Dancing and Singing Once Again!

A small group gathers in the tavern: a dragon, an elf, a gypsy and a faun, and for one day, there was laughter, singing and dancing at the Restless Spirits instead of strife and unrest.

Linwe smiles at the faun "Tis good to see someone dance in here...tis nae often folk do
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Swith..used to play...but since the demon rum...her playing as slackened off'
Geldriia Zemlja smiles brightly at the fay "That's what we need, a change of mood, all this talk of drown and demons will drive a person to drink, and I mean to drink for the wrong reasons." *she laughs a bit and and claps along with Dahl*
Linwe smiles "Tis too bad I didna bring my harp with me..
Dahl Babii smiles at the positive responce she is having
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Ift times I sit in the meadow and play and dance...in the flowers...'
Geldriia Zemlja licks her lips a bit "I leaned this from a lad I once new.. so bear with me. 8she starts an even note with her voice and starts to sing a bit matching the fawns pace

Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, some men love a wind witch, because she'll never touch the ground.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And others like a water witch, with one they'll e'er be found.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And some men like a fire witch, though she'll keep them on their guard,
Linwe smiles and laughs "Oh..Swith wil love ye for sure!
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ But the ladies like a stone mage, for he'll always keep it hard. *she grins and continues*
Linwe blushes
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a wind mage,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ eyes like a duskhorn doe,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I truly loved her,
Salazar Rage laughs as the color rises to Linwe's face. "im sure swith has told worse linwe."
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ for the way she knew to blow. *winks*
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Aye..well..some of hers I dunna understand'
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a fire mage,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ though we fought and fought and fought.
Linwe looks confused at that line .....
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I loved my fire mage,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ for she was always hot.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a water mage,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ for days and days and days,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I loved my water mage,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ for all her slippery ways. *grins*
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a Templar tall,
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Seems this lad...got around a lot..'
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ her braids worn in a crown.
Dahl Babii giggles
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ V
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I loved my Templar best,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ when she had me kneeling down.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a Kadian lass,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ she gave it to me for free,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I loved my Kadian lass,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ when she was paying -me-.
Linwe's eyebrows raise "The rest...wanted money?? A..Templar???
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved an Oash wench,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ in bed we'd freely play.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And if I wore my fake elf ears, *she winks at Linwe*
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ she'd love me all the day.
Linwe frowns at the thought of such a thing as fake elf ears
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a Reynolte proud,
Reaching up, Linwe places a hand on one of her ears and folds it gently between her fingers thinking
Salazar Rage grins in good humor at the lusty barroom song
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ a lady through and through.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ And oh, I loved my Reynolte proud,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ for the common things she'd do.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved a Faleish girl,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ though could never call her nice.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Her philosophy was quite unique,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ She did -everything- with spice.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved an Azia girl,
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Just how many..did this lad love????Ye would think he be worn out!'
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ all dressed in white and blue.
Geldriia Zemlja tries to keep a straight face from Linwe's comment
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ She completely stole my heart away,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ and then my moneybelt too.
Dahl Babii laughs hysterically, shooting cider out her nose
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ Oh, once I loved an Asenn girl,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ all dressed in white and blue.
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ She lay me down and raised me up,
Geldriia Zemlja: ♪ and then we began anew. *she laughs and takes a little bow*
Dahl Babii cheers & claps "Wonderful!"
Salazar Rage almost falls from his seat as cider drops from Dahl's face.
Linwe blinks and stares "That were quite..erm...entertaining....and as I said..Swith will find a good friend in ye if ye sings such as that
Salazar Rage: that was quite great dear
Salazar Rage: thank you
Geldriia Zemlja smiles and blushes lightly at everyone praise "Thank you all, it's been so long since i sang a song or told a tale."
 Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Well the skill will be greatly appreciated here.....'
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'Swith be the local minstrel..and I be a bard of sorts...but hers and mine be way far apart in what we play and sing'
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'The humans here..they will find ye most entertaining'
Geldriia Zemlja: I tend to have a mix of styles, people like the bawdy ones i sing and the nicer ones too
Salazar Rage smiles " i find her very entertaining as well
Linwe (Linwe Zifanwe) says 'The dragons...*Linwe looks over to Salazar* ..especially the Ancient one and his mate..Saia..do enjoy a good bard circle

 Thank you to Linwe for the log and picture

Demon or Spider?

