The High Ruler of Camel Eaters sat and listened to the latest reports on the clan war. His eyes sagged as he considered his loneliness. He cracked his neck and had an idea.

"Eureka" He shouted jumping in the air "I'll put out an add for a wife in the international papers!"

OOC: Respond?

We wish to offer the youngest daughter of the president- she is 20 years old, Aryan and very friendly- in return we ask for military hardware

The nation of Tessen wishes to express it's disgust with the trade offer of a young woman for military hardware.

-Tessen

Linfiled read the small sheet listing the girls attributes. He ripped it up and said "No dice."

OOC: Let me specify Linfield is a romantic he'd like to swoon her and such. Plus a little bit more not alot but a little more than just physical attributes might be welcome.

OOC- fine, two women
IC-

The Nation of Tessen is probably not under attack by four countries

She enjoys walks on the beachs, eating chocolate, fancy dinners- her ideal man is a romantic- she really goes for men who dwell in the desert- they says they have nice accents

OOC: Read above post. And you shouldn't have slaughtered all those Christians anyway.

Hmm.

My youngest daughter, Lady Zayla Maguise, is available for marriage. She is currently twenty-six and has fairly long, straight auburn hair. Her eyes are a dark sea green, and although she is tall (6'2"), she knows thirteen different languages and currently acts as a translator in Eldanoran Intelligence. I hope you will consider this offer.

Head of the House of Maguise
Lord Evian Maguise

Does that mean you are interested in meeting her?

Head of the House of Maguise
Lord Evian Maguise

Yes I'd love to meet her.

Excellent. My daughter will arrive shortly in a few days, and she will be accompanied by her brother, Lord Eoen, and two bodyguards (who will remain weaponless). They will be flying in and will land sometime around two or three o'clock. I have arranged transport and accommodations for them.

Head of the House of Maguise
Lord Evian Maguise

"Ahh. Brothers, bodyguards hows a man supposed to find love with so many intervening creatures still around. Oh crap is this thing still on? It is. TURN IT OFF." *sounds of munching and death follow*

Head of the House of Maguise
Lord Evian Maguise

Linfiled Hannon

Fine. But her brother and her bodyguards will still accompany her, regardless.

Head of the House of Maguise

OOC: You want to RP the meeting here?

11am hovering over Camel Eaters International airport outside the capital.....

"Roger Tower this is HW-1 arriving from Hawdawg. Affirmative we will taxi to Diplomatic Hanger 3 upon touchdown. Making final approach now" as the skilled pilot leans forward on the stick of the Lear Jet.

"Madam Wales" says the senior diplomat. "Have you finished studying the official Camel Eaters ettique book?" "I have and to be honest the way official greetings are exchanged by showing your behind to the host is quite shocking!" says Ms. Wales. "If you think that is strange, wait to you see how official state dinners are served. I once saw an entire Steer brought into a Banquet hall to be served to the guests." quipped the Senior diplomat.
"Have the hotel arrangements been set up?" asked Ms. Wales as she noticed the fasten seat belts light come on over her head.

"All arrangements have been made. We will leave the Airport in a three car group and proceed to the Waldorf-Estoria Hotel on Diplomat Drive. The entire top floor is yours ma'am. We will send the security team in for a sweep before you go up and get squared away. Later in the evening a car will arrive to take you to a State Dinner with King Hannon. Dinner will start at approximately 7pm and the car will pick you up at 6pm. It has be cleared for a two man security team to travel with you to the Palace. Once you arrive the King's person Honor Guard will handle your protection inside the Palace." lists the Senior Diplomat.

"Very well." says Ms. Wales.

The plane touches down and rolls down the runway towards the concrete structure marked Diplomatic Hanger 3. As the hanger doors open a very ornately designed inside is exposed. A plush red carpet is rolled out to the steps of the plane as several small men in Tuxedo's rush around preparing last minute things for the arrival. The door of the Lear Jet opens and Ms. Wales steps down onto the plush red carpet.

The two tuxedo clad men shower the entourage with gifts fit for a king but strangely do not speak. From the hand signals they make they appear to be deaf mutes. Even without a voice greeting the group they feel a warmth in this country.

The group loads into the three cars waiting and head toward Diplomatic Drive and the Waldorf

OOC: Yes.

Linfield waited in the room reserved for Jenevee Wales. He had showed up in full dipolmatic gala with his bagpipes propped up on his shoulder. His long kilt hung below his knees as he stood to attention when she opened the door...

OOC: Imagine a man dressed in a kilt with bagpipes waiting for you in your room.

"Your Majesty" as Ms. Wales bowed to the King "What a pleasant unexpected suprise!" "My father has said some very wonderful things about you. Since you brought your bagpipes I was wondering if you could play my favor song My Red Haired Lass. Ettique calls for me to show my rear to you, but.....as she giggles......I hardly know you. Maybe a clansmen handshake will do for now, if the King would allow it?" As Ms. Wales slowly rises from bowing to approach the King.

