The Ball; Begin EE... Now!

The ballroom was massive, probably the largest room that some of the people in the group have ever been in. Sparkling chandeliers hung from above, candles and roaring fires from fireplaces illuminated the room. The room was decorated with white marble statues and colorful tapestries. Glass windows lined the walls except for the wall with the stairwell and the wall for the throne. There were tables with an abundance of delicious looking food and waiters constantly moving through the crowds offering the lords and ladies their dishes/brews.

The contrast between Kelvendar nobility/military was quite obvious. Men wore armor or their military uniforms. The ladies wore dresses but seemed to have the same authoritative aura as Sybille (except Sybille’s aura was over nine thousand). The Alexieran’s dressed in elegant clothing more befitting nobility than the militaristic Klevendarians. Also the Alexierans didn’t carry weapons… Lots of weapons.

“Presenting Prince Alaric, Lady Melir, Lady Reala, Lady Nienna, and Sir Luther.” The announcer cried out.

Alaric stepped down the steps into the ballroom. He was dressed in uniform this time rather than heavy armor (though he almost preferred that). It was a black and red outfit with gold trim, unlike his armor it better showed off his fit figure, though as muscular and athletic as he was, he paled in comparison to his father.

The king of Kelvendar seated at the opposite side of the room was decorated in black and crimson armor with the emblem of their country printed on the piece of armor, beyond the other parts of the ceremonial armor, he wore a robe around his shoulders of a similar color scheme. Atop his head was a golden and silver crown with rubies set into it. Next to his throne was his favorite axe and mighty spear, Gungir. Even sitting down, the king looked like a giant. He had broad shoulders and arms thick as most men’s necks. Should the man stand, he probably would stand 7’ tall. He had a pepper and salt beard that was well kept and short dark brown hair that was going gray. King Malic was perhaps the most handsome and strongest looking sixty year old in the kingdom. He wore the same stoic look Alaric usually wore, however his Sybille favored his piercing gaze. Malic

Beside him stood Prince Hasan, the youngest of all the royal family. He was the shortest in the family and the least impressive. He appeared frail and boyish despite being a young adult. The young monk wore robes fitting of a follower of the Anahera. Unlike most of the Kelvendar nobles, he had no weapon besides a tome.

Next to him was the royal family’s head maid, Tacey Lanceheart. She wore plain maids outfit and wore her red hair back in pigtails. A kind smile stayed fixed on her face as she stood awaiting any orders from the king. Some of the people may be already familiar with the maid (since she made Keleana and Neinna’s dresses).

Luther was dressed in lighter armor, but was not much better presented than normal. He was no man of great wealth and was still in part on duty.

((As long as you have an important position, in the military, or a noble, you can attend the ball. If you aren’t approved, you can’t join at all.))

Sybille was a little late to the ball, though this was because of her dislike of these sort of social gatherings. She didn't put it on the top of her priority list, though she did intend to come, which was a rarity in itself.

As tempting as it was to enter in her usual, tailored suit of red-violet armor, Kelvendar's princess had opted to wear a chainmail bikini long burgundy taffeta dress, delicately hand decorated with beads. Her long raven hair -- normally tightly plaited into a braid -- was now let down to her waist. This, paired with her curvaceous figure and ample cleavage (she couldn't really help that, to be honest), revealed Sybille's more feminine side...

Well, sort of... she still socked someone who dared to make a lewd comment on her way in. :NomNomNom:

Since Keleana’s player sucks at describing dresses, he asks you to picture Keleana
In this dress (except, youknow, made for her <.<)

Keleana felt somewhat uncomfortable in her Tacey-made dress.
For one, it was a dress. She was never the type to like pretty dresses.
Secondly, it was what kind of dress it was.
She silently cursed at Tacey for pretending to listen to what she wanted in a dress and then making something else entirely.

If it wasn’t for the fact there was no time before the ball she’d gotten it re-made.

When she got over the annoyance of her wardrobe, she looked around the room, and was in awe at the size and extravagance of the place.
And when she looked at the people she couldn’t help but feel out of place.

I don’t belong here at all… She thought to herself.

Outwardly though, she showed no sign of what went on in her head, and merely curtsied when her name was announced, then walked into the hall surprisingly lady-like.
She did know how to act as a lady, even though she never did.
Ofcourse, that didnt stop her from bringing her Elfire tome to nuke anyone who hit on her.

“Well well, Prince, seems your family knows how to party.”

Roslynn followed Alaric in.
She wore a red, tight (particularly in the middle), strapless dress that clung to her skin. It flowed all the way down to her feet. She also wore black sleeves and high heels. It was strange to walk in, but she managed. Rose also had a dagger or two strapped to her legs under her dress.

