Back at home the various party members set about their own
projects.
Hedge petitioned the Prince for a plot of land and some
funds to build an orphanage next to the cemetery.
The Prince researched the deep tentacles and found that, as
far as Narlock was concerned, the tentacles were a solved issue, having popped
up momentarily before being crushed by local adventurers including himself.
Justice made peace with his old gang and coerced them into a
combination campout & fort rehab project.
Marty worked on Mjelde’s coming out announcement, by first informing
his father before bringing her existence to the congregation.
Lex worked on shoring up his new office, until he
intercepted a missive from Relania Bell which he took to the Prince. It
contained a request for correspondence. Euwyn obliged, and a dinner party was
planned. Marty would bring Lumi. Euwyn would date Relania (officially). Lex
came with Giada. Justice and Hedge were employed as “chaperones”. The newly
opened Thrusty Leopard became the scene of huge argument of the Prince’s inner
circle. Voices were raised, insults exchanged and punches were thrown. The Lady
Bell stormed out, but Euwyn tracked her down and the pair slipped off to have a
nice evening out alone. Hedge bloodied Lex’s nose, and Giada escorted him away
before things got uglier. Justice, Marty & Hedge had a few more drinks as
they sat about discussing what happened. Unable to recover from the scandal,
the Leopard closed shortly thereafter.

ReplyDeleteMarty contacted Lady Bell, made peace and engaged her to speak with Lex on his behalf.
Lex and Laney had a delightful conversation full of constructive ideas and sexual tension.
Given the racy talk about the Prince and his new lady love's tryst, the Leopard manages to stave off closure and reopen as simply the The Leopard.
