[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 4853277, member: 4936"] Sigil smiled and graciously accepted Damien's bottle with a little bow. [COLOR="Lime"]"Many thanks, sir. I will ask Tatter to serve it with our meal."[/COLOR] The doors open when she raps her knuckles against them, and as the others pass through, they notice that the eyes of the stone griffon perched on a root by the door are following them. Vines twist slowly along the trunk as they pass through the doorway, like snakes just a little too sleepy to strike. Inside is a large round chamber. The floor slopes gently upward towards a magnificent wooden throne in the center that looks to be shaped directly out of the wooden floor, not a separate piece of furniture. It's carved with trees and leaves, but a closer look reveals humanoid and fey faces cleverly hidden in the tangles. Along the wooden floor a heavy mist swirls and eddies, like a thin layer of smoke hugging the ground. Hanging over the throne is a wide, flat brazier of brass that shines with incredibly bright golden light up onto the high arched ceiling above, and illuminates the entire room. Around the edges, where the shadows are deeper, the mists seem to thicken, making it hard to determine exactly how big the room is. Ghostly forms hobnob among each other in those misty shadows, silhouettes mostly, though their slim builds and large ears suggest fey folk. Their conversations are whispered, and can only be heard as a quiet murmuring noise. Despite there being no windows or ventilation, the air is sweet and pure and cool. [COLOR="Lime"]"The reception hall,"[/COLOR] Sigil says with indulgent pride. [COLOR="Lime"]"I normally take my meals in my chambers or study...those are upstairs. I'll take you up. Tatter!"[/COLOR] A cleverly hidden door in the back of the room opens, and through it flitted a thin, pale pixie in threadbare, worn and frayed garments. Her hair was dark and lank and fell over her face in long, straight bangs. She flew over the floor at a good clip and paused before them all before saying in a hard-to-hear whisper, [COLOR="Plum"]"...'s Queen."[/COLOR] Sigil presented Damien's bottle to the tiny girl. [COLOR="Lime"]"Prepare dinner for me and my guests, please. Serve this wine with it. And once it's done, would you fly over to the Elder's cabin and help him with a particular suit of armor that's vexing us?"[/COLOR] Tatterdemalion took the wine and nodded slowly. [COLOR="Plum"]"'S, Queen,"[/COLOR] she affirmed, then wheeled about and sped back off to the secret door. Sigil smiled at the others, and led them towards the same door. [COLOR="Lime"]"She followed me out of Faerie. There were some others who wished to, but I didn't want a large entourage. And Tatterdemalion...she's very special. One of the older pixies still alive, and a very accomplished bard. I don't know where I'd be without her help."[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