"Well, let's get this over with. I want to get out of this damn thing!"

Nienna followed Keleana so she was in order with the announcer. She'd stick close to who she knew lest she get lost in all the people.

She wore a light blue, backless, silk dress (mainly because of her wings) with a white trim. She had a couple bracelets and a ring on each hand, or finger in the ring's case. She obviously couldn't keep them, but they were certainly very pretty. She was very happy with it. She felt a little strange wearing it all, though.

She curtsied as she was instructed to, though it was a little awkward. She smiled at Tacey and waved at her, as well as anyone else who smiled at her. She stayed quiet, though, not sure what to say or do.

Nicci wore a frilly, long white dress adorned with small pearls, rubies, moonstones, and diamonds. She didn't like it, but it was what her parents had chosen. It wasn't really for her anyway.

She had heard someone was also getting married at this year's ball. She wondered who while she waiting to be announced to enter like her parents had told her.

Alexis stood aside from the rest of his family keeping a watchful eye on the youngest ones.
He was garbed in a midnight blue dress robes and a lilac cape with his hair neatly plaited.

He flicked through a tome of light magic out of boredom and kept a close eye on Nicci as he had recently become aware of here in discresions, while waiting for himself and the rest of his family to be announced.

Alaric gave Keleana a little grin. "I prefer the festivals. They are far more exciting than any ball. Far less formality.” He paused to consider her expression and lovely dress then offered a more sincere smile. “You look nice. Don’t worry about having to talk to many people. For the most part they have their own agendas.”

The prince turned to look back to Roslynn and chuckled a bit. “Don’t worry; I’ll try to get us out of here in an hour or two. On the bright side, you look dangerously lovely.” He said to her, trying to offer some comfort to dull the pain of dressing fancy.

Because the GM is lazy, the announcer reads off each of the entering guests.

Several of the kelvendar soldiers perked up when they saw Princess Sybille enter. A few went over to chat to her about various things, more specifically the port and the happenings there. Most of the lower level soldiers admired the warrior princess. Alaric was more of a brother in arms to them, Sybille was like an idol.

The king's expression brightened when he saw her. With one of his massive calloused hands, he beckoned her over. He did the same for Alaric. The prince sighed and glanced back to the ladies plus knight and gave an apologetic grin. “I’ll be back. Try not to have too much fun while I’m gone.”

Nienna’s entrance earned a substantial amount of attention. Amongst the Alexierans, there were scowls if not glares. The Kelvendarian men and women looked intrigued and surprised to see a heron laguz at their ball. The room buzzed with conversation about why she was there and where she came from. Tacey perked up and waved back a little to Nienna. She would notice her giving Hasan a sharp jab with her elbow and ushered him forward to Nienna and friends. He shuffled over to them and offered a meek smile. “G-g-good evening. It is nice to see my brothers loyal friends here t-tonight. Good evening, lady M-melir, Lady Reala, Sir Luther…” He paused at Nienna and looked down. “And I’m pleased to meet you, L-l-lady Nienna. M-my brother w-wrote about you in his letter. Pleased to meet you, m’lady. I am P-prince Hasan.” He gave a little bow to her. He was extremely timid.

“Good evening, M’lord, M’ladies.” Tacey curtsied. “I hope my seamstress work is to your liking. You all look quite extraordinary tonight.” For some reason Nienna would find Tacey’s soul guarded toward her, perhaps even suspicious. Though there was no indication on the outside, she always wore a warm smile.

“Announcing the arrival of Princess Nicole of Velsere, Lady Signum Heidral, and Prince Alexis of Velsere.” The crier yelled out as the princess came out. The mass of Alexieran nobility became a’buzz with chatter about her arrival. The Kelvendarians only regarded the trio with empty and disinterested stares before turning back to their conversations. The apathy towards Velsere was all too apparent and they weren’t afraid to show it.

Keleana grinned a little at the prince.
"I see. I wouldnt mind a little less formality. The dress isnt ugly... it's just not me. Tacey didnt listen to what I wanted AT ALL."
Her urge to kill Tacey was rising again.

"For once, Rose, I agree with the prince. And look on the bright side, atleast your dress suits you."
She stopped a waiter to get herself and any of her companions who wanted to something to drink.
She got wine herself, and sipped it while watching the prince leave.
"I wonder what they're discussing."




Signum could only smirk as the announcer called their names... in a rather surprising order, no less.
She watched the apathic Kelvendarians with a cold stare.
We're not good enough for your high standards, are we?

