Sir Tervic, Shifting Shield shouts, "Enjoy your pie, Revan! Oh wait! You don't
have a tongue!"

Gossamer winds whip around you suddenly as the voice of Lisaera, the Shining
Mother reverberates, "Your tongue is Mine, Tervic."

Xiel sits down regally upon a throne of shimmering moonstone, his eyes glowing
with supreme confidence.

You say, "Happy now, Princess?"

Archsummoner Xiel y'Kada, the Heir of Ellindel says, "Prince, dammit."

Archsummoner Xiel y'Kada, the Heir of Ellindel says, "I'm not that effeminate."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "I gotta go meet up with Alianna
at the bindery."
You follow Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase ...

Alianna clambers down from a nearby vantage point in the treetops.
Alianna glances briefly westwards and dashes off into the distance.

You follow Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase ... to the Lunarlit Bindery.
You sway back and forth.

The Lunarlit Bindery.
Superimposed over this location, an ethereal forest reaches up to the sky. A
small yet cozy nook, several silver candles and figurines act as decoration. The
walls are unpainted, no colour covering the smooth bark but instead carved with
pictures of delicate flowers, intertwining vines, and the glorious moon. Shelves
and desks take up much of the room, each weighted down with bottles of coloured
inks, fresh pages of vellum and thick covers of leather. Unfinished, a few
partially bound books lay cast to the side, piled up wherever space is
available. A painting of tree-lined beach is proudly exhibited on a nearby wall.
A heavy printing press has been assembled in the corner. Peering over his
spectacles with a frown, a haughty scribe stands here. Kalas Alianna, Noyan
en-Lam is here. She wields a moonblade inlaid with a silvery triple moon design
in each hand. Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase towers here. She wields
Kjat, Horizon Weft in her left hand and Tarmoj, Sunrise Warp in her right.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam looks thoughtful and says, "I win."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "I'm carrying this great lump on
my shoulder, of course you would."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "And you've got to be kidding me, I'm missing
-one- jade."

Indignantly, you say, "Warn me next time!"

Alianna ponders the situation.
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Either of you have a Jade?"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Nope."

You shake your head.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Hrm, be right back."
Alianna glances briefly westwards and dashes off into the distance.

Alianna arrives from the west.
Alianna gives a group of 15 wood commodities to Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara,
Alianna gives a jade vial to Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase.
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "..ahem."

Nejii mutters discontentedly.
Nejii gives a jade vial to Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam.

Alianna gives a group of 2 jade stones to Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final
Phase.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "You made me walk too much. I'm confused!"
Alianna runs around madly, flapping her arms in a blind panic.
Alianna gives a group of 2 gold bars to Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase.

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "And the gold!"
Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "And the silk."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "..right."
Alianna gives a group of 2 bolts of silk to Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final
Phase.
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Coulda sworn I passed that over."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "You didn't pass over the 5000
gold, either."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "..You were paying for that."
Alianna gives Nejii the once-over, eyeing her suspiciously.

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Since when!?"

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "What part of -guild- book do you not
understand!"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "The part where that somehow means
the money comes out of my pack!?"

Alianna rolls her eyes.
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Yes!"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "...why!?"

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Rather, guild book that I'm going to be
spending all my time making painfully detailed drawings in!"

Xiran falls to the floor laughing.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "You've got a buggering salary, I don't!"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Rubbish, you'll just make cutouts
of Lendren's paintings."
Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Since when do I have a salary?"

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "I am not cutting these paintings!"
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "You tell me, Mr. -Ambassador-!"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Oh, that."
Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "That's Commune business."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Yeah, that."
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "With a salary."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "And besides, I've had like 10
credits from that ever."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "You don't see Champions being paid at all, do
you?"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "You've had more from the
Shofangi!"

Looking downtrodden, Alianna sadly shakes her head at Nejii.
Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "I have not!"

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Oh yes you have."

Xiran rolls about, caught in spasms of laughter.

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "For starters you got 5 for
helping with the Kephera."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "You gave -five- for the Undervault insanity
expedition."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Kick Xiran for me, would you?"

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "That's where it ENDS."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Hey, that wasn't me, that was
Aesyra's idea."

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "I'll be kickin' you in the gut if you don't
concede."

Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "It was gonna be 10 but she said
we don't have enough."
Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase says, "Pfft."
Nejii gets some gold sovereigns from a soft, crystal blue leather pack.
Nejii binds together a book covered with golden kephera.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Name ONE other time I got paid, seriously!"
"Hmph!" Alianna snorts.

Nejii gives a book covered with golden kephera to Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam says, "Excellent."

Nejii powerfully bullkicks Alianna's head, impacting with a sickening crunch.
Alianna sails out to the west, flailing wildly.
You follow Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase ... to First Seren Trust.

Kalas Alianna, Noyan en-Lam yells, "This isn't over, woman!"

You see Ribbonweaver Nejii Talnara, Final Phase yell, "You were asking for it!"

(The Talnaras): Aramel says, "Mm, what's happening?"

Nejii puts some gold sovereigns in a soft, crystal blue leather pack.

(The Talnaras): You say, "Nejii and Alianna were being funny and then Nejii did
something scary."
(The Talnaras): Aramel (from the Prime Material Plane) says, "Flower arranging?"
