*Addressing everyone.*

"I'm so glad to meet all of you! I hope we'll have a nice reception. Please, eat as much as you want, and let's all talk. I'd like to hear your sides of the story with Ammon from each of you, and if you have any juicy stories of what you've been doing since, that would be grand!"

El says little, feeling a little disgruntled that she didn't get a chance to freshen up, her mood isn't improved by the stunning good looks of their host.

When Vasha and Lynestra Can't recall her full name begin talking of bathing and freshening up El's mood suddenly improves "Why that sounds wonderful" El says "that rat of a valet wouldn't let us freshen up before herding us in here your majesty" she explains with a sweet smile "Can I perhaps join you Vasha? Your majesty?".

“There’s not really all that much to tell, when you get down to it,” Tiberius begins simply, as he prepares to tell his story. “Between the pair of us, using Ammon’s money and my status, we managed to buy the last surviving member of a group of nymphs that had been illegally sold into slavery in the arena, release her, and escort her out of the Empire. The journey wasn’t without a few strange occurrences though, as her time in the arena and events that had transpired during her initial capture had wounded her far more deeply than anyone initially suspected.” Pausing briefly, a slight smile comes to his lips as he continues, “Kallithyia had, I think, started to look beyond her past though by the time we parted company, thankfully...chiefly due to the priestess who served as the ship’s healer and counselor.”

"Oh, they're public baths?" Vasha sighs, "Well, I guess that may be fun too, though it's never quite the same when you're wearing something."

*Lynestra blushes slightly and pushes the tips of her two pointer fingers together.*

"Oh, well, you two can work something out, I'm sure, but they have all sorts of time-consuming and rigourously-detailed plans for the bride, I'm afraid," Lynestra confesses, "As to the baths, well, I wouldn't call anything in this place exactly 'public', since there isn't really a public to use them, but there are separate bathing areas for the men and women generally, though sometimes a married couple will bathe together, and the baths are big enough that they can be shared."

"Well, that was very kind of you, though I don't suppose you two could have worked sooner to save...no, I'm sure it just couldn't be. You know, somehow I think Ammon thought of that journey as some kind of failure--he hardly talked about it that much."

"That's my husband for you. A brilliant Warmage and great in a fight, but he's got a heart of gold, and underneath that, he's a big softie," Claudia jokes, giving Tiberius a kiss, "Ship's healer and counselor? I didn't even know we had those on our ships--well, at least I never did, did you usually, honey?" Claudia asks, before whispering to Tiberius in High Praetorian:

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]"W...was she...prettier than me? The ship's counselor...Is that why..."[/SBLOCK]

*Then she turns to Mythweaver.*

"You're the Byblan, Mythweaver, who did some archaeological expeditions with Ammon. I heard there were all sorts of ghosts and nasty things in there--he was lucky to have you with him."

"It is I who was lucky to have your husband to be with me. He saved me a few times down there but we did learn quite a bit. It was a fascinating dig. The knowledge gained on that expedition was really worth the danger we went through." replies the Mythweaver.

"That's very sweet of you, sir--oh wait, I didn't mean to offend if you aren't a male Ascended," Lynestra apologies, "It sounds like quite an adventure. Oh, and he's my husband tomorrow. Tonight he's still my fiance and husband-to-be. Somehow, that's even more romantic."

"Oh, well, that's ok. I don't mind bathing naked," Vasha says. "I'm sure we'll be able to work something out then El. Besides, Ferris wanted me to show the the joys of bathing in spring water, and I told Tiberius I'd show him my," she looks at Lynestra, "Oh, I'd better not say, so Ammon's will be a suprise"

"Go ahead--not only do I promise not to tell him, I couldn't see him before you if I wanted to," Lynestra points out, winking.
Vasha giggles, "It's a suprise for you silly."

OOC: Vasha still has her scroll for Ammon, doesn't she?
