    He looks at Danil, slightly disappointed.

    Danil concentrated, trying to project his thoughts.

    I think the princess may want to marry me. I was at a brunch for the nobles and someone asked the princess about her marital plans. She said she has someone in mind but didn't say who. But I've got a gut feeling that she meant me. And I did wish to become the brave knight who marries the princess when Mori read that weird book to us.

    We need to get together after this and compare notes. Whatever any of us can find about the others could be really helpful.

    Technically I didn't sleep next to her...I woke up net to her with clear evidence and a lack of clothing...and her name is Leila?? And she is the Princess' bodyguard...going after royalty? Ehh ambitious.

    and our best explanation is the spell worked.... as Zachary does a minor magical trick scooping light out of the air and letting it whips away.

    Great, so I may be marrying the princess and Zach is romancing the princesses's bodyguard. Now all we need is for Lexin to be the long-lost prince or something.

    As for what's going on, I've been using the working hypothesis that I finally decided to go completely crazy. I've been considering going crazy for a while, but it was never really the right time. But the idea about Mori's spell actually working seems a good one to.

    Say, or well I suppose think, have any of you seen the others? If Mori's spell really worked it should have zapped all six of us. Don't know what it would do to Mori, he didn't make any wish.

    Wait...Lucas, can anyone eavesdrop on us when we're mindspeaking like this?

He says showing his psicrystal ...and, at this topic, Loiosh informed me that there are people around the city with the same names as members of our group, I would assume that it isn't coincidence... The only one he doesn't know is Mori... But as far as we know he might have wanted to be a secret agent... and we wouldn't hear about him by chance..."

    Ok, let's see. Lucas, what's the range on this telepathy power? I should probably be heading up to the booth with the rest of the nobility, and it would be really helpful if we could stay in contact a bit longer.

    Oh, and Zachary, since you seem to be boinking the Princess's cheif bodyguard, you should know that she's got a psycho sister. Heard some nobles talking about her earlier. Here's the memory...

    "Yeah, but didn't she use to command the gold unit? Why did she leave that position?"

    "Well that's cause of that sister of hers...The Crescent Dragon. We've had months of peace since she took command of the guards. No orc is brave enough to fight her."

    "Why isn't she fighting in the tournament?"

    "She's too violent. Loves to fight that woman, I'd hate to think of what would happen if she turned on the crown, a lot of the knights look up to her."
    Don't know whether you want to do anything about the Crescent Dragon, but I thought you might want to know.

    BTW, Lucas, does "Loiosh" know anything about me?

    She laughs. "You're not fully awake yet are you? Don't worry it's nothing sexual, the simple fact is that it's easier to feed on one person than many people, prevents um..."social problems". And besides, do you ask your cow if you can butcher it before you eat it?" She slides up to you, surprisingly fast, for wearing weighted clothing. "So can I? Pleeeease?"

    I should probably be seen to be leaving. God knows what the three of us being together here communicates to everyone else, and I think the first events are about to get started.

    And Zachary, it really would be helpful if you know anything about the tournament scheduling.


    Danil turns and lets the link slide to the back of his mind as he makes his way up to join his fellow nobles. He scans the seats for anyone in his colors or any other clue where he's supposed to sit.

    I Agree, unfortunately I don't know much about the tournament, and the only thing I know about my opponent is purely....superficial...I don't seem to remember sparring for hours with her yesturday...which is going to leave me at a distict disadvantage.

    ~John~

    Mana drags you to the arena, and you managed to get decent seats.

    ~Reader~

    You meet up with your fellow Nobles in one of the upper box seats in the arena. With a great view, and more comfortable sitting arrangements.

    ~Lexin~

    Eventually everyone leaves leaving you and the squires. The squires have stopped sparing and are resting for their matches.

    Danil settles back and surveys the crowds and the general shape of the arena while he listens in on the conversations around him, waiting for an opportunity to jump in. The mindlink remained quiescent in the back of his mind, as he had nothing to send down it.

    No plans? ... I don't mind.

    He walks around trying to find out what exactly can he do there, and possibly what is planned for today.
    He knows for now that there is a tournament planned, he would like to know when is it and if there is anything else planned.
    ...A feast probably... but these things should probably come later... hmm maybe I will find a real bard performance around... there has to be something to do other than simply waiting for Zachary's fight...
    Then the last words of psicrystal strike him.
    Finding a girl?... I suppose I can focus on this one as well...

    To Loiosh "Tell me when it is time to go, so I don't miss Zachary's fight."

    Lucas decides to use this chance and tries to see and do everything that is to see and do ... and taste during the festival.
    He starts from trying to find some performers around, preferably the musical kind, hopefully getting to listen to some legend of this... world (?)
    He takes some time to try some food, the more exotic the better. (although he considers dogs and cats to be too 'exotic' to eat them)
    In all this time he also looks around if there is some pretty girl, so he could spent time with someone... less crystalline... than Loiosh.

    In all of this he remembers to go back to arena to watch Zachary's fight and if he sees another one of 'RPG group' he would stop and talk to them.

    You go by the cooking contest, where a young woman in a maid outfit is clearly creaming everyone with her food. Mainly cause she clearly had like 10 plates or so prepared and only here are anywhere near empty. She's wearing an apron outfit, and taking inventory.
