    Tebtranlyn made a quick mental note of the name. If he played it like he wasn't listening, and if luck was on his side today, Sszinyon might actually let slip some very juicy bit of information. The gladiatorial combat was a good way to help make it seem like he wasn't listening in on his uncle, not to mention something very entertaining to watch.

    "Ha, if we're lucky they will kill each other. If we're really lucky they'll have to bring mages in to clean up the stains." The assassin said in response to Zee's words. "If their unlucky the Matron won't allow it, forcing them to fight for another day. Mmm, the cursed drider there probably has more agility and speed but I doubt he could take more than a few blows from that sword the other is wielding. Any thoughts mother?"

    This was certainly something Teb liked and enjoyed, even as a kid seeing others fight for the amusement of a crowd him excited. Every now and then he even had fun getting in on the fighting himself.

    Ryldolin just stares blankly at Sadei for a moment. "How..." He didn't even see her change. His attention is quickly drawn by the new activity, however. He looks up to where the gladiators are and his eyes light up. So far he'd been doing his best to appear dignified, but now he lets an eager grin slip through. "Whoa. This is going to be good."


    Irril, meanwhile, only gives the preparation for combat a passing glance. She's more concerned with finding her sister right now. Hm, the half-drow finds a significant shadow and literally slips right into it. Maybe not limiting her perspective to so few dimensions will help her find Raven.

    Irzayle watches as the entertainment is brought in. At the sight of the drider, they seem almost excited. Until they catch sight of the deformities in its shape. They rub their gloved arm slowly and make an effort to hide their revulsion. They mask something else as well.

    They straighten up.

    A splendid match this will be. Though I wonder what happened to to disfigure the drider in such a way.

    "It was lovely meeting you, Lillanthil," 'Alexis' says to the devil, tugging on Kirk's arm a bit. "Come along, Mister Locke. We should look for your date." The alleged drowess starts to sound smug, perhaps amused. "Maybe she's already here."

    Meanwhile...

    The Exalted might find herself flanked by Naitiri, who's looking at the gladitorial contest with revulsion. "Are they really going to... kill one another?" It's less concern and more disgust at the sheer savagery.

    Kirk bids Lillanthil farewell and follows along with Alexis. "You never know, she might have slipped in. She's not exactly subtle, however." He looks toward where the gladiator match is warming up. "That said, the party has been distracting. Keep an eye out for her. With any luck she'll be the one that glows." Kirk smiles a bit to himself as he thinks of Tina, one of his few honest expressions tonight. It definitely had a different feel to it.

    If someone had told him before he met Tina that he'd find glowing skin appealing, he'd have given them a funny look. Tina, he'd freely admit, made it look stunning.

    For some reason, that first statement draws a laugh from Alexis's lips. She watches Kirk closely, while he talks. There it is again... that smile. "Do you really like this woman, Kirk?"

    Shrike looks around, double-takes, then smirks, nodding. "Indeed they are. I presume you won't be giving the thumbs-down to the victor, however." The Exalt chuckles. "And say, do you know a woman named Fettina? You look strikingly like her."

    "Oh, you know Tina?" Naitiri says, giving Shrike a once-over. Anything to distract her from the ballroom's bloody spectacle. She smiles a charming, if prepared, smile. "I'm her sister, Naitiri. Are you two friends?"

    Kirk shrugs, as if it doesn't matter. "She's a close friend. We don't see each together nearly as much as I'd like, however. Thus why this party was an excellent opportunity." He explains. He wasn't about to go into detail with anyone, however, and especially not a complete stranger.

    Kirk is caught off guard for a moment. He blinks a couple times, but quickly recovers. "Ah, no. We're friends." He assures her, though perhaps not very convincingly.

    "For a man with so many masks, you're surprisingly bad at hiding things," Alexis says, with a familiar, tinny laugh. "It's cute."

    Meanwhile, by the gladiator ring...

    "Oh. I see," Naitiri says, affording Shrike a polite cough. She shakes the Exalt's hand with a smile. "I'm here representing Elexxion Industries. Are you, uh, here with Tina perhaps?"

    "Really now? I suppose anyone can be read, but I usually think for me the privilege is is reserved for those who know me quite well." Kirk says, regarding her critically. "But you and I, we've just met, haven't we."

    "You know, I'd think I'd recognize you, but then again, you have had your face covered by that veil this entire time." Kirk very suddenly tries to take her chin in his hand and turn her face toward him. "What ever could you be hiding behind there." He says, an amused little smirk on his face. If she doesn't react quickly, he's going to try and pull the veil away.

    Sadei... doesn't seem very excited about the fighting. Quite the opposite in fact! "But... but they'll get hurt! Why are they fighting?"

    The kind-hearted girl just can seem to wrap her head around this. She can understand taking a life to eat. Everyone has to do that. Well... plants don't. But most people probably wouldn't enjoy being a tree. And Sadei generally avoided violence even when the Stars Were Right, serving mostly to bolster he siblings rather than killing things herself.

    This is just...

    Sad.

    "Why would they force them to fight?"

    Raven is discovered!

    The chimera is lurking a few steps perpendicular to reality, perched on some hyper-dimension thing that doesn't seem to notice her presence. She watches the goings on from 'above' where she can easily view the whole party. And most of the adjoining rooms of the palace as well.

