AGELESS CAMPAIGN, Episode II, Part VI.

"No darling, tell me now. What is your concern? Our association with who?"


"With Bast and Aphrodite. History shows that mortals do not fare well when the gods become involved. But, I am tired and I am sure I am over thinking things and am over worried from the constant suspicions I have had over the past few weeks. I am sure it is nothing. Come let us get ready." replies George.

"Hmmmm, perhaps we should talk about it at some point. I mean, I have only ever considered good things coming from Aphrodite. But yes, let's get ready for dinner. We need to have some fun after everything that's happened."

Ruby spends the next two hours enjoying a nice, hot bubble bath then getting ready for dinner. She wears her nicest plum color dress and spends significant time wrestling her curls into submission.

Meanwhile George has also bathed and dressed in his tuxedo. The two of them, refreshed, make their way to the dining room.

George smiles as Ruby approaches. "See, this is what I was saying. Aphrodite doesn't like mortals to show her up, and you my dear come closest of any mortal." says George kissing Ruby. "It will be nice to actually enjoy a meal for a change instead of wolfing it down while looking over your shoulder."
 

The food is delivered to the table and looks wonderful. Callum must also be rather hungry as table conversation is at a bare minimum for the next twenty minutes. When the last of the plates are close to empty and the wine bottle is near the bottom he says, "I think I made the restaurant choice."

"I think you may be a little tipsy. You left out a very important word. Right or wrong choice? I've quite enjoyed it, myself."
 

"I think you may be a little tipsy. You left out a very important word. Right or wrong choice? I've quite enjoyed it, myself."
Callum replies, "Then it is the right choice. And you may be right about the wine, it has actually been over a month since I had anything alcoholic, I seem to be out of practice."

Nearing the dining room, unlike prior visits to this room, when it was open to the public, it looks remarkably different now. Most of the tables and chairs have been removed, with one long table now in the center. However, this table currently is not set. Instead, there is a smaller table with only four chairs that has been set and arranged over near the fireplace on the far wall. A small fire is burning and throwing off a variety of colors, mostly reds and oranges, but with some blue, green and purple streams.

Several guards stand by the entrance way to the room. Five of them are human but the one who catches George and Ruby's eye is Neferka's Ogre bodyguard, who they have not seen since earlier that morning.
 

"I think you should have some more; it'll make it easier for me to have my wicked way with you later."
He smiles and says, "As if either of us need alcohol for that. But once this meal is finished we do have a piece of business to take care of, a telegram to Queen Neferka letting her know that we will be dealyed for a few days."

Ruby hooked her arm through George's as they strolled into the dining room.

She nodded at the ogre. "Good evening Mengesha. I hope all is well, with you and with the Queen?"

Ooc: I think that is his name?
 

He smiles and says, "As if either of us need alcohol for that. But once this meal is finished we do have a piece of business to take care of, a telegram to Queen Neferka letting her know that we will be dealyed for a few days."

"What do you plan to tell her? Minor repairs seems like the obvious choice.

You plan for us to be here several days?"
