kicks a small rock, watching it skitter across the dusty floor. "Thought we'd... find something by now." sighs
She has to be around here somewhere, Argent
glances over at DesertRoseGamer, then scans the area with a raised eyebrow. "According to your research...this is where she was last seen.
crouches down to examine a symbol etched into the stone wall. "This could be a clue. Maybe a password?" looks at DesertRoseGamer expectantly.
A few minutes later we hear cheering from far away, I start running towards the noise and Argent comes along
quickens his pace and follows DesertRoseGamer. "Looks like trouble... or maybe our ticket out of this dump!" grins
reaches DesertRoseGamer and leans in closer, whispering. "Got any tricks up your sleeve for this unexpected turn of events?" winks
Don't know, don't care, let's go see what's going on!
throws a playful punch at DesertRoseGamer's shoulder. "That's the spirit!" laughs
turns a corner and sees a group of people celebrating around a makeshift stage. "Whoa, looks like a party! And who invited all these beauties?" whistles appreciatively
Um... holy shit, is that...?
squints, trying to see who's on the stage. "Well, well, well... If it isn't... gasps The Princess herself! What's she doing here?"
I clap my hands in excitement OH MY GOD SHE'S REAL!!!
<DesertRoseGamer and Argent rush towards the stage, hoping to catch a glimpse of Princess Zelda and join in the celebration.>
Woo hoo, my kingdom come!
waves enthusiastically in the air, grinning widely. "Hey there, Princess! Long time no see!" chuckles
What's the occasion? Is there gonna be free stuff? Should we give a gift, Argent?
leans in closer to DesertRoseGamer and whispers. "Always good to bring a gift when visiting royalty. Let me see what I have in my bag." rummages through his backpack and pulls out a beautifully wrapped package. "How about this? It's a handmade potion bottle. Should fetch a pretty penny at the market." smirks
approaches the stage and addresses the princess with a dramatic bow. "Your Highness, it's an honor to see you again!
Hi Princess Zelda, long time no see!
extends the gift to Princess Zelda with a flourish. "A humble offering for your majesty. A potion bottle, crafted with love and care, fit for royalty." winks Princess Zelda: accepts the gift gracefully, examining it with interest. "Thank you, kind stranger. Such craftsmanship, truly admirable." smiles
You're welcome, princess! We heard you were here but we didn't expect such a crowd. Is something going on?
leans in closer to DesertRoseGamer, speaking in hushed tones. "Keep your ears open for any gossip, my friend. This could be our ticket to the treasure we've been seeking! And who knows? Maybe we'll uncover some dark secrets along the way." winks
I also lean in close to Argent Of course! Why shouldn't we learn more?
grins mischievously "Alright, let's mingle and do some snooping around. Keep an eye out for anyone acting shady or whispering about something they shouldn't. Remember, information is power, my friend." takes a sip of alcohol from a flask and heads towards the crowd
Alrighty, Argent! Let's get this party started! Who's the lucky guy Princess Zelda is talking to? Can we get between them?
moves quickly towards the pair, trying to eavesdrop on their conversation "Sorry to interrupt, Your Highness, but may I borrow a moment of your time?" grins charmingly Princess Zelda: gives a curious glance to Argent, then back to DesertRoseGamer "Of course, kind stranger. What can I do for you?"
watching Argent with a grin "Just asking how you knew we were coming. Was it the scent of dirt and 'accidental' stumbling?"
playfully rolls his eyes "Oh, come on now, Princess! Can't blame a fellow for trying to find out who invited all these lovely ladies to this shindig. And speaking of lovely ladies, who might this lucky guy be?" points at the man beside Princess Zelda Princess Zelda: laughs softly "Ah, this lucky guy happens to be none other than Prince Roderick from across the kingdom! Talk about a royal coincidence, huh?"
Grins and nods He's definitely the most handsome fella here. Well I should be off... Have fun, you two.
raises an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in his eyes "Hold on a minute, Princess! You can't just drop a juicy piece of gossip like that and expect us to leave without digging deeper. Prince Roderick, you say? Now that's a name we need to remember. Let's see if we can find out what our charming prince is hiding." winks at DesertRoseGamer and starts to scan the crowd for any signs of Prince Roderick Princess Zelda: leans in closer, whispering "Be careful, kind strangers. Prince Roderick has a reputation for being quite cunning.
I clap my hands excitedly Prince Roderick?! Are you kidding? He's got gotta be up to something. We need to find him! Let's split up and search high and low! If any lady needs rescuing, I'm her hero!
starts searching through the crowd, bumping into people and apologizing profusely "Sorry, sorry! Excuse me, excuse me! I'm looking for Prince Roderick, have you seen him around?" nods and smiles at each person he asks Princess Zelda: watching Argent mingle with the crowd, she looks intrigued "That's quite a determined fellow you have there. I hope he finds what he's looking for." smirks
