<div align="center"><strong>Viviana</strong></div><br/>Viviana whirled on her feet and quickly kissed both parents goodbye, far from noting the twinkle in her mother's eye. She floated down the room toward the door and motioned for everyone to follow her. Out the door and through the Throne Room she lead them. Down a few winding corridors and about ten minutes later, they arrived at a vast stone dining hall. Framed portraits and sconces lined the walls and expensive rugs lined the floor but in the center was a long sturdy mahogany dining table, surrounded by 20 or so ornate sturdy mahogany chairs. Dangling above the table was a huge chandelier.<br/><br/>Viviana traveled lithely to the opposite end and waited expectantly for her companions to join her. Once they were all seated, food began appearing from the kitchen. It was far more than anyone could eat. There was an entire pig on a platter, a whole rotisserie chicken, and slabs of beef. A multi-tiered seafood platter emerged including lobster, crab, scallops, shrimp, clams, and mussels. There were vegetables galore, exotic fruits and cheeses on trays, and various breads. Once the dishes were set before them, servants stood near to serve the food and refill the water and wine glasses.<br/><br/>Viviana requested a bit of chicken, fruit, cheese, and bread. She placed her napkin in her lap and sat up straight using various utensils out of the extensive amount of silverware placed in front of each individual. She chewed each bite thoroughly, sipping a bit from both the wine and water goblets, and dabbing politely at her mouth every now and then.<br/><br/>She knew it was custom, unless her father was present to set the tone, to eat in silence but she just couldn't contain herself. She was lucky to chew and swallow her food before blurting out questions in between bites.<br/><br/>"Oh please tell me all about your father!" She looked to the Mage, Barbarian, and Drow. "I have read so many books but they tell me nothing of personality and what all is done during the down time." She took another bite and chewed, swallowed. "And also tell me more of Drow society..." She gasped, "Have you been to the... Underdark?" With the new personalities before her, she had forgotten for the time being about her numerous other questions to Kyle, Tiagar, and Phaerbryn.<br/><br/><div align="center"><strong>Phaerbryn</strong></div><br/>Phaerbryn was famished by the time they reached the dining hall. She was impressed with the display but was even more impressed with the array of food. Her mouth was watering by the time all the food was placed on the table and she immediately stood and began serving herself. A servant behind her cleared her throat and looked disapprovingly at Bryn. Bryn crinkled her nose at the servant but backed away from the food, sitting.<br/><br/>Bryn knew the proper utensils to use on a normal place setting but there were more utensils laid on the table than she thought could ever be needed. She picked up a fork and knife and went at the food in front of her. After devouring the entirety of her plate and drinking greedily from both water and wine goblets, she asked for a second helping.