Unlike most women at the ball Signum wore her military uniform.
Lucky for her her princess hadnt insisted on a dress
It was white, with blue accents scattered across it.
"Your Highness, I'd request you stay within eyesight of me at all times during this ball."
While Nicci might have the time to consider who'd be the unlike married couple, she had more important things in mind, namely her princess' security.
She let one hand idly lest on her sword, which rested on her hips in it's scabbard.

Alexis rolled his eyes boredly.

"Its just another droll party in attempt to mend relations I wonder why mother and father made us come here"

He glanced at Nicci and hoped she had no implement of death under that dress.

Alexis turned his gaze to Signum and his voice came out melodicly in a very rich french accent.

"Signum I expect you to keep my younger sister in sight at all times... I feel that some of these kelvendarians can not be trusted by the rude air they seem to be letting off"

He sneered slightly at the apathic kelvendarians.

"The royal family deserves more trust than the common folk and nobility of Kelvendar but make sure you keep a firm pair of eyes on Prince Alaric... I don't want him to soil my dear sister"

He closed the tome he was reading and put it away in his belt pouch and scanned the room.
His sea green eyes spied Nienna and he gasped quietly.

"dear sister, do you see what I see or are my eyes casting illusions of grandeur? Is that lovely creature a heron?"

His eyes looked at Nienna, enraptured by her unearthly grace. if Nieena caught his gaze he would turn a charming smile her way.

Rose frowned, "That's not really a bright side, I'm fairly certain at least one person is leering....but then again at least that means I get to hurt them. <3" the evil grin returned as she took a glass of wine from Keleana.

"Good evening, Prince Hassan." she awkwardly curtsied, wondering if the studdering on her name was because he was afraid of her or because of....well, him. Probably both, "It's been awhile since I saw you last. Glad to see you haven't shriveled up in your little cave yet." she gave him a little grin.

---

Nicci wanted to laugh at the lack of interest to Velsere. Why are we even here?

She looked at her brother over her shoulder, "Soil me? What are you talking about, Alex? I don't think they're so dumb as to rape me out in the open here."

She raised an eyebrow when he mentioned a heron and looked to where he was. "Yes, I believe that is a Heron, surprising." Nicci looked back to his face, she laughed a bit "...You seem to be bewitched by her....You always were fascinated by pretty things, and she's certainly very pretty...."

"It's a bright side alright. I get leered at AND I feel awckward in this white... thing." Keleana replied to Rose.
"But perhaps as the alcohol flows more, we can get away with hurting people who get too friendly."

Keleana followed Rose over to Prince Hassan, and curtsied alongside her, more gracefully then her friend.
"Greetings your highness."
Inwardly she couldnt help but laugh at Hassan. He was rather... shy it seems.
She then turned to Tacey.
"...Tacey. The dress is not quite what I imagined it."
Her voice had some barely restrained irritation in it.

-----------

Signum held back the urge to call Alexis' remark pointless.
"Ofcourse, M'lord, I have no intention of letting her out of my sight. But as Her Highness says, I doubt there is any real danger of her becoming soiled here."
She frowned at Alexis.
"Nor does he seem the kind of man to do such a vile deed, if the stories do him justice."

She took a glance at Nienna, but seeing the Heron girl as no real threat, she didnt concern herself with the girl further.
"Princess, might I suggest mingling a little? Perchance they'll be less apathic if you do."
She walked over to the princess and straightened her shoulders a little.
"And mind your posture."

Nienna wasn't surprised at all by the scowls and glares. She expected it, after all. She frowned a bit at them. I knew it....well, at least they aren't violent, I guess.

She looked around a saw someone staring right at her, not it in hate, but in wonderment or maybe bewitchment. It was kind of creepy, really. She smiled back and waved at him.

She turned back to everyone when she heard and unfamiliar voice that happened to be Hassan's, she smiled and curtsied for him, "Oh, so you're Alaric's brother! It's an honor to finally meet you, Prince Hassan. "

Alexis eyes widen and clutched his chest lightly when Nienna looked and smiled at him.

"I must get to know this charming creature... maybe even paint her"

He turned to his sister.

"yes mingling sounds very good and jolly"

He then leaned closer to his sister and whispered in her ear.

"I hope you have nothing disgraceful hidden underneath that skirt like a sword? I would hate to find out my dear lady of a sister to be a local urchin and a ruffian, no?"

With that he glided of across the ball room towards Nienna as soon as he would approach her he would smile again, his eyes appearing even more charming now that they where up close.

"My my, who could you be?"

He smiled at Nienna and ignored the rest of the party.

Nicci sighed. She had wanted to, but she'd rather not be nagged at by everyone more, so she left her weapons. Yet another person to add to the list of people who disapproved of her.

She followed her brother to the Heron, curious why a Heron would be here.
