Guiding the Powerful Yet Incompetent, Thursday, Third Period

[tellmehowstuffworks]

"The king," Yennefer said, "has decided to host a tourney in celebration of the harvest. Also he might be planning to participate to provide himself with some successes for those tapestries he's so set on, but that's not your problem. Your problem is the celebratory feast which will be served in honor of the victors at the end of the tourney. It has just come to your attention that he has ordered served, rather than a multi-course meal of fine dishes, the sort of stew one might find in your average village tavern. Probably it has rat in. He thinks this will be rather droll. You think a large number of nobles and knights who are already armed are going to be offended. What do you do?"

Stew? We're worried about stew?

You can't just feed people fast food.

"It has, of course," Belle began, "occurred to Your Majesty that if stew is the only thing served then it will also be the only thing Your Majesty will be able to eat during the feast?"

"With the rat," Shuri added. "And probably raccoon."

Re: Convince the King

Belle shuddered at the very thought eating raccoons seemed very wrong though she didn't know why.

"Such a prank could hardly be worth it."

Re: Convince the King

[scoffs_at_tradition]

Shuri only had a very vague idea of what a raccoon even was!

"Grasscutter is much better," Shuri said.

Yennefer had the unfortunate responsibility to explain to Belle, "His Majesty...likes...the stew. He finds it amusing."

Re: Convince the King

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Well, that was unfortunate.

"Perhaps His Majesty might consider serving the stew only as a jest, with the true meal to follow?"

Talk to Yennefer
