Glen continued to walk on since he didn't get any reply
the old man was a peculiar fellow he thought, he finally reached his destination, it was an old but big tent that held a comitte of tax collectors. Each person was given room and board so finally glen got to the house went to his room and slept, then 9 hours passed by he prepared himself and went out the door. Then he saw someone losing control of a vegetable cart and then saw the cart headed straight toward him, glen started to run.

Sarge · **Posted:** Fri Jul 28, 2006 2:14 pm

The vegetable cart careened down a hill and lost it's load of cabbage and beets about halfway down. Glen managed to avoid the beets, but those heads of cabbage sure do roll a long way. They caught up with him and oveetook him, leaving Glenn sticking out from a pile of cabbage up to his chest. The cart's owner came runing after Glen. "Oh my, are you hurt sir?" She said. "I'm Matilda. Me hand slipped on the handle when me foot got caught in a loose cobblestone and the cart took off on it's own. I've made a right mess of it, haven't I?" The cart's owner was a common peasant, but not unpleasant. Her demeanor was apologetic, and she was rather pretty.
An officer of the Town Watch came over and said: "Lost some cabbage, did you miss? Well, you'd better get after your cart, Miss. It's lodged halfway up old Mister Grace's apple tree at the bottom of the hill, and he'll be right wicked with you if he finds it there. I'll round up your cabbage for you, but you'd best get a move on 'afore Mister Grace see's what you've done.
Matilda smiled at the officer. She apparently knew him. "That's sweet of you, Jeremy."
The officer blushed. "'Tain nothin', just looking out for the most beautifully vegetable seller in town, is all."
Both had only eyes for each other, and had now apparently forgottent that Glen was half buried in a pile of cabbage.

Anamora led Prosper through the doors, saying "Allow me to introduce Titos Ske, Lord Chamberlain to His Majesty The Emperor. He will prepare you for you meeting with The Emperor. There are protocols to be observed, and he will instruct you in them."
Prosper saw a very tall elven man with a long silver-white beard in long flowing silver robes and a odd-shaped golden flat-brimed hat. He was standing with his arms crossed, looking down at Prosper. He spoke, with a heavily accented voice: "We have been expecting you, Anamora. Is this human child the one His Majesty is expecting? Prosper of Skare Brae, yes?"
Anamora spoke in quick Elvish to the Chamberlain, who responded in kind. the had a short conversation in Elvish.

The Chamberlain turned to Prosper and said: "Anamora has explained to me that you are not versed in courtly etiquite. Well, we don't have much time, but I shall give you the basics very quickly. When you see His Majesty, you are not to speak unless spoken to. Unlike Human kings, one does not bow in the presence of Elven royalty: One looks them in the eye. This is true for all the members of the Royal Family. You are not to touch the hilt of your sword: That is a honor reserved for the Knights and for the High-Born. If you must move your sword incidentally or for comfort reasons, move it by the blade or by the sheath, not the hilt.
For your sake, the Emperor has commanded that this audience be conducted in the humans' language, so you won't have to try understanding elvish noble titles this day.
The Emperor is to be formally addressed as 'Your Majesty'. Since you are a guest in this land and not a subject or the His Majesty's crown, it is permissible that your address His Majesty as 'Emperor' instead of 'My Lord Emperor' since we acknowledge that you owe your filial alliance to your human king. The Queen is similarly addressed as 'Your Majesty' or 'Empress', while The Crown Prince is referred to as 'Your Royal Highness' or as 'Prince Quilanth'. Other nobility may be simply referred to as 'My Lord' or by the human equivalent of their noble title. Finally, you are not sit in the royal presence, no matter how long the audience lasts, unless His Majesty commands you to sit. Do you understand all of this?"

<Welcome Buhubs, good to see you here. Incidently, where are you?>

Prosper nodded his head. "Yes, I do."

Prosper nodded his head. "Yes, I do."

The Chamberlain nodded his head. "Good, then we'll get started. Follow me." The Chamberlain opened a door to his left, and walked through. This lead to another impressive halway... nearly identical to the first one Prosper has seen. Anamora wasn't kidding when he said they all looked alike. The Chamberlain moved through the hallway to the door at the end of it, which led to a courtyard, which led to yet another hallway. Moving to the door at the end of it, the Chamberlain said: "Beyond here is the throne room. The Emperor awaits."
He opened the doors, and a massive ivory and marble room was on the other side. The majestic room was jaw-dropingly awesome. The roof was gilded in gold and silver, and the carpet was red and purple. Guardsmen in silver breastplates and silver helms carrying silver Halberds (a long pole-arm weapon that has an axe-head at the tip) lined a aisle of oak benches which held various noblemen and dignitaries (all of them were standing, as per the courtly etiquette in the presence of the Emperor). The aisle led to a the Emperor on his throne, flanked by his wife the Empress and his son the Crown Prince, each on their own smaller thrones.

