The Ball
Several weeks have passed since that fateful encounter in the lab and things in the city have progressed well.
Trade is expanding and the plan to create a linked portal between the flame and slime kingdoms has come to full fruition.
Late one night you got an invitation to some high class gala thrown by Princess Bubblegum, if you want wizard city to be taken seriously you kind of have an obligation to attend these things.
You arrive as the sun starts to set behind the spires of the castle, your portal spits you out just before the drawbridge, you spit several other princesses in attendance along with their guests.
Out front you spot Fiona sitting in an unmarked car that looks suspiciously like Cake, presumably running security.
You follow the trickling crowd of guests in through the main gates and then through the doors of the grand hall.
To the left is a snack bar stocked with a variety of candy themed finger foods, you even spot a chocolate fountain at the far end of the snack bar along with L.S.P.
Princess Bubblegum has yet to make an appearance it seems and several princesses start talking amongst themselves like Frozen yogurt Princess and Breakfast Princess or dancing like Flame Princess.
Theirs much to do and any of it could help to boost your standing among the council and earn you a bit of clout.
