[Maidhc O Casain]

Queen Máthair

The Queen hosts your group in a small reception room, formally yet comfortably furnished and appointed.

Abracham knocks softly on the door, opening it at the command from inside, and you are in the presence of your Queen.

She is a striking woman. She is six feet tall, and appears muscular and fit without any real bulk - athletic. Her hair is fiery red and her eyes a deep emerald green, but her skin has none of the paleness usually associated with that hair color - she is quite tan. She has that same indefinable force of personality you've come to recognize in Dílis, magnified about tenfold. You are drawn to this woman, and despite the fact that she is your Queen you find yourselves relaxing subtly - you are at your ease with her.

She speaks softly. "Thank you Abracham," and your guide bows slightly and leaves. She then turns her regard on you, examining the group thoughtfully for a few moments before inviting you to sit.

Queen Máthair

"Gealach tells me you are quite a remarkable group of individuals, and that he has every confidence you've been able to discharge your requested service to me successfully. Please make yourselves comfortable and we'll begin your debriefing. Would you like something to drink?"

 

[Scotley]

Gavril

Bowing in acknowledgement of the praise, Gavril makes his way to a seat, but does not sit struggling not to limp for once. "It is a pleasure to meet you my Queen," he says bowing again. "A drink would be most welcome."

OCC - Mike - could you describe the current room, please?

Béar

Béar turns his head slightly so that his Queen can not see the left side of his face. He nods in approval: "I think we all could use a drink. Thank you my Queen."

The Small Audience Room

OCC - Mike - could you describe the current room, please?

The square room is just large enough to hold the current party and the Queen comfortably - there's plenty of room to move around without bumping into each other or the furniture, but it's small enough to promote fairly intimate conversation. The furniture is formal yet comfortable, made of a dark wood and arranged for casual conversation. It is an interior room - no windows. There are a few tapestries and paintings on the walls, of various types of scenes.

Queen Máthair

After ascertaining your drink preferences, the Queen moves to a small bar and pours small ale, watered wine, or water as each of you indicated. She serves you herself, sees you comfortably seated, and indicates that you should proceed with your account of events.

Skath

Skath will take a very small glass of wine, just to taste what they serve.

Skath

"I think Bear should recap the events."

Queen Máthair

At Skáth's suggestion, Queen Máthair turns expectantly to the member of the party already sworn to her service.

"Béar, would you mind? The rest of you, feel free to express yourselves as necessary to insure I have an accurate account - don't stand on ceremony, please."
