Quest 263

[primrosella]

HER MAJESTY QUEEN ROSELLA
Daughter of Graham and Valanice
~

Death came while she slept
To serenely dispatch her;
He'd tried while she waked
But he never could catch her.

[OOC: Funnily enough, ridiculous epitaphs are a part of King's Quest canon; graveyards are rare in Daventry (mostly because people tend to turn into zombies upon being buried in them, erk), but they do exist, and the stuff on the headstones is almost always humorous, ironic, or tongue-in-cheek in some way. Go figure. Anyway, thanks to the zombie thing, I doubt they'd actually bury Rosella, but I bet she'd get a memorial similar to this.]

You're going along?

I am--armed, of course. But something has to be done about this. And I'm tired of waiting in hiding for something to happen or to make itself clear or for all of this to resolve itself while we watch. So instead of hiding, I'm going to try and set things to rights.

...I understand that feeling. It's far better to do something than sit around and worry.

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

I'll send you word of what happens, if anything happens, if that would ease your worry at all.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I'd appreciate that very much. Are you taking Riff with you?

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

I haven't yet decided. I should like to have him with me, but I should also like him to look after Merry and guard the opera house.

I suppose it's for him to decide, in some part. Or, rather, he won't hear of my insisting the other way.

She's always welcome here, if it comes to that. Goodness knows I'd be glad for the company.

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

I'll send her to you, then, if it does come to that. I know she'll be safe there, and I wouldn't mind sending you some company.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

And you'll let me know once...

...I'll hear from you. Once it's over.

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course you will.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

All right. Then I'll look forward to that.
