The Ireem Chronicles

Hurray! One day later than planned we finally got our new supplies. The Ireem Chronicles is running at full pace again. The past week we only placed the important articles. Now, however, we have space again for some other articles too:

Given the chance to report about the Sultana’s Audience last Saturday, I hurried excited into Palace, stumbling into the room where Second Minister Kadar Jayaram finally managed calming down the agitated crowd.

Knight Jordina McGinnis was the first one allowed to speak to our beloved Sultana. Introduced now officially as new Knights Leader until elections are held, the Sultana was very pleased with this information and First Knight Jordi promised to perform her task with care.

Second Minister Kadar introduced the new Prey Leader SugarKane Twine, who wished to present the new rules for slaves to her Majesty. Handing it out to Palace Eunuch Zhexiao Zhangsun, he and our Highness Zanlu Heron read the scroll with interest. Getting consent on having a special meeting with the Prey Council soon, Sugar bowed honored and stepped back.

Bedouin Leader Sir Jordan (MasterJ Swashbuckler) was introduced to speak next, followed by a massive bunch of Bedu, mostly female of course. Sir Kadar and Lady Mirna Muggins tried to stop him, but he totally ignored them both. While Kadar and Mirna still were busy with debating, if all Bedu are allowed to stay, Sir Jordan started with his requests after a lot of sweettalking, pointing out, how much he admires our Highness‘ beauty. She obviously was really excited to see him. Sir Jordan first complained about Lady Mirna groping him in public. He also mentioned the wall used to place bounties for scoundrels is much too small, as he intends to add new ones like Second Minister Kadar, Knight Seraf Clip or Citizen Copper Convair, all in desperate need to learn some manners. Handing her a present, not forgetting to mention it‘s best not to open it here, he and his bunch of Bedu left bowing.

Next one was Sir Mikk Graves, a Prince coming from the far North, he introduced himself to our beloved Sultana, stating how much he admires her, and I quote: "my eyes are on you not on the other ladies here !" A disappointed mumur was rising up under the female listeners and Second Minister Kader raised an eyebrow. He handed her some gifts and the Sultana pointed out her hope to see him more often.

Lady KCEE Congrejo , Assistant healer of Ireem presented a report on the conditions in the Dungeon, requesting funds to be given for improvements to the Jail. Upon inspection she found some very serious deficiancies like Vermin Running Loose, Rat and Mouse Droppings, Mouldy Straw, Rusty Chains, Unoperable Torture Devices, Weak Cell Bars, Crumbling Motar Between Bricks, Skeletons Missing Bones and Wood Rot on the Rack. The Sultana, shocked about the report, ordered Sir Kadar to make notes, promising her consideration on this matter.

Citizen Daphne Mortenwold requested to be recognized as a Lady of the court and recieved a warm welcome at Palace.

Slaver Mark Biondi came to seek her Highness‘ blessing for his trade travel by ship. The Sultana smiled and wished him safe paths on this venture.

The Audience was finished at this point, as slaver Am Demina approached. Stirring up the knights he asked for permission to join the "party" and got kicked out quickly. Everyone was leaving Palace, the Sultana adjourned to her private rooms to work on the requests given to her.
Sadly we are not able to show all the sketches made during the happening, as we were still waiting for new supplies of ink and blank parchment. But I am strongly impressed by the beautiful appearance of our beloved Majesty. And watch out for Sir Jordan’s newest wig, it definitely is impressive !