    If she's seen her sister she makes no indication of it.

    "Because it's fun to watch." Ryldolin gives her a puzzled look. But only for a moment. He didn't want to miss a second of the fight. "That drider is freaky, but no way he can beat that big guy. He looks like he could tear him apart."


    1

    Very suddenly, Irril is not where she was but is in front of Raven. "Aren't you bored just watching?" She asks. "Mum says this is supposed to be fun, you know. Pretty sure you're not going to have fun out here."

    Oh crap! 'Alexis' wasn't prepared for that. She struggles a little, grabbing Kirk's arm. "Kirk, waitaminute--" Alexis manages to pull away, straightening her veil and putting a little distance between her and Kirk. "If you really want to know... take a guess." Maybe she'll even give him a hint or two.

    "A guess? I suppose I can do that. I knew there was something familiar about you right away, but I was sure I never knew any drow quite like you. So who do I know that can change their appearance? Surprisingly few, or at least I assume so." Kirk stroked his chin, looking contemplative. A broad smile spread across his face. "And Fettina, how did you ever think I wouldn't recognize that laugh?"

    Damn, she's been made. 'Alexis' stares at him a moment, pursing her lips, then tears off the veil. "Man, I had you up until that laugh." Fettina is revealed! Her face is still the same, in shape and structure. The skin, eyes and ears are decidedly drowish, however. "So whaddya think? Pretty good get-up huh?"

    Kirk laughs a little. "I'm impressed, I admit. I didn't know you could change how you looked that much. I'm sure you should have kept up the act if it was anyone but me. I like to think I'm perceptive."

Anyway, she accepted, though when I told her of the Order of the Centipede, she thought it would be a better fit and went to Riverside to meet the Grand Mistress, who was looking for recruits amongst the city's underclass. It's lucky that the Grand Mistress wasn't at the Hermitage at the time; if she had been, Kail would have been caught up with... Other Harnel." It's not clear how much Terrowin believes about what Cessie and Harnel have said regarding Other Harnel.

Cessie replies curtly, getting a bit uncomfortable hearing all this. She was getting more and more convinced this religion had to go, what they did was simply inhuman. It had to be stopped. We'll see, I'm not sure if I'd trust some random adventurers enough for this kind of task. We should turn to more trusted allies like one of the other organizations.

    GLoG always seems focused on getting people out of slavery and taking them in. We should probably discuss with them before we take many actions, and they may be willing to lend some manpower to the emancipation effort.

    "In any case Terrowin, it was good to see you again after all this time, but I'd rather like to get back to enjoying the party. There's people to talk to and things to eat, you understand," Harnel says. Terrowin may get the feeling that Harnel is saying this for Cessie's benefit, given her unease. This is true.

The gladiatorial combat was a good way to help make it seem like he wasn't listening in on his uncle, not to mention something very entertaining to watch.

    "Ha, if we're lucky they will kill each other. If we're really lucky they'll have to bring mages in to clean up the stains." The assassin said in response to Zee's words. "If their unlucky the Matron won't allow it, forcing them to fight for another day. Mmm, the cursed drider there probably has more agility and speed but I doubt he could take more than a few blows from that sword the other is wielding. Any thoughts mother?"

    This was certainly something Teb liked and enjoyed, even as a kid seeing others fight for the amusement of a crowd him excited. Every now and then he even had fun getting in on the fighting himself.
    "Oh, the gladiator will win, of course," Ethelay says to her son. But then she hears her brother's reaction. "What is it, Sszinyon?"

    "Yes, of course. Let me know if there's another Apocalypse threat; I don't want to lose this world too, especially as I have more invested in this one than I did in my homeworld." I'm not sure if Cessie or Harnel know what happened to Terrowin's homeworld, but I believe Wenomir does. Reinholdt does, certainly.

    Terrowin frowns at the drider. Sure, it's horribly mutated and represents Lolth's Wrath, but he thinks there's ways to reduce most of the damage. Can't turn it back into a drow; that's Lolth's purview, not Dalachrech's. But spiders are invertebrates, and those He can deal with, unless there's interference anyway. Terrowin pushes through to the front row and adjusts his holy symbol, trying to surreptitiously show it to the drider.

    "Well, I may've cheated a little. Magic's fun," Tina says, gesturing at one of her ears. It morphs into a human one, for a brief second. "I can do lots more, too."

    Kirk raises an eyebrow. "Sounds like you've got a lot to tell me." He steps a little closer, smiling. "So how'd you get to be able to do that?"

    "My, ah, demon friend knows a few things about shapeshifting. He taught me," Tina explains, crossing her arms beneath her chest. "So? Should I stay like this or try another look?"

    "I wouldn't have known that was something that could be taught." Kirk says. He figures she must be talking about Evan. "Sure, try something else out. I'd be careful, though. Get too small and you might fall out of that dress." he says with a chuckle.

    "It uses magic to do it, but it's the same principle," Tina says. She closes her eyes, focusing rather intensely, and her whole body changes. A small pair of horns sprout from her skull. Fettina's skin shifts to a red-hot shade of crimson, and her eyes turn to solid lakes of frigid blue. Her dress turns black, and her hair becomes like cold fire, an illusion of magic or tech.

    The musician's body doesn't change too much. It's already been altered a bit for the occasion (and for the rather revealing dress).

    "And I bet you'd like that."