Casandra Shilova opens the door, coming into the tavern to see an unsual group "greetings all"
Justine: greetin's lady Cas
Ivarru: greetings fae
Salazar Rage looks at Swith "finish your rum and maybe you can have some later. it is a bit too strong for most." he turns at the mention of Cas
Swith the Scop (Cyneswith Luik) ducks a little to look underneath Ivarru's wing, then smiles: Oh, greetin's miss..then nods at the dragon, swigging some more rum: Aye.. I'll hold yer ta that offer...
Casandra: How is everyone this eve?
Salazar smiles at her " i am well."
Justine: I be doin' fine
Swith the Scop says 'I's alright miss.. 'ow's yerself?'
Casandra twitches her wings, settling them into place "I am fine. It seems humid to me though"
Swith the Scop says ''ave a rum or two an' yer'll nah care..'

Ivarru: what delightful new wings
Swith the Scop: Aye, it does seem a bit sticky
Casandra gives him a big smile "why thank you!" She considers and then decides against the rum "Could I have a mead please Justine?
Justine nods "Aye, one mead comin up"
Swith the Scop puts down her mug and picks up the last few eggs: 'ere, watch this salazar... I'll show yer 'ow ta juggle... although in truth, yer probably can't wi' yer dragon paws there...
Ivarru: i guesss it is only the elves who do not like to partake in some drink
Casandra walks over to the bar, trying to fit in near the dragons huge wings, wondering if perhaps she should glamor hers smaller to fit
Swith the Scop stands away from the counter and amuses herself juggling a while.
Justine fills up a mug for Cas and sets it by her "'ere ya go, milady"
Ivarru: its a wonder you can do that and still stand upright Swith
Salazar watches a moment before adding a small fireball he pulls from a nearby candle to the middle.
Casandra: oh SweetPea vastly prefers milk and pies, she thinks the rest of the fae are daft for liking to drink
Swith the Scop says 'pfft... nothin' to it... I's a natural entertainer, yer knows...'
Casandra: "thank you Justine" hands her two coins
Justine takes the coins with a smile "Yer welcome'
Swith the Scop blinks at the fireball, dropping an egg.
Justine: Tis a good thin' that was boiled
Swith the Scop catches the other two in one hand and backs away: 'ere... watch out wi' that fire...Near lost me eyebrows...'She looks down and kicks the broken boiled egg behind a barrel. comes back toward the counter and returns the eggs to the bowl, before picking up her mug again to have a sip.
Justine: Ivarru, you 'avin anythin'?
Ivarru: 'some rum will be great' He places a few coin on the bar
Justine nods and turns to fill a mug of rum. She brings the mug over and sets it next to Ivarru "'ere ya go"
Salazar picks up a second glass of his dragon whiskey and begins to sip
Swith the Scop finishes her rum, glancing at the dragon whiskey again.
Ivarru takes the mug. thank you fair maiden
Justine smiles 'Yer welcome'
Swith the Scop looks at Ivarru: 'ow many rums it take afore yer falls over, sir?
Casandra thinks there is no possibility that liquor would make him fall on his face
Ivarru: probably more than what is stocked in this bar
Swith the Scop says 'Aww... tha's nah fun...'
Ivarru: i prefer the bitter taste more than anything
Swith the Scop says 'I's decided I needs a drinkin' partner... nah fun when yer the only one havin' a good time about...'
Justine scoops up all the coins "That be true'
Swith the Scop says 'I'd take on that young stable lad, but I 'eard 'e can't even finish a tankard of ale...'
Ivarru takes a flask from his belt and pours a bit into his mug
Casandra shakes her head "He doesn't look as though he could take on much of anything, take a care with him"
Swith the Scop glances at the flask, then beyond, at Salazar's amber bottle: Eh... I's finished me rum, Salazar, sir...
Salazar pushes a glass at her with the back of his hand
Swith the Scop grins, watching the glass coming nearer: Don't mind if I do sir... thankin' yer...She picks up the glass and has a small sip. She swallows hard and coughs lightly.
Salazar laughs "same thing every time." sips his sedately and smiles in between sips
Swith the Scop has another sip of the dragon whiskey, taking it better now after the initial shock. She hiccups and glances at the door. says 'Oh, it be the other fae... greetin's miss...'
Casandra hears the door "greetings SweetPea"
Salazar stands " well i must be off for a bit, couple of things to attend to."
SweetPea giggles 'greetings Cas and Swith and Justine
Swith the Scop slurs slightly: Sweetpea... tha's yer name is it? She gives a wave to salazar: Be well sir... thankin' yer fer the drink...
SweetPea says with a smile "yes, that is my name. It was given to me a friend from a far away palce ' she giggles again
Salazar snaps his fingers and evaporates his bottle and glasses
Swith the Scop blinks at where the bottle was.She looks mildly disappointed and sips some more of her drink.
SweetPea goes closer to her queen when she notices the dark figure
Swith the Scop says 'Aye.... sweet pea. I'll try ta remember... ... but me memory nah so good sometimes...'
SweetPea laughs "your memory is excellent when it comes to tunes'
Casandra: come stand by me SweetPea. Do you remember Ivarru?
Swith the Scop nods: Aye... I reckons the songs takes up all the space...
Ivarru: why greetings little fae
SweetPea scowls "I have seen you talking to him and he chased me away once'
Ivarru: is this a friend of yours Casandra, she is a rather tiny fae
Casandra turns to him "yes, this is my good friend SweetPea". She then says "SweePea this is my friend and good advisor Ivarru"
SweetPea flits around and then stands still "an advisor?'
Swith the Scop hiccups, swaying a little as she sips some more dragon whisky.
Casandra: oh yes, he gives me excellent advice
SweetPea looks at her friend very closely "He is a demon! with all due respect, you are all too trusting my Queen'
Ivarru: of course I am gives me a unique prospective on things
Casandra nods "that is true, he is. Don't hold that against him"
Ivarru: swith here is my friend too though she will never admit to it in front of linwe
SweetPea says 'you really should be careful where you place your trust" and she remembers how mean he was to her when he chased her away.
Casandra shakes her head "oh Dear, you are so cautious. I don't think I am too trusting. I believe in giving everyone an opportunity, and he has been a staunch friend and never has he given me bad advice"
SweetPea screws up her eyes shut tight and casts a glamour on the demon. She grunts very deeply and waves her arm "A spider you shall appear to Cas" and she stamps her foot to seal the spell. Then says to all in an offhand way "Cas is afraid of spiders and this will make her distrust the demon like she should"
Ivarru: what trickery is this little one
SweetPea giggles 'just a little faery glamour. I have been practicing'
Casandra looks at her friend and doesn't believe her eyes, where he stood is a monsterously huge black spider with long hairy legs reaching out to her. She backs up quickly
SweetPea jumps up "oh my! it worked!'
Ivarru: what is wrong cassandra

