Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter
The world's a stage
In Sandpoint Nell & Honey meeting Cyrdak, talking generally
He's seeing Jasper a lot.
Ameiko doesn't like Cyrdak
I present my play to Cyrdak promising to cast Honeypot as Honeypot.
He agrees to read it. He likes it and will produce
We check for why Cyrdak isn't liked in Magnimar.
He was a dancer and was thrown out there after a performance.
We start preparing the play in Sandpoint.
After starting rehearsing
I get list of suggested changes from Cyrdak.
I told him that I will go away and write.
We decide to go to Magnimar to see why Cyrdak can't perform there.
I call Nathaniel and Velicia in runeforge to tell them we go there.
Honeypot transformed into a snow leopard and I rode Creampuff
He had trouble keeping honeypots speed. He's not to fat. It's winter, he's supposed to gain some weight for the winter. Perhaps it is a little too much...
We get there.
No trouble getting in.
I get home to Foxglove Townhouse and dress up as Sandeli
Then we went to the theater district, Triodea. It's Grand Stage, Stone Wall and Aerie
Director Dustin Versad is responsible for the three of them.
Honey talk to him while I sneak into his office. I look through the papers.
He is new as director and he is the money.
Honey tell him of what's happened in Sandpoint and sin and play some
Then she recite from my play and even though I only caught snippets of it I was amazed.
Versad really wanted to put it on the great stage.
Then Honey moved around and collected rumors
Heard of Kassiel Iylmrain. Eladrin dancer and diva. Promiscuous and easily made enemies. Goes both ways but mostly gay.
Next day Versad didn't want the play in his theater.
Honeypot found out from Versads mistress and prompter that said he met friends.
It turned out to be Kassiel
I took to the streets to find him and succeeded.
He was in a house of ill repute but good reputation.
Honey also got there.
Nathaniel and Velicia arrived
Velicia, who have read the play complains about accuracy. I correct her even more, but said the play is better if I write it this way.
We discuss what to do
Idea is to seduce Kassiel and get information out of him
I suggest Nathaniel seduce him and I keep watch. Nathan didn't agree. To bad. I would have liked to see that.
Honey disguise as male faun and enters.
I pretend to be gold digger and hang on his/her arm
We get in and Honey seduce Kassiel while I search his things
Not much.
Velicia found out that Kassiel had been involved with the brotherhood of seven and Ironbriar.
She also could tell from what I remembered of Versads papers that he was put there by previous associates of brotherhood of seven. He most likely just supplying money.
We think of what to do with Kassiel
Velicia:
We could: -Kill, -No, That's murder, -Intimidate to leave, -Might not work, -Trick to leave, -He would come back too soon, -Get a very good job far away, -He might be too lazy, -Cause him shame to make him leave, -Ok.
We take time
I return to Sandpoint and rehearsal with improved script
We continue working on play
I tell everyone not to tell Cyrdak but we are trying to get him back into Magnimars cultural circles.
Later Honeypot learn that Kassier is to dance in Magnimar.
We decide to shame him by Honeypot dance better that him
We all get there
We go to his show
Honeypot interrupt, but her fans support her.
I get some of the crowd to cheer "Dance off! Dance off!" by shouting and then sneaking around and shout from other place
When more want it Kassier tries to get away, but Velicia teleport ikapp him and teleport him onto stage.
Dancing start tentative as the two tried to size each other
Then Kassier madke beautiful moves only to be out danced by Honey
He tried to patch over with hard moves but failed embarrassingly
Honey is clearly winner
We returned to Sandpoint
Time for big premiere
Several tickets sold to unknown people
Turns out several important people from Magnimar there.
Just as I'm about to go on stage I turn to Cyrdak and say:
"I really hope it's going to be good. Otherwise we will look foolish when performing it in Magnimar."
He looked at me in disbelief and I nodded. He fainted but as there was a stagehand nearby to catch him I went on stage.
It was a strange feeling to stand on a stage to actually perform for the first time in my life.
I started the play: "Old forces of great strength, long forgotten, In fair Perrenland, where we lay our scene..."
I also finished: "Thus far, with rough and all-unable pen, Our bending author hath pursued the story, In little room confining mighty men, Mangling by starts the full course of their glory. Small time, but in that small most greatly lived These stars of Perrenland: Fortune made their swords; By which many magic items were achieved. They set out on paths encouraged by lords, To far off places, riding their steeds, Meeting both giants and dragons of old, Performing many great heroic deeds. Of which many good stories may be told: Which oft our stage hath shown; and, for their sake, In your fair minds let this acceptance take."
Silence
Applauds!
Continue to party
Turns out there were many celebrities at the premiere. Not only from Magnimar, but from far reaches.
There were famous adventurers and most impressively even two visitors from Greyhawk itself. They were from something called the circle of eight and was called Bigby and Tenser. Velicia was extremely impressed. I liked the old men. They were apparently some sort of high ups but still men of the people. They said that the liked the play.
Ameiko still pissed at Cyrdak
Velicia tired and asked her.
It turned out Cyrdak had been dating her evil brother Tsuto.
The barbarians looked and might not have completely understood everything but they said they liked it.
Before Xmas
Then it moved to Magnimar where I combined the reading of Chorus with starting to write on the second play.
It played for months