"I prefer the ettiquete but okay..." After the brief handshake he launches into the song. When he was done he asked if she would like to see his home.
"Whould ya like to see ma home?"

"I would be honored to accompany you to your home gracious King. I would ask that I be allowed to change into something more appropriate for a palace visit. Shall I meet you in the lobby in 10 minutes King Hannon?" asks Ms. Wales as she once again bows to the very handsome King.

"People don't usually call me King mostly just Linfield. Please wear something rather comfortable. I'd prefer if ya did." He leaned over and bowed rather deeply.

"Thank you Linfield. I will follow you advice and wear something comfortable. I will met you downstairs shortly." as she closes the door behind Linfield Hannon.

Jenevee knew just what to wear to the palace this evening. She opened her Armani hanging bag and pulled out a lovely emerald green pant-suit with a light jacket. As she looked at herself in the mirror a thought came to her. "I do look good" she said to herself. Indeed she did the 6' green-eyed lass new how to dress up. The pant-suit she chose beautifully matched the graceful lines her fit body had to offer. Professional, yet tempting in one package. The jacket toned the outfit down just enough.

.......In the lobby................

The strides Jenevee took across the lobby towards Linfield showed a powerful side of the young girl that many had not seen. She definitely was the center of attention in the room. All eyes fixated on her as she reached out for Linfield's arm.

"I am ready now Linfield" said Jenevee as the two strolled to the limo out front.

OOC: off to bed.

Linfield was rather stunned but soon recovered. He looked her up and down and said "Are you absolutely certain that you're comfortable? Yes, well then we're off."

In the limo...
"So I know you speak many languages and that you're good at the martial arts but please tell me about yourself." He settled back ready to listen...

As Jenevee looked Linfield in the eyes she began.....

"Well I was born into a military family as an only child. Since military service is compulsory in Hawdawg every child gets to experience life in this aspect. I enjoyed growing up in this environment because it allowed our family to travel to many places that we otherwise would not have been able to see. When I was young I excelled in the multilanguage classes that were taught in Primary school and was chosen top of my class based on this merit. As an alternative to sports I studied Martial Arts and settled on Akidio since it is a defensive style of combat. I earned my black belt when I graduated from High School. I still train 30 minutes a day to maintain a high fitness level.

Schools are unique in our country in the fact that most of the curriculum is taught via internet and distance learning labs so when military families move from base to base the education of the children is not effected, kids can keep the same teachers they are used to seeing.

Upon graduation from High School I served my two year obligation to the Hawdawg military with the Air Force. While in the Air Force I learned to fly combat helicopters (most people don't know this). After helicopter training I was sent to aide in the teaching of Akidio to Pilots in the Combat Survival Training center in Kossuth.

When I fufilled my term I enrolled at the State College in Kermit where I am studying to earn a degree in Political Science.

This is my basic history. A few things worth mentioning that I didn't say. Linfield I like to speak my mind. I don't "sugar coat" things. I think alot of people get into trouble when they tell people what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear. Sometimes this is considered Frankness I call it what it is in its simplest form Honesty."

As Jenevee leans closer to Linfield she says, "So tell me about yourself."

Linfield nodded and raised an eyebrow at the frankness part.
"Well I was born in the Garzivonni stronghold of Dotherlin. I grew up there tending camels along with Freckula the former High Ruler.

I have not much to speak of in my childhood.

Later though when Freckula and I had gotten old enough our parents entered us into the world of politics. Freckula managed to secure a position on the Garzivonni High Council.

The Garzivonni family was the ruling clan at the time. I was his second. Many years ago after he'd met his wife and had a son, Manxa, I believe his name was. Anyway terrorists claimed his life and for a year that bastard Wertiger Hammaral ruled our great land.

I claimed Wertiger's life myself. Bludsuth claimed his soul and I was named head of my clan. We assumed power and here I am."

He nodded simply as the limo pulled in front of a medium sized castle. Hundreds of men and women crowded the town around it.

"Welcome to Bollon Kay."

"This is a very pretty castle Linfield when was it built?" says Jenevee as she slides over to look up at the high walls of the keep.

"Close to ten thousand years ago. It was built by the Gahlan clan. They splintered and became the Daen clan the Dalcassian clan the Garzivonni clan and the Hannon clans. The Garzivonni clan as I mentioned was wiped out" He bowed slightly and said "My I welcome the lady?"

