Before the Storm

What adventures could await the party on the “Dearg-due”?

The Duc: Is that a threat?

After Phedre's relentless fight for change in the Night Court policies (secure employment and financially stable conditions for apprentices who cannot serve as Adepts, as well as he abolishment of non-consensual indentured servitude), the most pronounced changes affected Valerian and Mandrake House. Willing prospective Adepts of the corresponding proclivities can apply to train there only after they reach the age of majority. Conditioning young apprentices to become masochists or sadists has been outlawed and pronounced a breach of Elua’s Precept.

Violette: Do close your mouth, dear, you look like the catch of the day.

Spoiled and irresponsible heiress: D-did they just say I look like a fish?!

Etienne: As a chef, in my professional opinion... yes, you do look like a fish.
