Diplomatic Immunity--Preface: Vasha's Discovery, Part II

[Rystil Arden]

*Karya doesn't push any more, for the moment, as she enters the inn and is greeted by the smiling pink-haired woman behind the bar, probably the innkeeper that Karya had mentioned, Amity.*

"Karya, how are you? And who's your friend?"

"Hi Amity. This is Vasha. Listen, Vasha wanted to talk to me in one of your private rooms."

*Amity nods and smiles pulling out a blue key:*

"Here, take this room. It seems fitting. I'm sure you won't be long, so it's free of charge."

"Actually, Vasha doesn't have a room for the night, so here, take this and I'll buy the room for her."

*She hands over some pieces of paper to Amity.*

"Sure! I hope you have a wonderful stay, Vasha. And if you have some time later, come down and talk to me, okay?"

 

[Bront]

"Thank you Amity." Vasha smiles.

Vasha heads back with Karya to her room.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Amity smiles and waves to Vasha and Karya as the two Nymphs head to the second floor, where Vasha finds a door that matches the colour of her key. Turning the key in the keyhole, there is a bright flash of blue light, and then suddenly, Vasha finds herself along the side of a beautiful freshwater lake under a bright sunny sky, a few pretty little trees forming an archway behind her, no door in sight. There is a bed of downy soft flowers where one can lie under the sun if she likes, and near that is a bench made of stone.*

Vasha gasps "This is... amazing!"

She reaches out to embrace the world around her, wondering just how real it is. She giggles as puddles scampers about sniffing the area all excited.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"You like it? I am glad," Karya smiles, "This is your room, Vasha. It is protected from most Divinations and such too."

*Vasha embraces the world around her, feeling the warmth of nature smiling back at her...It is alive, but it doesn't have as much of a spirit as Arris. Then again, Arris has an unusually strong spirit, even considering how much she has suffered...*

 

[Bront]

"The spirit here is alive... It feels good."

"How much do you know about the politics of Arris and the current Crown?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Very basic details. The current Dragonemperor, and thus the royal family, is from House Valthyne, the oldest of the houses. I don't even remember his name, as they always call him the Dragonemperor, but I hear his daughter is quite a hellion."

 

[Bront]

"He's also known as the Demon Emperor, and his daugher, Lhyzra, is known for her cruelty and bloody obsessions. She executed my father, and apparently held his bloody head to her chest after she blew up his body...."

Vasha sighs "She is also my sister, and her boon companion my soul sister."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"That...that is very unusual."

 

[Bront]

Vasha nods. "Perhaps I best start from the begining..."

Vasha explains her trip to Arris, her journy with her soon to be dear brother Bertram to find Gralas, her encounter with Gralas, her trip back, her encounter and feeling in the inn, and then her trip to the city.

"Durring my trip to the city, I found the occasion to synergy with 2 different small springs, and durring my time with them, they healed, growing forth, and becoming much bigger. It was truely amazing, to synergize, connect with the spirit of Arris, and return her love by healing her wounds."
