well, nothing much to add, actually. the ball was yours
Ethranor will go up in the higher town, using his own papers or special permit. He will buy some decent clothes for Diane (the kind that she would wear in a normal day), and he will insist on buy some nice dress for the healer, too (nothing fancy or too embarrassingly expensive for her, but something that she would wear on some festivity). Then he will head down and find Diane, bringing her the gift.

[sblock=Ethranor]OOC: A dress suited to Diane's station would normally cost about 75 gold pieces. She would still look odd without the proper jewelry, but at least she won't be completely nude. What would normally be considered a nice dress by a commoner could probably be gotten for about 10 gold pieces.
The guard stops them at the gate and looks over everything, which seems to be in order. He mentions that there has been news that Duke Melenova's daughter is missing and asks if you know anything about it. He also asks you who the healer is.[/sblock]

[sblock]Ethranor says, with an annoyed voice, that one of his stupid friends wants to chose some stupid gift for his even more stupid lover (although not half bad, wink wink), but he needed to head out of town for a while on business and wanted Ethranor to do him a favor. Sigh.
The point is, neither I have any idea of what would be an appropriate color for a dress...you know, I see in two dozens of colors at most...I have no idea of what is the difference between black, or night blue or dark gray...crazy women, anyway, thus I brought a healer...she is a friend of mine and has a better taste.
Ethranor will ask what happened to the daughter of duke Melanova, and then go to buy both dresses.[/sblock]

[sblock=Ethranor] The healer stares at Ethranor, bewildered for the most part. Meanwhile, the guard tells him that he doesn't know anything else and was just told to ask people about it, and that he's free to pass.
Passing into the high ward Ethranor makes his way to a well known tailer who he knows usually has a large number of ready made dresses on display that just might fit Diane. The healer looks around and with her help, he picks out a pretty violet dress that's not overly ornate or gaudy. The kind of garment that a naturally beautiful girl like Diane would commonly wear.
The old woman looks around at all the beautiful garments on display. All of which are fit for a noble, and have corresponding prices. She doesn't pick out any for herself though, resigned to the idea that all of these are far too good for her.[/sblock]
I didn't think of this before so it's not going to be a problem this time but in the future, buying expensive clothes like this will cost a percentage extra if you're buying the display versions. Usually you'd have to have it tailor made and everything, but if you buy the display versions they're the best ones, and they need to be replaced so they'll cost more. Just think of how the fast food always looks better in comercials.

[sblock]While looking at the wonderful and expensive clothes, Ethranor finds himself thinking about his first lover...and the fact that she is currently the young wife of a famous young noble, a paladin. Half lost in melancholy, his attention wanders and and ,distracted, he picks a sober dress, costing less than 75 gp for the healer. He doesn't really pay any attention to her eventual protests, or anything else for the matter. He is just going to pay and go back to the tavern, silent and lost in thoughts.[/sblock]

[sblock=Ethranor]The healer does protest at first, but when she notices Ethranor's sudden mood swing, she decides to stop bothering him about it, and silently follows him back to the tavern. By the time they get back it is nearly time for the tavern to open, and Ethranor sees the proprietor through the window, and after getting his attention is quickly let in. He notices the familiar face of Elly look up at him curiously from behind the counter though with no hint of recognition.
OOC: Total cost of the dresses is 105 gold.[/sblock]

Ethranor heads up and gives Diane her dress. He still wears a half smile, but he is not exuberant like before. He advises her that her father is searching for her and they had better move, while coming up with a good story for him.

[sblock=Ethranor]Diane seems to be sleeping peacefully, and doesn't notice Ethranor enter the room. Which isn't surprising considering the ordeal she's just been through, she's likely exhausted.[/sblock]

Ethranor stares at the sleeping Diane, then turns and directs a helpless words towards the healer. She can't sleep all day! The more time goes before she returns back to her palace, the more questions her father will have for her! He will turn the city upside down. You wake her up, or I will do it...
