Captain Frostwind (played by MasterWinter)

Veryan would stare quizzically a moment at what was the explanation given to him about his prize. It did look odd, and sounded just as odd. However. He would take it within his gloved hands, finding it odd feeling, and giving thanks for the prize.
SERENA maid servant villager (played by Tusitala) Topic Starter

Serena had spent quite some time helping Ayah get changed, putting on accessories and a nice hairdo.

She was almost finished and willing to bring Ayah back when Taff knocked.

"Oh a brush for a furry guest? Yes of course" agreed Serena handing Taff a spare silver brush before returning to Ayah

"All sorted my lady" assured Serena having helped her even with the shoes and Serena opened the door too to make the task easy

"Please take my arm or shoulder and I will guide you back to the Great Hall" suggested and offered Serena, happy to lead the way
TAFF warlock druid serf vamp (played by Tusitala) Topic Starter

By the time Taff had gone to find and fetch a brush for Seren and returned to Ryoko's side, the icy spell had been accomplished and the tar on the furry guest was all but gone. Even so, Taff brought the silver brush to Seren all the same.

"Excuse me, here is a brush, if required" presented Taff in a soft whisper, offering the item

He wouldn't mind brushing the fur or giving the brush over and continue with his duties, his eyes trailing off to the similar looking boxes, curiosity peaking, frowning at the potential trouble these boxes could unleash, his magic warning him no good could come out of this
Ayah and her family (played anonymously)

Ayah “ thank you this means so much to me. If I may I ask one last favor? I forgot to bring a guide and I’m afriead of getting getting lost. Could I have a guide? I’m so sorry to be a burden.” She gave Serena gift are rare necklace a magical one one at that. Which was rare and made mostly by ayah people. She grabbed Serena arm.
Cysgod (played by Riik)

Seren sought to keep out of the confusion unfolding in the hall. As much as they felt the need to observe to find some semblance of bearing, it was all getting very... weird... they indeed welcomed the distraction of the brush - not that they understood what it was.

Seren tentatively took the brush in their lower pair of hands and converged the rest of the four limbs to it to roll it around between them gently. Which was no help to their understanding of the object. Maintaining a loose balance of the object between their palms, they glanced up at Taff questioningly, head tilted. The manner in which they held the brush was that of someone who had never handled such a thing before.
Ryoko and her daughter (played anonymously)

Ryoko was a little better. But pale. “ I guess 2nd one.” She felt weaker and that being was annoying her.

Serena nodded and smiled

"I shall love to be your handmaiden for the day, I normally tend to the lady Morgana but she is somewhat busy and absent today" explained Serena "Besides she has Beatrix as her personal maid" assured Serena

"I can bring you to a nice setty, so that you can sit down and listen in on the conversations and even describe what they are doing from time to time, so as to not overwhelm you" smiled Serena slowly walking her to the high backing comfortable chair
MERTHYR royal knight vamp (played by Tusitala) Topic Starter

Prince Merthyr immediately came over to The Madman, eager to see what those boxes might contain, the thought of curses and troubles far from his mind.

"Welcome to my home and kingdom, good sir, and how generous of you to bring presents to share, such kindness must be rewarded... please... help yourself to drinks and food as required" invited and welcomed Merthyr pleased to see the house in relatively good order and good mood, even if magic was evident and palpable in the air.

His father was sound asleep, there was little chance of him awakening after that hit to the head, so long the servants kept quiet and the guests were gone by the time the king came around... no harm in having a little fun and indulgence
Ayah and her family (played anonymously)

She nodded. “ thank you Serena. It means the world to me. I’m honored and sorry to be a burden. Please tell me more about this place. Im eager to learn about this place and people. Taff seems interesting. He a interesting character. What is Merthyr like? I heard of him and never meet him or anything.” She let Serena guide her and tell her where she could sit down.
The Madman (played by Burrito)

"Ah, not a bad choice either!" It said as it opened the crate, revealing a small dagger with a curved blade. "This little beaty will cause anyone struck by it to become completely and utterly hammered!" It said as it removed the weapon, holding it with both hands, and being careful not to cut itself. "As with everything, however, there's a catch. This toy has to be soaked in either vinegar, alchohol, or blood for at least an hour, which will cause the effect to last all day." It held out the blade to her as it spoke. "Rather fun thing, isn't it?"
Clan MacGregor (played by MasterWinter)

The Father daughter pair silently watched the oddity unfold near by, both in a semi mirrored look of arms crossed and shaking of their heads.

