Getting the band together

[Anastasia]

Going to make any sort of splashy entrance here?

[Corwin]

They will descend down the volcano's maw, with dragon statues lining up the shaft as they had during the festival to celebrate Amaryl ascending in truth. Yet this time, the dragons will breathe fire in Kascha's colors for the coming week, before reverting to a random selection of one of the Cauldron's three resident deities.

Kascha can plan the celebration once they arrive at the palace, so that it would suit her palate!

[Anastasia]

The people are here, cheering, chanting. Your name, Kascha's name. Celebrations have already begun, Kascha blushing and waving as she follows you. She's keeping close, blushing brighter and brighter with every step. Amid the rowdy cheers, the deep tidal wave of noise constantly crashing on you as work gives way to celebration?

Seira! I look away for just a little while and you've gotten ANOTHER? You're the the investment that keeps on paying out.

[Corwin]

I do try!

[Anastasia]

I really must come over and talk to you for this. I'll be there soon, tell your armies that I'm expected, dear.

[Corwin]

I doubt they could stop you! But sure, we'll be waiting!

[Anastasia]

Meanwhile Kascha walks along and waves, faster and faster, nudging you along.

[Corwin]

Seira is all to happy to follow! This is Kascha's moment, after all!

[Anastasia]

From here it's easy enough to slip away and to everyone - ack!

Amaryl hugs Kascha tightly, "Congratulations!"

"Yeah, good work," Donald's there, pulling both of them into his own hug, Kascha letting out a little eep and Amaryl crying, "Let go, your human arms are too strong."

Elle's right behind them, clapping but smiling, but not joining in on that mess, though to Sanzha she says, "He does have strong arms," she says with a warm smile.

Lady Sanzha chuckles but doesn't comment on it.

[Corwin]

"Those are elf arms backed by divine power!"

[Anastasia]

Donald laughs and spins them around and around, getting cries from both Kascha and Amaryl, before letting them go.

Kascha wobbles about from that and into Elle's arms, while Amaryl shakes it off.

"Another step forward," Lady Sanzha says, "That is not all. I have awakened ancient arts to gain further power," she announces. "I have taken the path of the madalani."

[Corwin]

"And this might be a nice addition to them," Seira tells Sanzha, drawing a scroll out of thin air and offering it to her.

The dungeon scroll, given IC!

[Anastasia]

Lady Sanzha takes it, "Ah, something of Air. It will do well Seira, thank you."

[Corwin]

"I think of you often and~" Seira tells Sanzha. "How's Io's book looking? I want to go over that first, since it affects our plans and options both."

[Anastasia]

Here Lady Sanzha shakes her head as Kascha recovers, "It has everything you need...and must be a hundred thousand pages if it's a word, and magic to condense it isn't working. The language and meaning is incredibly dense, and while I'm getting faster at it, it's not going to be quick."
