WaitingGame subjectively from Xora's point of view. What I have written here is her views, which she wouldn't share with anyone, but a subjective description is so much more fun to read! Please don't take advantage of the hints I dropped here, only use this as a funny little tale and an external memory. If you want to make additions, please do so at the bottom
After the success at the ceremony, we withdrew to NemalzhiManor. Mother was furious about Lolth's refusal to answer, and it took some serious back rubbing to get her back on track. Overall, the family seems distraught. Why? The goddess has shown us how happy she is, let us all be happy!
Zhe'raen also took some convincing, but I think he is coming around. He's got to see that he's the chose one! He is so handsome! I wonder if he is in love with that girl of his? She seems really boring!
I'm having a lot of fun with Velve and the sisters, he is so cute when he is angry!
Mother wants me to accompany her to LoveTown and to pick her up again after three days - wow! Matron is really coming around! Anyway, things are all going my way here, so I think it's time for some fresh air...
Three days later
Not only did I remember to pick her up, we are both in very good moods! She's petitioning the Council of Eight to increase the rank of our house. Well, that is sort of lame - I was hoping for something more drastic. But it is kind of exiting that we can't do anything at all about it but wait in terror. And we have to make the manor all shiny! Seems Zhaunil finally got some task to distract her from that boring orc, too!
I brought along some friends from school and they formed a nice procession around Zhe'raen. He did not appreciate it at all, and even questioned their usefulness. I wonder if he's deliberately trying to make me mad? I should have struck him then, but he's just so handsome! Some of the stupid girls quit just before the big reception - losers! Scared girls never get it on with big heroes!
The Big Day
What a procession! The matrons and armies of the first eight houses! And our own forces arrayed in sort of a panic. Even Nirl looked good, the little darling! And we got raised to house 50! What were we before? 56? 57? Anyway, everyone is very exited about it. Mother fainted for a spell, but I could keep her standing. Wow, that was a rush - her mind is gorgeous! If only some people weren't so shy, this house could be a blast!
Mom decided to hold a victory party and asked me to make her a dress! I was so nervous that I fussed about it way too long, so she decided to go stark naked instead. Well, what could I do - I went naked too! The party started out a little slow, but I used some tricks of the trade, and soon we had a regular orgy! Mother was playing around with some of Zhaunil's pets, and Zhe'raen was satisfying his fans at an alarming rate. Great Lady - is that man a pro, or what? I sent the sisters to fool around with Velve - he looked like he needed it.
In the crowd, I sensed the presence of Her, just like in the temple and in my dreams. What a rush! She seemed pleased, and I could almost sense her thorax breathing. She was mingling with the crowd, and soon not only I saw her. Such magnificence! I am sure She has selected us as Her agents of chaos in this decadent city!
It appears like Ahriman has been a bad boy and summoned a devil of some kind. But what a marvelous creature she is! Eyes like embers and ruin in every move! These silly wards seemed to impede her, so I removed them! Cowardly things, anyway! But where is she now? I must seek her out!
