The entry hall of Lioncourt's castle is a vast, gothic thing, with deep burgundy tapestries on the walls and matching carpet underfoot. The precisely-fitted masonry has been polished within an inch of its life, the dark stone gleaming sullenly in the insistently cheery light of the newly-installed electric lamps.

Within the high arches of the surrounding baulaustrades, two women intone the same spell, matching each other's cadence: A pale girl, looking little older than a child, and a tall, red-haired woman with serious slate-grey eyes.

As the last syllable fades, twin portals shimmer into existence: the first multiversal party in the Many Worlds is officially underway!

Two women step through a gate one is small and slender with light skin and moves with natural unconscious grace. The other is several inches taller, much more stocky, and with medium toned skin.

Both are dressed in similar outfits of bright blue and cream, with long capes. Their arms are bare from the elbows, revealing long ridges along the forearms of the shorter woman with openings at the wrists. As the gate closes behind them a tentacle (thin, slightly paler then the skin of the arm itself) emerges from one opening on the underside of the arm to wrap around her Companion's wrist, and the Companion in turn places her opposite hand on her channel's shoulder.

"Welcome," says Cordelia. "In exchange for Lioncourt's hospitality for the duration of the party, and safe passage home, will you swear a magically binding oath to harm none while you are here, and to not venture outside the castle grounds so as to prevent multiversal incident?"

Two serious nods.

Anda says "It is my charge as a Householding channel to prevent harm." She makes a sweeping gesture with two tentacles. "I will gladly swear your oath."

Linsa says "I as well."

"I suppose - oh, I don't know your name! I'm Hajene Anda, but the title doesn't mean much here so you can call me Anda. My Companion is Linsa."

"I'm Cordelia. Leaf's mother," she explains. "I came early to help Lioncourt retrieve her guests. It's good to meet you."

"Likewise." Linsa nods and smiles.

They wander off to mingle.
