“Drones such as Acer are…. Enforcers for Her Imperious Condescension. In exile, Acer raised me. He is my Lusus, or parental custodian. He is an alarming sight to those who do not know him.”
Gazing out, Stelle sang several notes, and the beast appeared.
He towered over them, but knelt low and let Stelle cup her hands under his chin. He rumbled deeply, clearly caring about his small charge.
“Acer, this dreamer is His Excellency, the Duke of Weselton. He is a visitor.”
The Lone Moon was lustrous in its ocean of sky. Stelle stood at a long pool of still water, gazing into the deep blue. Gilded fish swam about, some bobbing up at the surface.
The Pierrot Troll picked up an ivory dish, laden with pellets. She tossed pellets to the water, watching as the lazy fish sprang to life.
It was lonely here. Were there Dreamers out to see her?
"So I will let you take the lead now. This hall is the main and hardly changes." Stelle showed Edgar the grand marble hall. Stained glass filtered moonlight in colors of golds, greens, and purples.
There were detailed statues of beasts and monsters guarding doors, and fine gilded reliefs on oak railings.
"Well... This is where we start. Choose a path and we will see, Your Excellency."

Soldan would find herself at a village bordering a looming forest. Trolls of varying ages were working. It was Boiling Season, and wheelbarrows laden with thick, deep red taproots were being taken to a workhouse. Adult Trolls were working there, as the children dug up taproots.
These Trolls lived in poverty, and as others were going to work in the workhouse, one would be seen gathering a bag and wearing a bell.
"New here?" One villager asked Soldan. "Looking for someone?"

Stelle had entrusted her friend to check on her brother, a Troll living on Harmonus.
Harmonus' main metropolis was a dizzying whirlwind of color and co-existence, fed by many worlds and universes with Trolls.
The train would take Soldan to a more rural place, and the manner of folks on the train went from enthusiastic tourists and locals on daily errands to farmers and sorts that seemed... ...Shady.
Subdued Subjuggalos, other Highbloods that seemed to be ready to hunt, exchanging money with a farmer to "Cull the Wilderwood."
Stelle straightened, "I thank His Excellency for inviting me." Stelle presented a velvet black drawstring back. "These are for you."
For the Queen,
A necklace crowned with fine diamonds. The gold shimmered with the moon's glow.
For the King, a ring of gold, only this particular ring was different as far as astronomy signs. This one was made for a larger scale of space and time.
"This has where this world is in this universe, and help map skies beyond what you see."

It had been planned for when the Veil thinned. Stelle embraced Acer, bidding him goodbye.
She was off to Weselton, to finally meet others face to face. She had a suitcase of her things, and a costume for a masquerade ball that she was invited to on behalf of the Duke.
The other case had gifts for the Duke, to show her gratitude. Books of Harmonian tales, maps, gemstones...
She hoped to make a good impression as she went through the doors, to enter the waking world for the first time.
"Great!" Rennoh went to examine the spider lilies, and then the soil. He was careful, as if listening to the actual plant's needs.
"Your home is lovely, Soldan. Earth is definitely different."
Soldan seems to busy gardening, since Spring started and she's bought a few flowers that are in season. A few sunflower seeds planted carefully, some Lavender and Star Liliies to add in.

Your name is Palmia Nasrin, and you spent your 8 Sweeps of life in the Wilderwood.
You enjoy exploring, foraging with Rennoh, and chasing off Poachers.
The Wilderwood of Harmonus is home to all kinds of beasts and monsters. You are quite at home with them, as you had been with the Golden Hind since you were a Pupate. Something about a fawn unjustly killed so the village leadership threw you to the rampaging doe. Whatever. Doe Mother loves you, and her herd is your family.
Your Orange blood isn’t at all indicative of your nature. You are tall, bold, and are not afraid of anyone who comes into your territory. If it’s Rennoh, though, well, you know where the good forage is. You trust the light of your Lantern to guide the way.
What’s a Trolltag? Sounds gross.
This plot involves Rennoh Cadrea, in a version of Alternia that contains the unique horror known as public schools (especially USAmerican)
This school also enforces the Hemospectrum Caste System, and has all castes except Seadwellers (they have a cushy boarding school).
Rennoh is a transfer student from Harmonus, and because of his region's culture, refuses to disclose blood color and accepts being in the 'Lowblood' level. The teacher is a staunch pro-Monarchy, pro-Caste system and bullies Rennoh (but that ends up sparing others)
Just tossing it out there.
