The quest codex was inscribed by Cianne, for Em'et. It reads: There is a thing coming up called All Hallows Eve.. or Halloween on some shards.. for this holiday people tend to dress up in costumes..I will be needing a costume. Will you make one for me? It has to involve some sort of ears.. and I will wear it. Thanks! *c
Here is what ensued:
20:51:01: Em'et: Now, Wolfgar, lemme give you a bit of background on what's about to happen.
Em'et: Yesterdream, Cianne tasked me to create for her a costume, for an upcoming festival.
Em'et: But since this is for a mini for Deafen, she told me the costume had to be related to ears in some way.
>Em'et pulls from his pack a foam-fabric costume, entirely one-piece with a zipper in the back. It is shaped like an unshucked EAR of corn, with careful stitching to appear as though kernals of corn are just visible behind leafy protrustions.
20:54:06: You have been given the Corn Stalk!
(Cianne is now gold from head to toe with jade trim for "husks")
20:54:22: >Cianne groans...but a grin peeks through
20:54:27: Wolfgar: very......corny
20:54:28: >Cianne ughs
20:54:40: >Purple Lace smirks
20:55:57: >Cianne grudgingly steps into the costume
20:56:00: >Purple Lace points to Provenance
20:56:03: >Wolfgar grins
20:56:05: >Em'et chuckles.
20:56:11: >LadySilver giggles watching
20:56:25: Em'et: I present to you, for the first time ever, Cianne!
20:56:26: Em'et: As an ear of corn!
20:56:30: >LadySilver LAUGHS
20:56:38: >Purple Lace laughs and holds her sides at Cianne's outfit
20:56:40: >Em'et gestures wildly at Cianne in the costume.
20:56:41: >LadySilver applauds
20:56:53: >Cianne mumbles and spins..her arms out straight..she waddles slightly
20:56:55: >Purple Lace applauds also, very soundly
20:57:02: Wolfgar: a lucky man it will be that shucks that beauty aye?
20:57:08: >Em'et laughs.
20:57:12: >Cianne rolls her eyes
20:57:15: >LadySilver giggles to the paladin
20:57:22: Purple Lace: Wolfgar....it's too late now.
20:57:26: Wolfgar: we can add heat and watch her costume pop off
20:57:33: >Purple Lace laughs!
20:57:44: >Cianne tries to look grumpy, but bursts out laughing
20:59:27: Em'et: Now, to be fair, I also considered making an elephant costume. But this was way better.
20:59:33: Em'et: Elephants have HUGE ears!
21:00:05: >Cianne waddles around with her arms out straight
21:00:17: Em'et: Ah, what fun we have. Thanks for the mini, Cianne.
21:00:18: Purple Lace: That's great!
21:00:30: >Purple Lace tries not to fall over laughing
21:00:39: You Say: if I see someone with a stick of butter, I'm outta here!!!!
21:00:41: >Purple Lace laughs!
21:00:45: >Cianne laughs merrily
21:00:46: >Purple Lace falls over
21:00:48: >Em'et chuckles.
21:00:49: >LadySilver does the elephant stomp
21:00:54: >LadySilver dances
21:01:01: >LadySilver laughs
21:01:12: Purple Lace: Where's Zsa's ponies?
21:01:14: >Purple Lace looks around worriedly
21:01:22: Wolfgar: careful there Lady Silver...if you step on her, she will be.....wait for it
21:01:25: Wolfgar: creamed
21:01:28: >LadySilver points to wolfgar
21:01:32: >Purple Lace laughs
21:01:32: >Cianne laughs and laughs
21:01:33: Purple Lace: Cream of Cianne.
21:01:39: >LadySilver laughs!
21:01:44: LadySilver: he ate them
21:01:56: Wolfgar: corn meal?
21:02:05: LadySilver: no the ponies
21:02:15: Purple Lace: No grinding up the Cianne!
21:02:20: Wolfgar: that is a vicious rumour
21:02:23: LadySilver: i like rumors
21:02:32: >LadySilver giggles
21:02:45: Purple Lace: She needs to stay plump and delicious!
21:02:50: >Purple Lace nods nods nods
21:02:54: >Cianne chuckles
21:03:15: Purple Lace: my sides hurt
21:03:17: You Say: see now sparky would appreciate this, I may have to wear it until he dreams again
21:03:34: >Cianne giggles
21:03:37: Purple Lace: Aye! He needs to see this!
21:03:44: You Say: someone must draw a picture, this moment should not be wasted!
21:03:57: Em'et: Man, that color scheme really makes your halo almost seem yellow-green, almost gold, but not, but not quite jade either.
21:04:10: Purple Lace: it does...makes your halo almost yellow/green
21:04:16: You Say: a Gatemaster halo?!?
21:04:52: Em'et: I guess!
21:04:57: You Say: there's a novel idea!
21:04:58: Em'et: Or SoulKeeper!
21:05:03: Em'et: Good lord, that's an awesome title.
21:05:08: Em'et: SoulKeeper.
21:05:11: >Cianne waddles
21:05:19: >LadySilver giggles watchign cianne
21:05:34: Em'et: Pretty much anything combined with Keeper sounds awesome, DreamKeeper being the lamest of the three, but still awesome.
21:05:36: >Cianne tries to sit and her legs spring out stiffly in front of her as she tips slightly backwards
21:05:39: LadySilver: ohh dear be careful
21:05:56: Em'et: On the other hand, GateKeepers have only one option to have a focus name that isn't mocked. GateMaster is the only acceptable, not-mockable name there.
21:06:15: You Say: no kidding, this thing gets wet I'll never be able to move!
21:06:18: Em'et: GateSender, or especially GateSeer? That's silly.
21:06:22: >Cianne giggles
21:06:22: >LadySilver laughs
21:06:31: Em'et: Yeah, that'll soak up the water, Cianne.
21:06:34: Em'et: Carefull!
21:06:35: Em'et: Don't walk through EA Threshold.
21:06:53: >Wolfgar taps his chin thoughtfully
21:06:53: Em'et: Err... Basin Threshold, I suppose I should call it, for you lot.
21:12:24: >Cianne tries to stand and tumbles over, laying stiffly on the ground
21:12:40: You Say: crap
21:12:43: >Cianne tries to get up, rolling one way, then the other
21:13:04: LadySilver: that will take come getting use too
21:13:10: >LadySilver laughs
21:13:16: >Purple Lace blinks and starts laughing again
21:13:17: Wolfgar: corn roll
21:13:25: >Purple Lace laughs!
21:13:28: >LadySilver laughs to the paladin
21:13:47: >Cianne goes to her hands and knees, grasps the edge of the fountain then stands with much effort
21:13:49: >Cianne grumbles
21:13:56: Wolfgar: corn dog?
21:14:01: >Purple Lace falls over laughing
21:14:07: >Cianne laughs
An a-maize-ing cornucopia of one liners.. (Can't believe we missed those two)
