[The first thing that appears is a strange mark in the journals. Then, underneath it, the most elegant handwriting of the Xoan Ambassador.]

This mark and attached notice are here to alert you to great news. The news, of course, is that your journals are now the property of Mistress. She will let you look after them for the time being, as a sign of her good will. She's a very generous dictatress, you know.

Have a pleasant day!

(( ooc: Also have a matching log post for in-person interactions!

Sandoval is awful, so if you or your character(s) are uncomfortable with sexual material, please post HERE for my reference! Thank you! ))

Oh, I am, to be sure! There's a reason the Mistress keeps me around as her pet ambassador, after all. But I wouldn't have it any other way, I don't think. If I did, then I'd be stuck entertaining Prince Cyrron of Aub or some dreadful thing like that.

[onlyanapple]

Oh what a poor life you would have led.

[sandoval]

Indeed! He's really no fun - hopefully one of those scorpions stung him when he opened the box Mistress sent him, but, that may just be my opinion.

[onlyanapple]

...Scorpions, huh? Romantic.

[sandoval]

Well, he did try to poison her with a slave's cock first. It's only fair.

[onlyanapple]

...

Right. That's normal and...fair?

[sandoval]

I'm so glad you agree with me! He could have been polite and sent an assassin, but nooo, he had to be sneaky about it.

[onlyanapple]

Well that's just not fair, not in such a....serious business venture as this? [He worries about your life sometimes, Sandoval. He really does]

[sandoval]

[You should see him when he's drunk.]

All is fair in love and war - and "gifts" for "ambassadorial" purposes. He sends her a slave with a poisoned cock - she sent the ambassador's head back in a box with scorpions. Fair trade, I think.

[onlyanapple]

It really sets the tone of talks, no one's getting off on the wrong foot.

[sandoval]

You're right! We can skip the pleasantries right off. Makes negotiations much simpler, in the end, though more blood is involved, usually.

[onlyanapple]

Not a big favourite of mine, really. The blood thing.

[sandoval]

Oh believe me, I'm the same way - I much prefer to keep my hands clean. That's why I let Mistress do it all!

[onlyanapple]

And I'm sure she actively enjoys that.

[sandoval]

Oh, I'm sure she does. Her torture room is quite a sight to behold, back home. And her collection of skulls is also quite impressive!

[onlyanapple]

I take it the skulls come from the torture room, eventually.

[sandoval]

Only some of them! She can't display them all, you know.

[onlyanapple]

Oh of course not. I imagine she has a lot of them.

[sandoval]

I bet if she saved up she could make a whole castle out of them.

[onlyanapple]

Hang them from the ceilings and whatnot.