Getting up from the cabbages Glen brushed himself off and raced down to the cart where he saw who at least thought was "matilda" and some old man yelling at her, Glen asked her when she was done talking with him, "I haven't had the pleasure of meeting your aqquaintance, might I know who you are?"

The girl sighed and said: "I'm Matilda Corinsh, and I'm having a very bad day. Can you help me get my cart out of the tree? Mister Grace is rather understandably update to have been woken up by the sound of it crashing into his apple tree."

...While the REAL Tem was fighting the pirate. Apparently he was some famous pirate by the name of Monkey E. Loony, and he had flung Tem through about 60 walls currently, but that didn't stop him. He just waited until dawn, stabbed himself in the heart, and got resurrected. Now, Loony also took alot of damage, but neither let up.

[OOC: Both of you, stop it.]

After a nice, long night, the sun kissed Marcus's face in the morning and whispered "Good morning." Marcus awoke to the sounds of birds chirping.

"What a great sleep! I feel a lot better!" The lizzard boy got out of bed, stretching & flexing his bulging muscles. He was ready to fight whatever came his way.

Marcus put on his kilt, armor & boots, locked the door of his room & went downstairs.

"What a great night!" He said to the deskman. "Thank you for letting me stay here, sir!" Marcus gave the man the room keys and went to the dining room.

Prosper walked up to the throne, aware that, strangely enough, a young street urchin was about to meet the Emporor of the elven nation.
The Emporor himself struck a powerful figure: noble, majestic, strong of body and mind.
Stoping before the throne he looked his majesty in the eye and waited while he was examined by him.

glen helped matilda cornish get her cart out of the tree and had a few friendly words with her, then after he helped refill the cart theyn departed and then glen thought "will I ever meet her again"

Then after he was distracted by dreamily hoping he bumped into a few people and he was deeply sorry, he couldn't see where he was going

Thge Lord Chamberlain Steped forward and produced a scroll with the royal seal upon it. The Emperor motioned to him, and the Chamberlain produced a large ivory staff from his cloak, and took a scroll from off the top of it. He loundly tapped the ivory staff upon the mrble floor of the great chamber three times, the sound of it reverbertaing througout the great chamber as if a bomb had gone off. He unrolled the scroll and read a-loud from itin a loud voice: "Hear yea, Hear ye! My Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen, distinguished guests and honored visitors. By order of His Majesty, Emperor Peilmt Evenordormount III, His Majesty's court is hereby called to order this 28th day of July, in the 257th year of his reign. Let all be upstanding and give attention!" The Chanberlain then placed the scroll in a bronze brazier and lit it. The braizier burned in a bright blue flame. He then walked up to the the emperor, bowed once, and went to stand to the right of the crown prince (who was seated at the Emperor's right. He stood facing the court, with his ivory staff in hand.
The Emperor Stood up and said "This meeting has been called to order that we may investigate reports that the Drow have been sighted in the human lands. Standing before me are three who have eyewitness accounts to give regarding this matter. I have the honor of introducing to this court Anamora of Suldeneselar, Summoner Adjunct to his Emenece our own High Mage Drevenor. You are bid welcome, Anamora."
Anamora replied: "Your welcome honors me, Your Majesty."
The Emperor continued: "Standing next to him is the Dwarven miner Shamus Kaeirin of the Clan Kaeirin. We bid you welcome, Sir Dwarf.""
Shamus replied: "By Uloft's beard, I accept Your Welcome"
Prosper was slightly puzzled by this "Uloft" reference. He made a mental note to ask Shamus what that was all about.
The Emperor continued: "And finally, I have the honor of introducing to you all Master Prosper of the town of Cardigh. Master Prosper, we bid you welcome."

Marcus went into the dining room of the Inn & sat down at an empty table. After a while, an old-looking waitress walked up to the table.

"Hello, Mr. Lizard! Can I get you anything?"

"Hmm..." Marcus thought for a bit. "How about a plate of your freshest steak & eggs? And a big cup of tea to drink, please."

"Sure, it'll be a while." The waitress walked away.

Marcus leaned back in his chair, setting his head on his claws as he relaxed. It had been a restful night, and now Marcus was eager to join the rest of the party to fight that Drow. He was itching to fight the Dire Wolf, too.
