003 // we waltz on your front porch

[serpentis]

Who: Dorian
Broadcast: Fleet-wide!
Action: USE A GODDAMN MINGLE LOG I HAVE TOP LEVELS IN ALL OF THEM kids these days
When: 2/14, night

[Drift fleet, are you ready? Here is your resident charming mage, looking extra charming tonight. He smiles, almost victoriously.]

I do hope you all know how to dance. I have managed to secure an open invitation for myself, and however many guests I wish, to a gala in seven days, on Adsum. Hopefully it's not entirely dull, but they would need at least three murders to make for an exciting evening...I wouldn't hold my breath, were I you.

Do let me know if you're interested. And I warn you, you had better make yourself fit for being seen in public.

[To Jove]
I do hope you have a proper gown.

[To Arhen]
How would you care for a party?

((OOC: Gala IC post! The gala log itself will be posted next Saturday. Also, Dorian is currently afflicted with the pheromones malfunction. Do with that as you will.))

And here I thought society in Tirion kept you on your toes.

[serpentis]

Oh? Where is Tirion? I take it you're not from Thedas.

[faithfulwisdom]

No, I am not. Tirion upon Túna is the capital city of the Noldor in Valinor. I have not been there in sometime, in truth, but it was where I was born and raised.

[serpentis]

Ah, I see. What else can you tell me about your world? I've not heard very much of the other places that people come from. here.

[faithfulwisdom]

The world is a wide place and I have had the good fortune to see much of it in my time. I was born in Valinor, as I said, but I have lived my most recent years across the Sea in Middle Earth and there I have encountered many wonders. We are a world at war, but it is best, I think, to remember all that is good when we are faced with horrors.

I might easily speak of battle- of dragons, orcs, and blood that flows like rivers. But I might also speak of green meadows, of great Elven cities carved into the stone with the aid of our dwarven friends, and of the courage and might of the young race of Men.

[serpentis]

Curious! Those doesn't sound entirely different from my own world. We have elves, dwarves, the race on man, as well. Do you have Qunari in your world?

[faithfulwisdom]

Not unless they are known by another name; the term is entirely new to me.

[serpentis]

Ah, I see. Well, I suppose I can't entirely expect them to be the same. Better that you don't have to deal with those beasts.

[Dorian, that's racist.]

[faithfulwisdom]

We have beasts enough of our own. Do you have orcs where you are from?

[serpentis]

They don't sound familiar, no. Perhaps they're similar? Do your orcs have a governing structure that forces assimilation? How do they treat mages?

[faithfulwisdom]

I don't know much of their governing structure, in truth. They must have one, I suppose; they are organized enough to march in armies against us. The Dark Lord cannot command their every movement. As for mages- I am afraid the term is unfamiliar to me. What precisely do you mean?
