Performance for the Elf Queen
We move to the following day.
After their evening in Taroduna, the Court of the Queen of the Black Forest Elves... with whatever details are yet to be filled in... the characters manage to reassemble the next day.
Hylensia is managing breakfast, which involves lots of flat breads with honey.
"Elves do seem to have a sweet tooth," she explains. "They have so much honey. They gave us some. They were quite surprised that we had little ourselves! Now there's honey for bread, honey to go in tea... "
Argentos has been giving thought to today's performance. Celeste had predicted it, she knows her father. Argentos believes that yes, that Fox's over the top hinting about the world outside the Black Forest meant something.
"And since the Queen did not simply banish the creature, and in fact she invited us here... well I have already picked up speculation that there is less disagreement between the two than meets the eye. But monarchs, even Elven monarchs, are heavily bound in what they can do and say, more so than many think. She wants the outside world, we shall give it to her, the theme for today is Distant Lands. That is what we shall celebrate."
