Event Name: Zoluren Tour of Homes
Event Instance: Prime
Real Date: 2024-01-28
Game Date of Event: 448-01-29
Point of View: Kethrai
You are Heart Tender Kethrai, Empath Emeritus of Zoluren, a Prydaen Empath.

You have an oval face, cat-slitted moss-green eyes and a whiskered nose. Your bright orange-streaked red-gold mane is shoulder length and curly, and is worn in an elegant upswept arrangement threaded with an iridescent strand of spun rainbow woven with swirling charoite prisms. You have sandy fur with brown points, a fluffy tail and a lissome build.
You are short for a Prydaen.
You are a moth-stalker.
Your facial fur is decorated with a bounty of tiny melir blooms. Clustered around your left eye, the white glaes flowers glisten with delicate rosy pink hues. Tiny petals trail downwards, whirling along your jaw as though scattered by an errant breeze.
Your abdomen has a tattoo of a stunning vela'tohr flower bleeding through a variety of jewel-toned hues.
You are in good shape.

You are wearing a wedding torque of entwined blue and Elven gold wreathing a dawnbreak diamond, an indigo armure capelet trimmed in pristine white ermine fur, a tailored petalette shirt adorned with haralun buttons, a well-fitted pair of indigo aniline leather pants and some thick hiking boots with soft desumos fur lining.


[Willow Walk, Fountain]

Randomly shaped leaves of verdigrised copper form a tall fountain in the middle of a large pool filled with water lilies, which is surrounded by a low garden of flowers and herbs that shifts in color with the seasons. Benches shaped of polished copperwood are scattered about, inviting the weary passerby to sit and be soothed by the music of the water trickling its random way down from one copper leaf to another into the surrounding pond.You also see a pink-checked cotton cloth, a large stone turtle with a hollow in its shell and a massive willow tree.

You try hard not to grin.

Centered in the path of tiny white quartz pebbles, an ancient sugar maple has been lifesculpted to suggest the figure of a dark unicorn emerging from its trunk.

In one corner lies an oversized silverwood box bed, and near the bed sits a gilded oak heartwood table with a bouquet of Healing Heart orchids arranged in a glazed pottery crock and a group of well-worn songbooks on it. A gorgeous riverstone fireplace burns along the far wall with a deckle-edged sheet of creamy white drawing paper hanging above it. The room holds a faint scent of wild orchids.

The paper is painted with: Red and brown triangles compose the background of the painting, their edges only barely overlapping. White lines blurred pink by the undried colors beneath smudge through the painting from left to right, creating a hazy rippling effect. Here and there, the lines drift off-course and intersect with each other. Small blue dots streak downwards from the top, stopping roughly halfway down the page. In the center of the painting is a collection of concentric dark green semi-circles, with black swishes coming off the sides. Beneath this odd jumble of shapes is a row of brighter green triangles, each displaced at an angle from the one next to it, the fine brush lines standing out from the rest of the painting. Below *them* is a series of orange ovals in the shape of some scarce-imaginable nightmare--or possibly a sleeping lizard. In the bottom right corner, in dark purple, the letters K-O-R-N-V-A appear to dance happily after a drunken night out, half of them collapsing on each other.

Elore says, "I mean.. not here."