Casandra pushes against the legs and finds she is trapped!!!!
SweetPea skips out nimbly from under the legs and giggles
Casandra screams "aAAcckK!!!"
Ivarru: what are you screamng about?
Casandraa falls onto the floor, laying face down and oblivious to all going on around her

Justine: Are ye okay, Lady Cas?
Ivarru: what is wrong with her
SweetPea shouts out to the demon "she sees you now as she should see you - a thing to be feared'
Ivarru: what have you done to her?
Casandra regains consciousness, sits and then stands shakily
SweetPea FeatherFeet says "I have done nothing to her'
Ivarru: liar
Justine helps Cas to stand
SweetPea puts her hand on her hips "fae don't lie"
Casandra: oh, ohhhh....I feel strange
Ivarru: if I must I will take you to the underdark and torture the answer out of you
SweetPea flies out of the door
Ivarru: what has that little fae done to her
Casandra looks around, sees Justine "thank you"
Justine: She seems alright, just shaken
Casandra looks up further, sees the huge spider again and bolts for the door
Justine: Cas??
Casandra screaks and runs out
Ivarru: hmmm

A New Fae Dragon

Lately Salazar, a new fae dragon came to the isle.

SweetPea and I gave him a tour of the harbor and village.

Ferdinand! You're visiting Arran!

I remember enjoying my father's storybook The Story of Ferdinand.
