This is a work in progress.

All the world's a stage

The Greedy Golem.

Velicia researching Xin Shalast

We decide to go high up in the mountains during summer when only very cold that high up.

Barbarians come and claim stuff from dragons treasure. They pay handsomely in gold and wolf furs.

---

I met Honeypot at the last performance of a play at the Sandpoint Theater. Afterwards we went to Cracktooth’s Tavern and met Cyrdak Drokkus. We started talking. I asked innocently if he had a new play. As he said no, I suggested him to read my play.

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.

Nathaniel asked Pug of Pug's Contraptions to make more toys for his siblings. He asked for a small mechanical white dragon ant dolls of us for his little brother to follow the music box he got his little sister the last time.

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

Pamphlet "Of Dragons Defeated."

Printed - give copy to Velicia and Chask Haladan in the Curious Goblin.

Then it moved to Magnimar where I combined the reading of Chorus with starting to write on the second play.

It played for months
