"To those who would know about prom...  I have gained a formal dress but, I am unfamiliar with the rituals of painting one's face and adorning one's self with the spoils of war.  What if there is no war to gain spoils from?  Where will one gain adornment then?  How vexing...  I wish this to go off perfectly, or the quest reward may be unwanted."

[Liz is tending her garden, and singing something in an odd language that if you use magic, understand magic, or are magic, but don't speak Lost Carcosan is one of the most frightening songs you've heard.  If you do understand it, its about clouds, butterflies and birdies.  She's planting butterfly bushes and lilacs]

[She's window shopping, pondering a bit, looking more at odds and ends than anything nice while humming the Auria for Everyone's soul, later she'll stop at the music store and play it on the piano while thinking]

[...That was a maddeningly vague answer.]

Some kind of spirit, then? It's pretty clear you aren't human.

"Are we not all some form of spirit? Even the metal folk who live by the dogma of science have something that presses them onward. The true answer to that is that I once was an avatar of power, but, now that I am on my own, I no longer know."

[riastrad-ridire.livejournal.com]

Fair enough, I guess.

[That was probably the best answer he'd get.]

"For the sake of inner tranquility sometimes we must endure tedium for a bit."

[riastrad-ridire.livejournal.com]
