[QUOTE="William Ronald, post: 1960308, member: 426"] Al'Akbar rises as the representatives of Iuz arrive. "II am honored to receive the gifts of your lord. I graciously accept your gifts, and I have several gifts for Emperor Iuz." A huge chest, carved of precious wood, set with gold and gems is brought forth by a genie. "This ornate chest contains what was wrongfully stolen from your lord with my original missive. Additionally, beyond the precious woods, gems, and items of great craftsmanship, I have placed a rare book detailing the first defeat of the Whispered One. I also offer a compliment as well, as I found your lord to be most resourceful in his own defeat of the Whispered One. " "I had hoped to receive some diplomatic reply from an ally of your lord, a warrior of magnificent skill whose mind is far keener than any blade that he may wield. Perhaps the Wolf God will send his ambassador to my court. I hope that no one interferred with the delivery of the missive I sent to him. I suspect that even the Whispered One pauses in considering fighting both Iuz, Lord of Demons, and the Wolf God." A man brings out what seems to be a series of chess boards arranged in tiers. There are seven boards in all, arranged in a U-shape. The last board on the right is higher than the others. "This is the Game of Thrones, a favorite of the ancient Baklunish Emperors. The shape of the boards is symbolic of the ultimate victory." Another man brings out a Tenser's floating disk, containing several jars of wine. "Finally, a gift that I think Emperor Iuz will enjoy." Two half-ogres, dressed in heavy armor, carry a rolled tapestry. Carefully, they spread it out. The rich threads, some of gold and other precious metals, and the gems show an image of the warrior Kas fighting Vecna, and chopping off the hand of the Whispered One. "Tell your lord that I am prepared to stand with him and the other leaders of Oerth against the Whispered One. I urge him and all leaders to avoid war with one another. If nation wars against nation, the Whispered One may appear in secret to offer help. Naturally, the price will seem small. Yet a common foe may soon be able to rule openly or in secret." The ambassadors are lead to their embassy, a fortress of black stone that seems to have a stark beauty. The gardens in the embassy have fruit trees and there are three fountains outside of the embassy's central tower. "Your embassy also awaits. I will find an ambassador for an embassy in Dorakaa."
