooka bound in shadows, as you roll your eyes in disgust.

You say, Pff

Diamante gives a pooka bound in shadows the once-over, eyeing him suspiciously.

You say, You're so ugly...your face..scares..people..

You say, I need better material.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says to a sprite bound in shadows, And I
have to be going, anyway - Take care in faethorn, you.

A sprite bound in shadows says, Yet they ran from you.

A sprite bound in shadows says, TWICE.

You say, THEY SO DID NOT.

You say, DID NOT DID NOT DID NOT

You stamp your foot on the ground and begin to spout vehemently.

A sprite bound in shadows exclaims, They did

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Awayyyy.

Diamante peers about himself unscrupulously.

A honey nut pie tumbles out of a sprite bound in shadows.
Valarien thanks his fae for their service, and bids them safe journey back to
Faethorn.

Valarien blinks.

You pick up a honey nut pie.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Did my sprite...

You say, I'm eating this pie too.

Prince of Shadows, Valarien Moonbane says, Have a...pie?

You eat a honey nut pie with gusto.
The warm sweetness of the honey syrup and nutty meringue tickle your taste buds
delightfully, the pastry adding a flaky texture and tart flavoured contrast.

You say, Take that.

Diamante Stillwind, Night's Whisper says, Oi.

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You say, Now she doesn't have dinner.

You say, Who got the last laugh, indeed.

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka bound in shadows.
You hold no pie .

Wagging her finger in censure, a nymph bound in shadows whispers quietly to a
pooka bound in shadows, whose eyes glow green and then nods meekly.

You say, I ate it.

You shuffle your feet uneasily.

Diamante sniffles softly.

A giggling voice echoes in your mind, Hahahahahaha
