| Black Pearl | The Chateau of Resplendent Delights is one of the best-known temples to decadence and pleasure in Great Forks. From excellent food and drink, to fine musicians and performers in the public areas, to hard drugs in an opium den, to a luxurious spa, as well as a brothel with a variety of skilled artisans that patrons and clientele can choose from. All under the watchful eye of Black Pearl, the nom de Rivers of Cynis Salara.
At the moment, the Water-Chosen is in her office awaiting the Guild representative to discuss business, both economic and otherwise. There is a fountain giving a light babbling trickle, and the mingled scents of fruits and liquors and more tantalizing scents just below... |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror Would arrive, looking over the place known as a temple for vice, decadence, and pleasure.
She would smile as she looks over the area, Carefully examining all with a trained eye as she focuses on them all. She would make her way to the office, with a warm expression upon her face, and knock in a pleasant rhythm |
| Black Pearl | There is an attendant at the door, who, on confirming Oracle's identity, bows t her and then opens the door. "Black Pearl? This is Oracle of the Frozen Mirror. Oracle? This is Black Pearl. Black Pearl? Guildswoman Oracle of the Frozen Mirror."
The woman behind the desk stands up, and there is the senastion of freshness, a pleasant clear mist in the air. She stands up with with sinuous grace, and the silks flow around her like the Element she is attuned to, clinging to her body. "Welcome, Oracle. Please come in and sit down. I am very glad to meet you and hope that we can come to a nice accomodation. Please, will you come in and make yourself comfortable?" |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror smiles over at Black Pearl, gives a polite bow as was custom, and moves into the room. Allowing the warm fuzzy to wash over her as she takes a seat without flourish.
"Thank you for the warm greeting, I appreciate it Black Pearl." She would say giving a pleasant tone to her words, no emotion could be read on her face however. As she looks into the eyes of Black Pearl, she focuses on the intent behind her words, the intent behind what she is saying to better understand the person she is dealing with |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror nods, as she looks her over. Focusing intently for just a moment, before her gaze relaxes. "I believe we're going to get on like a port on fire Black Pearl. So before getting to anything, pleasurable shall we say, perhaps we should talk business?" |
| Black Pearl | Black Pearl laughs delightedly. "Of course, of course! As I am sure you know, I am always looking for good wines and liquors, as well as drugs. And if you have any particularly adept slaves, either beauty or with skill, well, I am always looking for exptional talent, even if not to purchase in bulk. What of you? Are you looking for cash? Notes? Some of our own drug production and other plantation products?" |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror laughs, equally as pleased. "I would positively love to receive cash, but I would preferentially prefer to receive introductions within the city. I would appreciate investing in your businesses, in exchange for some lovely experiences and your recommendation on those I should introduce myself to in the city."
"I would also like to perhaps arrange a closer relationship with your good self. The Guild is always looking for people that are... reliable in the face of adversity." |
| Black Pearl | "Well, I can certainly make some introductions. I am a known figure, and have clientele that reaches to the hights of the temple hills," Black Pearl says. "As for adversity?" There is a bright smile. "I seek to distract people from adversity, or give them somthing other than adversity to enjoy. Besides, in adversity, there is opportunity to be seized, is there not?" |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror "I would certainly appreciate that."
"I completely agree, I thought you might feel the same way, but one has to make sure, no? Regardless, Is there anything that You desire, Black Pearl, that I might help you achieve?" |
| Black Pearl | Black Pearl thinks a moment. "That you can help me achieve...well, I am not sure, since I don't know /you/ well enough. Yet. I would, of course, like to hear rumors and information that the Guild collects. Beyond that?" Black Pearl grins easily. "FOr the moment, my desires are personal rather than professional." |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror would take a moment, listening carefully. "I would be able to see what I can arrange. I hope to create a lasting sense of security in this city, for those I consider close to me." |
| Black Pearl | "Of course," Black Pearl says. "I do as well, perhaps using different methods to gain wealth, power, and influence. But I have found that giving people what they want is the best way to draw them closer. And...is there anyone close to you here? Outside the Guild?" |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror would say, "I completely agree. But as to my being close to other people here, Not particularly, aside from any representatives of my family in particular I'm rather... lonesome out here, I would very much appreciate a friendly face?" |
| Black Pearl | Black Pearl mmms. "I am glad to be a friendly face, perhaps more. If you want to discuss pleasure now instead of business? Though the two are intimately entwined for me." |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror says, "Oh but of course. I'm something of a fan of any form of pleasure that can be described as business."
"Just pray tell, what do you have in mind, if anything?" |
| Black Pearl | "Well, what would you care for? Liquor? Other intoxicants? Something of a mor physical nature? Or simply to enjoy the talk and music below? All of these, and more, are within the walls, and I take a great delight in making sure that my clients are well-pleased." |
| Oracle of the Frozen Mirror | Oracle of the Frozen Mirror "I would enjoy... Hmm. Lets say a curated exposition of those things that you enjoy, I find that it is oft better shared with company, especially with one as attractive as you." |
| Black Pearl | "Well, the first thing that I would enjoy at the moment, is a nice massage, so come with me, and after that, relax." She stands up and the doors are opened. "Come and enjoy."
She leads the way down the stairs and then into one of the different hallways from the main restraunt, to a different area. There are hot and cold baths, tables where massuers and masseuses have their work over the clients. "Please, make yourself confortable, and enjoy." |
