The "afterparty" is rumored to be the real main event of the night. A black-tie affair in the lavish, opulent ballroom, it is every new Knight's chance to mingle and meet some of their new brothers in arms. Of course, a couple hours are provided following the ceremony for everyone to change, do hair and makeup, and choose from the vast array of formal attire in the closets of the balcony "dressing rooms" located at the top of spiraled staircases on either side of the ballroom. A separate dressing room exists for men and women, and they include full bathrooms (with, thankfully, very modern plumbing).

The squires are usually among the last to arrive, and the ballroom is full to the brim with a fancy array of people, of all shapes, sizes and species.

Hope none of you are shy. They're all here to meet you.

Feel free to make your own open threads for people to come congratulate your newly pledged knight.

My family owns some land that opens up to a state park. There's plenty of land there. We even own some cabins so you wouldn't have to deal with them. [She shrugs.] It's not perfect, but if it would help.

[king]

It certainly would. I'd appreciate it.

[ Arthur gives her a little smile. ]

Your father is a lord, then?

[ An assumption he makes based on the fact that he owns his own land... ]

[She smiles back, glad to help.]

Not exactly. It's been a long time since we've used terms like that. These days it's money that buys you land, not favor.

[king]

Wealthy, then, but not titled. But I was told there's still a royal family in Albi— er, in Britain?