"Taff." Jean spoke up. "The Lady Ryoko is looking quite unwell. Where might the bedchambers be, so I may escort her to them?"
MERTHYR royal knight vamp (played by Tusitala) Topic Starter

Merthyr looked at the dagger that the Madman had given and the explanation and consequences of its usage

"Most fascinating" agreed Merthyr eager to see what next might be hiding in those boxes, thus, standing close by to watch with great attention to the newly arrived magus?
TAFF warlock druid serf vamp (played by Tusitala) Topic Starter

Taff had a small smile on his face when the creature handled the brush, clearly, a new artefact for them that they had never seen before.

"I shall have a servant come and assist you with the brush, if you would like.... Wesley is quite a patient man, or Beatrix, she is quite skilled in its usage" offered Taff pointing at the two servants that were giving drinks and small snacks, letting Seren choose which of those two should be at their service.

He was most alarmed at the fascination and enthusiasm that prince Merthyr was displaying towards the mage, quickly coming over to lady Jane no sooner she shouted out his name.

"Excuse me..." muttered Taff leaving Seren and hurrying over to the warrior

"Lady Jean, I am not at all comfortable leaving his majesty's side, nor his keen and close interest in those boxes" muttered Taff in a low voice "If you could close in on his majesty and keep a close eye on him... just in case... I would appreciate it" muttered Taff

"Do not worry about lady Kyoko I shall tend to her needs, personally" assured Taff, more than willing to assist the fellow draconic magic wielder
Cysgod (played by Riik)

The choice, to Seren, was seemingly an arbitrary one. Choosing between strangers of a species they had only just encountered was not easy. And Seren didn't have the first clue what the choice was all about, regardless.

As far as Seren was the aware, the brush was part of some strange social ritual. That was the extent of their understanding. They had not had the context to tie it to grooming, though the handle did seem to suggest it was a tool of some kind. It did not look dangerous, however.

Dropping their lower arms to fidget the fingers together nervously by their knees, Seren held the brush up to Taff with the other pair. It was confusion and not rejection, given they were unaware at what the brush was even for. As equally a request of 'you choose' as it was one of 'why don't you do it?'.

Unfortunately, Taff was already turning to leave, and they were left standing there in the pose of attempting to hand it over to a much taller being who was now gone. Awkwardly, they slowly withdrew their arms and glanced around timidly. Struck with the confusion and anxiety of the pressure of a choice that they had no understanding of, Seren ultimately froze up and gazed down at the brush, which they had brought back to a position by their chest. Clasping it tightly in their hands, they manoeuvred it close to their torso - more as though they thought it would be bad to loose it than any attachment to it. Their lower arms cupped their hands around back of the other pair as they cradled the object, lowering their posture through the compression of their leg joints and curling their tail around their general position.

Though Seren wasn't sure whether or not they wanted anyone's attention or not, they did seem to at least attempt to lock eyes on the designated servants when possible, their expression one of anxiety and a desire for help. They even let their gaze drift to some of the more friendly-looking guests half-hoping for them to assist as well. The strangeness was simply too overwhelming to act with initiative themselves.
Ryoko and her daughter (played anonymously)

Ryoko had never used her magic the way she just did before and used a lot of focus and energy. She looked at Taff. She smiled. “ I’m glad your idea worked.” She said weakly. Her body was tired from such focus and using such powerful ice magic as the tar was really strong magically. Her color was fading.
Captain Frostwind (played by MasterWinter)

Since no one was answering either himself or Jean, the Captain took matters into his own hands as he looked to Ryoko.

"My Lady, if you'd permit me, I'll try locating the bedchambers and take you to a bed. Or I can help you however it is you need to help you feel better."
Ryoko and her daughter (played anonymously)

“ water..” She was burning up and being a ic mage that was really not a good sign, she had used to much power. Plus heat and water dragon magic did not go well together.
Captain Frostwind (played by MasterWinter)

The Captain would look around the room, soon going over and looking for a cup of water. Once he spotted one, the Captain gently snagged it and brought it to Ryoko.

"Here you are, my lady."

Hands the cup of water to Ryoko.
Ryoko and her daughter (played anonymously)

She took the water. “ thanks..” the water helped a little. But not a lot. “ thanks captain.” She she smiled. “ you ok?” She looked at Taff and the captain and smiled. She was glad she got dragged onto this mess.
Captain Frostwind (played by MasterWinter)

"I could fetch you more water, if you are in need of it." The Captain offered.

He'd no idea how much more water she was in need of, and he felt responsible to look after her while they were present in Camelot.

"I'm fine. I'm concerned about you."
