[QUOTE="Bront, post: 3381528, member: 19696"] Your payment arives late in the morning, in full. Pician notes to you that he'll settle up any further monies after the corination. The next day is the funeral, which is a stately affair, and has many finely dressed nobles and other mourners in attendance. It is a drawn out affair, very official, and it seems for the most part, the attendies are indeed in mourning, though it's obvious a few are there for show as well. There is a procession though the streets of Earling, and it seems most of the city has stoped to pay its respects to the departed Barron. The procession ends at the family Crypt, where [s]his undead family members greet him warmly[/s] he is finaly laid to rest. [sblock=Lasair]Durring some of the mulling around before the funeral, someone slips Lasair a note. She's not sure who, but she thinks she sees a vaguely familiar figure off in the distance. The note reads: [color=sandybrown]Thank you for saving Niobe. I owe you a great debt of honor. I hope we meet again some day. Carsis[/color][/sblock] There are a few days after the funeral spent preparing for the corination, where the mannor is in near Chaos. Niobe seems quite visable in her goings about, not only from her radiant beauty, but perhaps by consious chose of her own. She and Lasair occasionaly talk as well, when she's not busy working with the staff on the occasion (and occasionaly while she is). The Corination is indeed a grand spectical, with Pician dressed in regal robes, and Niobe sparkling with beauty in a dress fit for a queen. They each swear an oath before accepting their crowns, and an announcer shouts to all in attendance [COLOR=Red]"Please welcome, for the first time, Barron Pician and Barroness Niobe!"[/COLOR] Those in attendance rise to their feet, and a thunderous applause rocks the room. Afterwards, there is much dinning and celebration. The entire town is aglow in celebration. Music and festivities last long into the night, and you expect some may even continue into the morrow. The next day, Barron Pician and Niobe are up in the morning to see you off. They have arranged a carriage back to Orussis if you wish, though this time, the Carriage intends to stop for the night a few times. He also hands each of you your final payment, with a hearty handshake. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]"Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. You have done a good service to the people of Earling, but most importantly, my darling Niobe is safe. I wish you luck on your travels."[/COLOR] Niobe smiles and curties to you all, [COLOR=Pink]"Thank you again as well. If you ever return to Earling, Pician and I would be honored for you to stop by. Perhaps you can share stories of your travels, as I doubt we'll do much of that in the near future ourselves."[/COLOR] The ride back is smooth and quite comfortable, much more so than the ride to Earling. Rooms and warm meals await you morning and night, and while the trip is not as expediant, you still make fine time and require little exertion on your own part. -------------------------------- And so ends Niobe's Dilemma. You can use this thread to finish up anything else you may wish to do in Earling or afterwards. If there are any questions, or things you wish to tie up, feel free, we can retcon them if need be. I can also potentialy answer questions OOC about the adventure. I'd also like some feedback. It's been fun playing with you all, and my only regret is that we lost most of the origionals for some time, but Ogrin and Razh helped pick up the slack and were a nice addition as well. Awards: The 40,000 gold initialy offered, of course (already split, so no big deal) 1,000 gold per person who stayed (Troi, Lasair, Razh, and Ogrin) XP already awarded Additional XP (time+other) Lasair - 200 Razh - 300 Ogrin - 300 Troi - 250 [/QUOTE]