"Certainly Linfield." says Jenevee as she steps from the limo. While exiting the car Jenevee steps on a wayward pebble and stumbles. Quickly Linfield grabs her to save her from a nasty spill onto the concrete driveway. "Oh my, thank you Linfield" exclaims Jenevee as she regains her balance. "You are so gracious sir thank you for saving me from a certain fall". Jenevee can't help but notice the warm feeling she felt in Linfield's arms just for a split second the strong grasp of the King made her feel safe. The two turn and head for the main entrance of the ornately decorated Bollon Clay Castle.

A bodhan drummer passed by playing rather loudly he nodded simply and said "Linfield." and continued. Linfield approached the door and fiddled with a key and opened the door to Bollon Kay once they were both inside he shut the door.

OOC: posted in war of pipes....I am down with stomach flu will be offline a couple of days, sorry.

Head Hancho of Hawdawg

OOC: Hey you got the stomach flu. No biggie.

He was looking for people who were interested! Nathanite should learn to tread more carefully before a Firebomb hits them...

As the servants scurried around the enormous dinner table Jenevee waited for Linfield to slide out her chair so she could sit down.

The lighting was dim, but non the less, the paintings and medival architecture on the great hall was stunning.

Jenevee turns to Linfield and asks, "Tell me about the fresco's there on the wall. I am keenly interested in the Arts."

"Frescoes? Those are just things passed down among all clans." He gestures to the many different swords and stops on a rather large one. "This" He said picking it up "Is the Second Sword of Nahull Creek. Would you like to hold it? They're still preparing the sheep."

"Yes I would!" exclaims Jenevee. As Linfield passes the sword to Jenevee she has to grab it with both hands because of the weight. "What is the significance of this blade Linfield" asks Jenevee as she performs several sword fighting moves for his enjoyment.

"Aye it's good you asked. The soul of many of the heroes who fought at the Battle of Nahull Creek is inside that sword" He gingerly pats it. "Eight generations of my families souls have been put into it since then. I have a question for you. Do you like children?" He takes the dish from a servant and motions for the staff to sit at the huge table. "Share with us." He says warmly.

"Like we don't already." A cook said. Laughter greeted this statement.

"Since I am an only child I didn't enjoy the triumphs and tribulations of having a younger or older sibling to grow up with. As luck would have it, the Lord blessed my uncles with many children. Through my cousins I was given the joy of seeing young children grow and prosper. I have always enjoyed children of all ages. In fact, I would love to have several children myself. We have no higher blessing than that of bringing a child into this world. Wouldn't you agree?" asks Jenevee as she eyes the growing amount of food on the table.

"Several of you own you say? Well I hope whoever you choose can accomadate your lofty goals." He said sitting next to her while passing food from one servant to another as the food on each plate grew...

"Well that is the plan Linfield, do you want children?" says Jenevee as a rumbling thunderstorm can be heard outside the Castle.

"Well" He smirked "Yes. Many children would be good. Especially the act of making them." The servants chuckled a little.

"Practice does make perfect Linfield" purrs Jenevee. "Is it getting warm in here or is it just me?" she asks.

Linfield nods a little as he slowly pushes his plate back. "Are you still hungry?" He asks her. "Because if you're not I could show you to your abode for the night if you so wish."

"Yes please show me to my room Linfield. This rainstorm has made me a little sleepy." she says.

Linfield gets up and makes a grand bow to the servants before leading Jenevee up the stairs and showing her to a large door. He pushed it open and showed her inside. He stood kind of dumbly not knowing whether or not to leave...

"Might I envite you in Linfield" asks Jenevee. "I need to step in here and start my evening pot of coffee. Would you have a cup with me please?"

Linfield's heart nearly stops. He nods dumbly and walks inside to drink coffee...

Jenevee leans into Linfield almost close enough to touch and says, "So what do you think of me?" she asks as she slowly plays with her long silky hair.

Linfield laughs nervously and shudders a momnet. "There is an old saying. You've married right when the person you're with recognizes you for the idiot you are and loves you anyway. I may lead a nation but I'm not above some major equalizers" He stops calms down and says calmly "I realize I was beating around the bush. To be honest you're freakin' beautiful, young, and rather intelligent. If I were you I may have been out of here hours ago. Which speaks volumes of either my charm or your character."

Blushing from the compliments Jenevee says while taking the Kings hand," Linfield don't beat yourself up, you are a strikingly handsome man who has a very difficult job that you handle quite well. Being a person in power puts strain on people, yet you show a remarkable amount of pose to carry the burden you do.

It is obvious you care greatly for your people, understanding there history and cherishing the preservance of it. I admire you for that. I will be honest I wasn't expecting you to be such a caring individual with all the stately duties you must perform, but you have tugged at my heart strings with the generousity and love you have shown to your people tonight.

I love the your country, the hills and coutryside remind me of that mythical place called Ireland. I know my decendants came from McBoir blood and I feel a strange since of belonging here.

