that... was surprisingly fun:

You come out of hiding.
You pull the string of your confetti popper!
The confetti popper explodes with a bang, causing colorful confetti to spray forth and cover an infested river scavenger from head to toe!

Any timing of my "bugfix" command with someone attacking the red-nosed caribou was purely coincidental, however, I love the reaction. :-)

An old man who lies fast asleep by the stage suddenly awakes again, this time with a yell of, "MORE WINE!" The finely dressed waiter hears the call but this time chooses to ignore it. Again the old man awakes and yells, "MORE MINE!". The waiter also ignores this. And again the old man yells, "BOAR VINE!" By this time everyone is ignoring him and his wife comes up and drags him away via his loose coat shoulders.

(Hakon's eyes sharpen at the sound of the word "boar," but he loses interest almost immediately after seeing no such creature in the immediate area.)

Chione says, "There was a castle, and in it, there was a great feast and a prince. And a man came and bowed low before the prince, and an eye of the man's was missing. the eye-hole was bleeding."

Zeldryn nods slowly.

Balein nods.

Chione says, "The prince inquired of him, 'What has happened to you?' and the man replied, 'Prince, I am a thief and this night, there was no moon. I went to rob the riln-changer's shop, and I climbed through the window. But because it was dark, I went into the weaver's shop, and ran into the loom. My eye was plucked out.'."

Chione says, "The thief continued, looking up with his remaining eye, 'Prince, I ask for revenge upon the weaver.'."

Zeldryn nods slowly.

Balein nods slowly.

Chione slowly says, "The Prince sent for the weaver and he came, and the Prince said he must lose an eye."

(Zeldryn looks a bit confused, at that, but nods further, listening closely.)

Balein eyes Chione speculatively.

Chione says, "The Weaver laid down in front of the prince and cried, "Prince, what you say is right. But I need both eyes so I can see either side of the loom when I weave. But I have a neighbour- a shoeman- who also has two eyes, and he does not need both of them.'."

Chione says, "So the prince nodded and sent for the cobbler instead, and the cobbler came. And one of his eyes was removed to avenge the Thief."

Chione slowly says, "And so he was avenged."

(Chione goes back to patting her horse as she finishes the strange tale.)

Zeldryn slowly asks, "I.. Don't believe I understand. If the man plainly admitted himself a thief, then why, by all of the names of all of the immortals, was he given vengeance for his own blunder?"

Chione simply says, "Because Life is unfair, and sometimes it is those that do not deserve it that get things undeserved."
Zeldryn rubs his chin thoughtfully.

Balein say, "Ah, yes. Life is most certainly unfair."

Chione rubs her chin thoughtfully.

Speaking to Chione, Zeldryn slowly says, "Interesting words from an interesting lady. That's certainly food for thought."

Chione says, "But I think the story has many meanings even if it is an unpleasant one."

Balein say, "But, that's the element of the game. Knowing it is unfair."

Chione nods to Balein.

Balein ask, "So.. about the feast. What happened to it?"

Chione asks, "The story asks many questions. Why did the Prince listen to the thief? Why did the Weaver seek his neighbour to be hurt? Why did the cobbler not defend himself?"

Speaking to Balein, Chione says, "I am guessing it continued, and that it was not a good one for the cobbler."

Speaking to Chione, Balein say, "Oh, that's simple. The Cobbler had a sole."

(Chione blinks at Balein, before slowly nodding.)

Zeldryn stares at Balein.

Speaking to Balein, Zeldryn asks, "Did.. Did you really?"

(Balein holds his compsure, remaining silent.)

Zeldryn politely says, "A moment."

Chione says, "It is those that do not speak for themselves that are sometimes hurt."

Chione nods.

(Chione seems to have missed the pun, but nods thoughtfully.)

(Zeldryn removes his rucksack, puts his head inside of it, and proceeds to scream a lightly muted scream for about five seconds before putting the bag back on his back without a second word on the matter.)

Zeldryn politely says, "Alright. Fine now."

(Chione glances to Zeldryn with a raised eyebrow.)

Chione concernedly asks, "You are okay?"

(Zeldryn nods easily, looking relaxed.)

Zeldryn plainly says, "That pun was just a bit too much for me, that's all."

Chione rubs her chin thoughtfully.

Balein chuckle at Zeldryn.

Chione confusedly asks, "There was a pun?"

Zeldryn groans.

Zeldryn slowly says, "The.. The cobbler. He.. He had a.. Oh, nevermind."

(Chione nods slowly.)

(Chione reaches over and pats Zeldryn gently on the shoulder.)

Zeldryn sighs dramatically.
