The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

Selina, how is our Princess?

*Esper looks around

Where is our Princess? You were supposed to bring her here unharmed.

*Esper turns to Janc

Janc, if you...

*Esper sees the lake behind Janc and notices the water rippling. She turns back to Selina and smiles.

Excuse me while I go speak to Princess Philomena.

*Esper disappears below the water. She sees a beautiful glow and hears a mesmerizing tune. She waits along the rocks for a moment with Philomena.

Janc should take care, the mermaid would have him under her spell in no time. She tamed Vortigern Jett and made Kalvos turn traitor.

*She looks across the water and frowns. *

Now we have a mermaid in her element, more dangerous than her father's armies if you ask me. We should have kept her on dry land.

*Philomena pops her head out and gives a dangerous smile.*

I won't be going to any cottage... if you want me, you will have to come here and drag me out.

*She gives a defiant flick of the tail and dives below.*

*Janc turns around and glares at the lake*.

That won't help none!....

*He shouts*.

You want to see Kalvos you'd best do as you're told.... You'll get nowt else from us, and only a fool would get in the water with you....

*He grins*.

Be a good little fish and go to the cottage....

No, but it'll only make life for her more difficult... Leave her in the lake... She'll come round in the end...

I don't see Kalvos anywhere... and until I see him, I am not going to do what you tell me.

*She swims and smiles.*

I could sing a little song if you want, you would find yourself swimming soon enough Janc.

No deal Philomena....

*He shakes his head and looks at Fraxon*.

Go get the orc.... He'll get her out, and if he drowns, so what, it's one less orc.....