I would love to stay for awhile and explore these things more in depth, all you have to do is ask. I will call and cancel the rest of my diplomatic trip, if you would like me to stay................................"

A long silence, then Linfield clears his throat and says...........................

"Uuuuhhhhhhh...." What are you doing SAY YES!!! he screams at himself he nods and says "Sure. That would most amazing."

3AM............Time flys when you are having fun.................

Yawning Jenevee says,"Very well Linfield, I will make the necessary calls in the morn. But for know I must have some sleep." She stands and gives the King a kiss on the cheek. "Good Night Linfield" she says as she opens the large oak door to her room.

OOC: I have to handle some business this afternoon, I will be back this evening.

Linfield is both happy and dejected at the same time. He stretches and then remembers the thing she said about Ireland. It existed occuring to his last remembrance. He went to his small library and picked out all the good books he could find on Ireland. He left them outside her door...

As Jenevee awakes from her slumber something jogs her memory. "Oops, I said mythical Ireland instead of Mystical Ireland, I hope Linfield didn't catch that" Too late, as she opened the large chamber door a pile of books on Ireland where stacked as high as the door ring. I will have to straighten that out over breakfast she thinks as she heads down the hall towards the Dinner Hall...........

A large Indonesian lady greeted her at the bottom at the stairs. "If you're looking for Linfield he's outside helping the troops unpack their extra gear."

Jenevee walks outside to see a beautiful sunrise. By the main Gate she sees Linfield helps some soldiers unpack some very heavy packs. She is captivated by the genuiness of this man. "Linfield" she calls out as she waves at him.

He stretches and waves back. Walking over to her he says. "Oi. You're up early. Would you like breakfast? I think I may have made enough."

"I always get up early. Yes, I would love some breakfast. What have you prepared?" she asks.

"Oh the usual. Some mutton and eggs with a wee bit of camel back fat." He gestures her inside and brings out a plate from the kitchen. It's piled high with eggs and meat.

"Lots of protein." as Jenevee picks up a fork and starts to eat. "Linfield I mispoke last night and I think you took something the wrong way. When I was describing Ireland I said Mythical instead of Mystical. I had hoped you didn't catch this er but the pile of books at my door this morn said you caught it. I always was captivated by the foggy mist that seems to hang over Ireland and this is what I was trying to say last night. Forgive me Sir, I......uh.........well was having a hard time concentrating on conversation."

"Sir. I'm never going to get used to anybody calling me that. Hard time concentrating on conversation? I thought that was me." He smiled before taking a little sliver of meat for himself.

"So how long would you like me to stay Linfield? I want to learn everything about Camel Eaters because well...........uh..............er.............I would just like to stay.............." Jenevee stutters as she nervously drops her fork on the floor.

"Well it's taken me many years to learn so much about my own nation. I don't know how long you would like to stay. I'd really love for you to stay as long as you want. But umm.....Well.....huh....... Let me get that fork for you."

"How about forever" Jenevee says as she grasps Linfield's hand that picked up the fork.

"Forever? Dwa.....Uhhhh........" Relief floods over him as his face lights up like that of a child. "Sure yes but arrangements must be made. Things have to be decided. Things half to be put into their place and...." He pauses for a momnet and looks at her. "And, and, and, I just would prefer if I had the ability to shut up and enjoy the moment." He dropped the fork in his euphoria.

"Am I being too forward Linfield?" she asks.


OOC: Read my response to your official in C-Rations thread.

"No. Not at all. This is exactly the way Camel Eaters women act. And I prefer a person that speaks their mind. Like you once told me you where." Linfield raises an eyebrow and smiles.

"Aye Linfield, that I do!" as she laughs. "I will call my father with the good news." She turns to a servant in the hall and says, "Please find Mr. Barthey, he has my satellite phone in his briefcase and ask him to bring it to me."

Jenevee stands up to look Linfield in the eye and says, "can we seal this with a kiss Linfield?"

"I was hoping for a greeting but that'll do." He leaned in...

She seized her opportunity and laid a most impressive kiss on Linfield that he soon would not forget.

As he seemed to melt from this experience she wanted to add a little to the smoldering fire she had built in Linfield.

"By the way, I still owe you a salute" she said as she stood and assumed the saluting position and up flapped the dress.

The look on Linfield's face said it all. "Oops, I forgot to put on my bloomers this morn." as her face turned noticeably red.

"I am sooo embarassed" she said as she sheepishly sat back down at the table.

"Well...I really don't want you saluting the troops but other than that I may need a bigger set of pants the next time you salute me." His face was lighten up with laughter and other feelings...

OOC: I will let you handle posting the marriage details,etc in a thread. I am going to be offline tomorrow, but will be back Tues.

I need to work on my factbook for awhile. BBL.
