(1109) Eternal Summer

    The Eternal Summer continues as the throne Room doors open to another gathering of the Lost. Today the throne room is decorated in the style of its current sovereign. In this case there is no throne or dais. The raised platform has been removed. Instead of the platform and throne, In the center of the room is a brazier with a fire burning. There are a few wind warn ruins that were once pillars. Around the outside of the throne room is what looks like piece of construction that either was never completed, or fell with the passage of time. Perhaps it was a small amphatheater or colosseum. At least, thats what it is made to look like.

    Around the brazier are blankets on the floor and a pile of bedrolls off to the side. The throne room has become a place for elders to tell stories of warriors of old. It is a place to honor our past warriors and those who gave their lives for what we have.

    Off to the side is the normal buffet of food, but there is also things that look hunted, food that would be eaten by men and women who are preparing for battle. A hog on a spit, fresh pheasant and lamb. The tastes and textures of the world that Spartan should have come from are alive in his throne room.

    The only thing left to notice is that in the center of the room, Next to the Brazier sits the Ascendant Sovereign, the King of Summer. As Spartan sits on a blanket, no better or comfortable then any other blanket, He stares into the fire as he stirs it with his sword. His spear leans against a large block of stone. For anyone looking past the Helmet on his head they will see a look of reflection on his face. As if he is far far away, remembering what has come before, and thinking of what may come in the future.

    to kind of give a rough feel for what I see in my head

    Dressed in a white t-shirt emblazoned with "YMCA Debate Club," cargo shorts and sandals, Otto walks in. The were-otter smelling of sea air and cigarettes. Glitter is smeared across the side of his face, neck and shirt. "Hisame Tenti!" he hails the massive Grecian Summer Sovereign with a snappy salute in Japanese. Turning on his heel he makes a beeline for the buffet. Grabbing a knife he craves off a chunk of pig. "If only we had poi." he sighs fondly to himself.

    Rook ignored the buffet for once. He didn't feel much like food as he walked towards the fire, his the flames dancing across his mirrored sunglasses. He glanced down at his hands, remembering the rivets being welded into flesh that was ceasing to be blood and bone but steel. The forges that had made him into a chess piece, the chittering creatures that had swarmed over them, remaking them over and over, echoed through his steel skull like a swarm of hornets.

    And then, unbidden, swimming into his mind, a business card flickered into focus. Writing that hinted at a future he couldn't bear, but couldn't speak of to any other member of the Freehold.

    He sat down on one of the rugs, next to the fire.

    "Hey, Spartan," he said, absently.

    Marcus looks around at the new layout as he enters the Throne Room. Nodding to Spartan and Rook as he walks past them, the Flame Warden makes straight for the buffet. He gives a nod to the beast next to him as he piles his plate with food. Otto can feel the unusual amount of heat emanating from the metalflesh standing next to him.

    "Alright?"

    Circling back toward his fellow Courtiers, Marcus takes a seat on one of the rugs opposite the Summer King. Rook and Spartan might notice a stronger than normal heat haze hanging over the elemental... then again, it might just be caused by the fire burning between them. Marcus doesn't speak until he has completely chewed and swallowed the food in his mouth.

    "I don't suppose you have any brown sauce?"

    "Gentleman." Spartan says and looks to Marcus. "Marcus." Spartan seemed to take the metalflesh in for a moment. "Summer has grown stronger within you." Spartan says with a appreciative look. Spartan was pleased to see the strength growing within one of the most respected men in the hold. "Rook, will you put the call out to our Courtiers. We must meet. There are things that need to be done."

    Rook blinked behind the sunglasses, and felt a jolt of surprise that he'd been asked to put out the call. But Hell, who was he to deny the King of Summer? Also, maybe Spartan just didn't have a cell phone on him. The Metalflesh's rigid fingers dug out the cellphone in his pockets, holding it in a way that seemed almost delicate. But then, with Rook's riveted fingers, sometimes it seemed strange that he could manipulate delicate objects at all.

    "Of course," he said, just to show that he'd heard and understood.

    The Harvest Envoy entered but not in her normal attire of one dress or another that she'd picked out of ther store. Instead, she was wearing black track pants and a white sports tee covered with an unzipped orange hoody. Her hair was tied back out of her eyes, she was breathing heavy and her skin seemed to glisten (because ladies never, ever sweat. They either glisten, glow, or at a push, perspire). Strapped around Terri's waist was a small pack and as she entered, she headed straight for the buffet table, looking for some water or juice. Finding a cup and pouring some OJ, Terri took a swig before approaching the area where everyone was gathered, bowing first to Spartan before addressing everyone.

    "Hi all. Damn its hot out there," she said as she wiped her brow with her hand. She took in all the Mantle's around her, baring Otto's. "Wow, its hot in here too," she chuckled, draining some more of her juice before listening to Spartan's orders to Rook..

    Fu more or less stalks into the throne room his stone dog head tilting to each side to look around the room as he walks to the center. Dark spots are flecked on the cargo pants and dark t-shirt he is wearing, almost looking like splatter. He nods to Spartan. "Hey boss", the others get nods as well. Marcus gets a slightly longer look then a grin.

    Fu walks over to an unoccupied and kicks at a corner with his foot. "Blankets?" They are good for sleeping on but whats with the circle?

    "Good evening Fu." Spartan says, inviting Fu to sit by the fire. "I will explain the setting when the others arrive." Spartan says as he continues to look into the flame, watching it dance as he stirs it.

    Description

    Terri's Mask is that of a petite, cute woman with vibrant red hair that has black streaks throughout. Obviously athletic, her natural demeanour is friendly and she always tends to have a smile on her face.

    Her fae mien is akin to a red squirrel. She has a long bushy tail and ear tufts that poke through her hair. The black streaks are actually black feathers the are a part of her mien now,; a part of her noble order.

    Terri's powerful Mantle initiates itself as the smell of baking bread but brings with it the feeling of the Harvest, that time to take stock of the coming troubles.

    Terri remains standing and approaches the throne, keeping a respectful distance.

    "King Spartan, may I have a brief moment of your time please?" the Harvest Envoy of Autumn asked, her voice polite but confident as her mantle carried itself through and around the stiffling heat of Summer.
