"Well, there's only one of those--its called the Waterfall Room. How long would you like it?"

Rystil:

[sblock]She nods and takes his hand. "Absolutely!"

As they make their way to the shop, Talia asks, "So, Subterfuge, aside from the Empyreal Shards, what has been going on around Eldiz?"[/sblock]

"Well, there's only one of those--its called the Waterfall Room. How long would you like it?"
[/SBLOCK]"Well, we can start with 2 hours, and can we pay for any more we may need later?"

*Subterfuge smiles and squeezes Talia's hand gently, leading her towards the Merchant's Ward.*

"So, Subterfuge, aside from the Empyreal Shards, what has been going on around Eldiz?"

"Hmm...well, there's always lots of things going in here, as you know. We've had a few celebrities visit, I guess, but nothing much interesting except the Shards since you heard last."

[Dark Nemesis]

Rystil:

[sblock]She gently squeezed his hand in return, and allowed him to lead the way to the Merchant's Ward. She listened to what he had to say, while occasionally glancing at the outfits displayed in the windows. No doubt about it, Dolathi fashions were the best out of all the worlds she had visited. She had missed the fine and elaborate clothing that her people favored... the clothing on most other worlds seemed dull by comparison.

"Well, I suppose the Empyreal Shards is excitement enough," she replied, looking back to Subterfuge with a smile.[/sblock]

*The Feldori nods and smiles.*

"Sounds like a plan. That'll be 24 credits then."

"Sounds like a plan. That'll be 24 credits then."

Kirkesh settles up (unless Vanessa insists, at which point he won't argue), takes the key, gets directions, and then walks arm in arm with Vanessa back to their room. When they arive, he opens the door and lets her in first, so she see the room herself.

"With the shards and your return, there's enough excitement now to give me chills," Subterfuge replies with a smile, as he guides Talia through the Merchant's Ward to one store in particular, "Ah, here we are. Glamour is the finest dressmaker in all of the Known Spheres, and she has a very special dress today for a very special girl."
[/SBLOCK]

 

[Dark Nemesis]

Rystil:

[sblock]Her jaw dropped when she saw what store he was leading her to. Sure, everyone knew of Glamor, her dresses were renouned as the most beautiful, and the most expensive as well. She did a quick tally of her current funds, then double checked her math. However, no matter how many times she added and re-added, the total was not nearly enough to be able to afford one of Glamor's dresses.

She tried to remove the expression of panic on her face. "I-I don't know, Subterfuge. It is true that he dresses are very beautiful, but..." she wracked her brain, trying to come up with an excuse to save her from embarrassment.[/sblock]

"Celimene?" Zarina calls.

*A full-busted Rowaini girl with chestnut-brown hair, a large smile, and a two-piece bathing suit beckons for the two to follow, reaching the end of the hallway and leading the two into a large room, filled with what seems to be a large indoor lake, complete with a beautiful cascading waterfall and plenty of smiling, chatting, laughing people, both men and women, but all wearing two-piece (for women) and one-piece (for men) bathing suits. All around the room, there are many doors, which seem to lead into private baths.*

*She unlocks the door at the end of the room, opening it gently to reveal the room inside and holding it open, motioning for her two clients to enter ahead of her.*

*The Waterfall Chambre is furnished with a beautiful blue decor, including a set of cute light-blue towels neatly folded on a reclining chair by the side of the pool. Crystal clear and noticably natural, the water steams up from below, bubbling gently as it does, gently caressing the sides of the natural rock bottom of the pool. Most magnificent of all is a large and energetic blue waterfall, cascading playfully down the rocks built along the walls and ceiling and pouring downwards, creating a special spot near the back of the pool where a bather can luxuriantly bask underneath the waterfall.*
