Welcome to the Faerie Feast!
After your have gained your wings, you are met by a feast on the second floor with all that the forest can offer you. Tables and chairs are set up everywhere along the walkway between the houses, allowing the new visitors to meet and greet - or try to hide in the corners and eat berries all by themselves.

Try your new wings to be the first to grab those delicious crumbs of walnut bread? Or say hi to your party lights, courtesy of some excited glow worms and flies that just want to be your best friends.

Explore how your new gem works, try put your leaf clothes or decide to head further into the tree, seeing just what kind of place your have stumbled into. Maybe you will even get a glimpse of those hairy legs on the fourth floor?

"Oh yeah? Are they actual, y'know..." Kyle mimed the hopping of a frog. "Sounds like a blast, though. Are you an island nation?" Since she'd mentioned those ports and all...

"I don't think there's any country that's completely free of criminals -- we've got a bit of a bandit problem in some regions ourselves. But they're nothing to worry about as long as you've got a good head on your shoulders. Can't let a few bad apples ruin the barrel, y'know?"

"Oh! They're not frogs, of course not-- they're just the residents of the Mushroom Kingdom." Who happened to be mushroom people, but that didn't seem too important to mention. They were just ordinary people, after all! "Oh, no-- we're just on the shore of the ocean."

She nods with a small smile, but it's quickly replaced by a soft sigh. "I wish we had bandits instead of the usual grand kidnappings and takeovers, they can be so tiring! But I shouldn't complain. I love what I do, even if I get into trouble from time to time."

"Oh, well. The reason I was asking is that we've got a population of Beavers. And they really are beavers -- the fuzzy kind, with the big front teeth. They're great with carpentry." What a mysterious place Falena was...

He looked a little surprised. "You've got kidnappings and takeovers? Wow, that sounds like an awful lot to worry about. But you must be pretty tough, if you've been through all that."

[ ooc; keyboard died, sorry I've been so slow getting back to this thread! ]

"Oh! They sound adorable... We have all kinds of people who live in the Mushroom Kingdom. I don't think any of them specialize in carpentry, though! But we do have penguins who specialize in murder mysteries!"

Penguin murder mysteries, you heard that right.

"Oh, it's just something that comes with the job. It's not really a big deal... even if it can be particularly stressful sometimes! I just wish there was a way to keep my people safe all the time, instead of just getting into trouble so much. Maybe I should send Bowser away on a vacation...?"
ladiesknight: (Kyle: you didn't say the magic word)

no worries!

"Pen-guins? Never heard of those." Maybe they were part of some kind of constabulary? Either way, investigating murders couldn't have been very pleasant work.

"Well, it's impossible to keep you people shielded from all harm. I think the best you can really hope for is to leave them in a place where even if you're gone, they'll be able to fend for themselves for a little while. But what do I know? I'm just your run-of-the-mill knight. So, who's this Bowser character?"
