Aaron It's not really very long before I get back into human form - it just seems like a long time. Later..... Artizza I nod and try to make some sympathetic noises as my....sister regales me with one of Aaron's latest misadventures as a castle servant before Illura finally interceded and assigned him to cater to Joan's needs (and thus relieving a lot of tensions in the process, no longer inflicting tensions and all that amongst the guests). He makes a fine prince, but I fear that his ego makes him less than the most humble of servants! Being that the walls have ears (now almost literally true due to the increased security called for because of Aaron's apparent murder), the main part of the tale is being told via normal speech, with some added personal comments not for public consumption via "mind speech" (ability gained by myself and Fertal somewhere we cannot remember right at this moment, no doubt). Now, being that it (Aaron's story) is supposed to be a rather funny (with or without secretive comments) story useful in relieving pent up tensions from the last two days. Acting the part of being mournful at the funeral of the fake Aaron's body. Watching and waiting for something ....some kind of attempt to happen now that the Minister of Finances and his cronies have been discovered (and dealt with by Illura). Watching and frankly being amazed at the show that Synizn and the other mages are putting up as they attempt to appear to try to uncover a source of all the chaos storms and some means to counter it. Not a halfway bad acting job, really. All that and still keeping guard over Rebecca. Above all else her continued good health and safety must be kept, else all will be for naught! God, that story was needed! I and Fertal are ready to fly off the handle if we don’t do something to relieve the tension. I finally give up and break out into a pearl of elfin laughter, laughing so hard that my sides ache a bit after I finish. Astra joins in, enjoying. Was rather funny, really. Will have to tell you about it sometime... Will tell Fertal it tonight in bed.... But right now, there are a few things I’d like to know about my new family. The one that I first ask (by mindspeech) Astra, though is just how much “kin” do I have that are analogs like her (still human or changed like me).
Because of all the rush rush business, I hadn't gotten around to asking that unitl now! Well, Astra sighs, Fair question....
