Invitations and Offerings

The meal had been delicious and delightful. A family cookout catered by scantly clad demi-humans dressed in sheer dresses and tunics with plenty of music and dancing to add to the atmosphere of joy. Jerry had been surprised how casually Abraham and his clan were in being physical with their slaves, not so much the casual cruelty which Jerry had anticipated, but the nonchalant way the humans would fondle those they kept magically bound. Jerry watched on multiple occasions as one of the Valwaaroos would stroke, pet, and casually caress the **** they were directing and quite often ended the interaction with a kiss, an ass slapping, or both.

The Brigadier and his family had asked Jerry and Titania for their story, and the one the pair told was mostly true. They had said that Titania was in truth a refugee, that she had been procured for the demon Khan's pleasure companies but escaped with the help from members of The Opposition who packed her in a barrel and sent her over Paradise Falls into the realms of men. She has spent five years wandering the orcwoods and wyld zones of The Commonwealth of Kingdoms honing her ranger skills before the elf met Jerry, the sole survivor of a dragon attack on his family's farm. Jerry had been gathering the gems and denoding the spawn points left in the dragon's wake when they met. Titania agreed to help Jerry clear his family's land of kaos contamination and Jerry agreed to escort Titania to Stoneford. The rest was already some of the juiciest gossip the family had had in ages.

After eating their fill, the family and guests dispersed to their business and leisure. Abraham assigned Jerry and his party a maid and footman to escort them to their apartments and to attend to their every need. Fairfox14 and Rexbuddy9 both carried themselves with a stiff professionalism dressed in their household livery that Jerry could not help but think looked ridiculous with their midriffs exposed to show off their belly runes.

"My master wishes for you to feel the full warmth of his hospitality." said Rexbuddy9. "You should feel free to advantage yourself of the full breadth and scope of Verdahead's amenities."

"Should there be anything which you need or want, we have both been instructed to serve you as if we belonged to you and to procure for you anything which you might desire or require." said Fairfox14. The maid drew Jerry's attention towards a table next to an elaborate booth and the menu of sweet girls and pretty boys available to order.

There was a DING noise which drew everyone's attention to another table where a courier squirrel dropped a letter on top of a growing pile of correspondence before retreating through the tube network from wence it crawled. "Its like these people have never heard of scrying." Commented Zoe as she sorted through the mail.

Sabine and Czarla were inviting Jerry to join their hunt tomorrow. They hoped that Jerry might prove the champion of the day by taming the most impressive creature from among the wild monsters roaming the wyld zones. "You can imagine what kind of monsters an estate like this has stocked in its game wards." said Chloe.
"Can you take us?" asked Zoe. "We've never been on a real game hunt like this, all the rich folks showing off their fancy custom armor. It will be fun."

The Brigadier wanted to give Jerry a tour of his eugenics laboratory and show off some of the cutting edge techniques for artisanal monster genesis. "That sounds so cool." Said Sasha. "You read about how they can make mature form monsters from just mana-composites and a 2D6 template."

The dowager lady Regina Fitzrollooi was requesting the pleasure of Jerry's companionship as her escort to the market town of Bourbaville for some shopping. "Cannot fault the rich widow for her lack of taste." said Sasha. "Though she is lacking in the subtly department."

"Not as badly as some people." said Chloe showing Sasha the letter from Simeon Valwaaroo in which he invites Jerry to discuss matters matrimonial and to see if the two of them can come to an agreement on a possible betrothal or concubinage for one of the man's many daughters.
"The man is **** to get his girls settled." Sasha said with a shrug. "Pretty normal stuff."
"In the books and gossip sheets, maybe. But seeing it in real life is wild." said Zoe.

Ashur was asking for Jerry and Lady Titania would join him in the training yards for some sparring practice and to discuss the matter of the missing commando squad. "Do you think that they can do anything?" asked Titania. Jerry shrugged.

Isaac wanted to let Jerry know that Jacob and Shebari would be arriving later that evening with the intention of staying the night and joining the hunt, the three of them planned to go on a prowl the demis' dorms after the slaves' curfew and do some surprise inspections.

Then there was the very cryptic message from The Reverend Zohar saying that she must speak with Jerry privately on a matter of divine import.

Not all the letters were for Jerry. Sara and Mary Valwaaroo invited Titania to join them for a spa day complete with slime bath and a swim in a pixie pond. The letter had said that Titania could "bring the freeblade if you want." So whether Jerry would or should go seem ambiguous.

Sasha received a letter from Zebulon. "He wants to know if I would enjoy conducting the interview on a ride through the estate and if I would like to accompany him to town." Sasha blushed.

"That's not all, is there?" Said Titania.

"No, but the rest is private." Said Sasha. Chloe and Zoe to break out into giggles.

"Seems like a lot of invitations." said Jerry.
"Which ones are you going to accept?" Asked Titania.
"Good question." said Jerry
