- A glass-roofed garden courtyard (indoors).
- This open space sits at the centre of the Ty Beirdd estate, protected from the weather by
- a vaulted glass ceiling. Nestled around the edges of the courtyard, broad-leaf ferns and
- other hardy greenery grow with little rhyme or reason. Crawling vines climb all along the
- outer walls, dotted here and there with colourful blossoms. Plain sandstone paths lead
- from each building in the complex, meeting at a three-tiered fountain in the centre. Fed
- by a natural spring deep beneath the manor, the fountain bubbles with joyful serenity, and
- its trickling laugh tickles every corner of the courtyard. The sun warms the sandstone,
- leaving the moist air soporific during the day and pleasantly bracing at night. A wide arc
- of sky is visible through the sparkling clear glass, making the space feel open and free,
- as though there were no ceiling at all. A runic totem is planted solidly in the ground.

- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I have five pieces to display today, and I will
- explain a little bit about them as I do. Questions and comments are welcome as I talk
- about each piece, or at the end. Any time, really. I enjoy discussing art!"
- Elyra's eyes sparkle with amusement.
- Araig nods his head at Elyra.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Hopefully you will enjoy an example of what I have

- Ilira arrives from the west.
- Krypton takes a brief smell of a garden teacup of chocolate and caramel quills.

- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "No problem!"
- Ilira says to Elyra in a warm, musical voice, "Congratulations dearest."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "406164 is the first painting. It is an early self
- portrait of myself."
- This simple easel is of tripod design, with adjustable legs that can be folded for
- portability or tabletop use, in addition to providing a sturdy workspace for the standing
- or seated artist. It is crafted of oak stained dark brown, nearly black, enabling its use
- for displaying painted canvases as well as works-in-progress. Upon it is displayed a
- painting entitled Self Portrait. The small canvas is covered with simple lines that form
- the head and face of a mhun woman. Although her face is turned slightly to the left, her
- eyes stare straight ahead. The borders of her eyes consist of thick, slanted, black lines
- that draw attention toward the charcoal black irises. The profile of the mhun's face and
- the rest of her features are painted with lines in a deep, russet red colour. A sharp
- curve suggests a small, thin nose and a few splashes of the dark red seem to be a thin
- mouth quirked up into a smile. The woman's face is a pale bone-white, with a washed out
- grey adding stark shadows near her eyes, cheekbones and nose. The shadows give her a thin
- and angular appearance. In the same colour as the dark black eyes, thick streaks of hair
- fall in straight lines down past her chin and out of view. Amid the hair in the bottom
- right corner of the painting is the name, "Elyra" written in an elegant, white script.
- It weighs about 13 pounds.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I drew inspiration for the colours from the Blade
- I held as a Blademaster at the time and I felt like the colour choices reflected who I was
- and what was important to me. The style is rather simplistic, and I love how it turned out.
- "
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I enjoy how a few lines can draw together the
- image of a face so easily, as our eyes always seem to pick out a face naturally in
- whatever we can. The challenge is not to complicate it too much."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "As I grow I know I will change and maybe not look
- exactly the same, but I like having an image of myself as a painting student to look back
- on."
- Aereidhna smiles softly.
- Elyra smiles impishly and says in a calm, confident voice, "Any questions or comments so
- far?"
- Idissa raises her hand in the air.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "For those of you unfamiliar with the Virtuosi easels,
- just PROBE it to see the painting."
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "Thank you, Mazel."
- Aerilaen arrives from the west.
- Elyra tilts her head curiously at Idissa.
- Idissa says in a delicate, shy voice, "Why did you choose painting?"
- -
- Mokoshie waves about a simple, lightweight morning star energetically.
- Mokoshie bows respectfully to Aereidhna.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I love the way you can express yourself with a few
- splashes of colour, and make somebody feel the feeling you felt while painting. It's like
- magic!"
- Elyra's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.
- Idissa's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.
- Mazel raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra tilts her head curiously at Mazel.
- Laedha rubs her hands together greedily.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "Why did you choose a line painting, instead of a more
- realistic style?"
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I thought it would be an interesting challenge
- first off, and also I think the way I see myself isn't really harshly realistic. I thought
- a more stylized painting would capture some of my personal emotions."
- Aereidhna raises her hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Aereidhna.
- Aereidhna asks with a lyrical southern accent, "What were the most evocative emotions for
- you when you were painting it?"
- Aereidhna says with a lyrical southern accent, "You don't have to answer if that's too
- personal."
- Aereidhna smiles softly at Elyra.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "At the time I was very passionately connected to
- my Blade. I felt I had to express it somehow in a picture of even my own face, to really
- put my soul onto the canvas."
- Elyra's expression softens as she smiles shyly.
- Aereidhna's face lights up with joy as she beams at Elyra.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "So the colour choices carried that through."
- Aereidhna says with a lyrical southern accent, "It comes across beautifully."
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "Okay, next!"
- -
- Ilira's eyes twinkle enchantingly at Elyra.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Here we have 402577, my imagining of the famed
- Blademaster Lucaine Pyramides."
- Elyra gestures to the painting.
- This simple easel is of tripod design, with adjustable legs that can be folded for
- portability or tabletop use, in addition to providing a sturdy workspace for the standing
- or seated artist. It is crafted of oak stained dark brown, nearly black, enabling its use
- for displaying painted canvases as well as works-in-progress. Upon it is displayed a
- painting entitled Luciane Pyramides. The watercolour painting shows a man standing braced
- for battle on an indistinct grassy field. His face is set into a stern expression and his
- dark hazel eyes seem to flash with the white highlights in them. His skin is a lightly
- bronzed brown with coppery shadows. The man has a thin, almost gaunt face with a straight
- nose, a strong, square chin and lips that are pressed together with determination. His
- messy and disheveled hair is a collection of short, wispy coal black brushstrokes piled
- onto his head. A burnished red scabbard composed of thin lines is strapped at the man's
- side with a thick brown belt. His right hand reaches for the dark grey hilt of his sword,
- fingers stretched at the ready. The left arm is held up, hand in front of him. His sturdy
- legs are bent slightly, with his faded black boots sinking into the wisps of olive green
- grass below him. Little curves and curls of pale grey accented with lines of black
- represent the plain suit of ring mail the man is wearing. The sleeves of a dark shirt and
- leggings in a dusky beige can be glimpsed underneath the armour. Scrawled under his boots
- is the name, "Lucaine Pyramides", written in an elegant black script.
- It weighs about 13 pounds.
- Araig leans closer to the easel.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "This was a very fun painting, as I let my
- imagination run wild around the idea of what kind of person he was."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I read a lot of history in search of somebody who
- could inspire a painting, and the amazing tale of Lucaine Pyramides life and his beautiful
- poetry touched me deeply."
- Elyra nods her head emphatically.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "After reading as much as I could, I tried to
- picture what he might have appeared as on my own and attempted to bring his life out in a
- slightly more realistic style, with a sort of ethereal feel thanks to the watercolour
- choice."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I hope you may feel like we're able to look
- through time a bit and get a glimpse of what this impressive man may have been like. If
- you have any questions regarding this one I'd be happy to hear them."
- The rich, sensual scent of leather surrounds Ahmet, intermingling seamlessly with smoky
- notes of cut cedar to produce a distinct, primal bouquet.
- Rilinstra arrives from the west.
- Laedha raises her hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Laedha.
- Laedha says in a silvery voice, "What did you learn about his appearance from what you
- read?"
- Zbaco has entered the area.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "His eye and hair colour. As well as where he came
- from."
- Raza raises her hand in the air.
- Elyra tilts her head curiously at Raza.
- Zbaco arrives from the west.
- Raza says to Elyra in a delicate voice, "What drove you to do this piece?"
- Aerilaen leaves to the west.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Reading through heaps of history, his beautiful
- poetry shines like a gem amidst all the recollections."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I could not help but be attracted to the idea of
- bringing him to life."
- Araig raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Araig.
- You watch Rilinstra quickly devour a delicate cucumber sandwich on whole wheat.
- Araig says to Elyra with a Vashnarian accent, "After learning of this historical figure,
- did your own understanding of yourself change at all?"
- Rekken has been slain by the might of a mutated horkvali inmate.
- Ilira picks up a delicate cucumber sandwich on whole wheat.
- You watch Idissa quickly devour a delicate cucumber sandwich on whole wheat.
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "At the time I was a Blademaster, and I
- felt great honour to be coming from something similar as him."
- You watch Ilira quickly devour a delicate cucumber sandwich on whole wheat.
- Ilira picks up a glass of fizzy lemonade and black tea.
- -
- Ilira takes a long sip from a glass of fizzy lemonade and black tea, her expression
- neutral but her eyes seeming to smile.
- Araig nods his head at Elyra.
- The corners of Mazel's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.
- Rane says in a deeply calm voice, "Interesting, a sailor, poet warrior! I'll have to ask
- you more about this person later."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I like to imagine how somebody would paint me, if
- they heard about me."
- Elyra grins and nods at Rane.
- Ilira takes a long sip from a glass of fizzy lemonade and black tea, her expression
- neutral but her eyes seeming to smile.
- Ilira finishes off a glass of fizzy lemonade and black tea.
- Laedha flashes Elyra a joyous smile.
- Elyra says to Rane in a calm, confident voice, "There is a statue of him to see, too. I
- tried to imagine him on my own before I saw the statue, though."
- Elyra smiles impishly and says in a calm, confident voice, "406780 is an example of a
- landscape, which were always a little more tough for me. Capturing the feel of a place is
- quite different than capturing the look and personality of a person in a portrait piece."
- You watch Rilinstra eat half a dozen chocolate-covered caramel quills from a garden teacup
- This simple easel is of tripod design, with adjustable legs that can be folded for
- portability or tabletop use, in addition to providing a sturdy workspace for the standing
- or seated artist. It is crafted of oak stained dark brown, nearly black, enabling its use
- for displaying painted canvases as well as works-in-progress. Upon it is displayed a
- painting entitled Orchard. This oil painting depicts two lines of organized trees in an
- orchard, with a line of trees on either side that starts up close and continues far into
- the distance. The leaves upon the thin branches on the tops form a little arch over the
- clear path down the centre and are deep emerald, with flashes of pale green highlights.
- Nestled comfortably among the leaves are a few diminutive, dark purple orbs that comprise
- the ripe plums hanging in every tree. A splash of sapphire sky can be seen over the tops
- of the leaves, which are supported by thin, spindly trunks in dark burgundy. An old and
- rickety sepia-coloured ladder leans against a trunk to the right, disappearing into the
- foliage at the top and sunk into the rich green grass that carpets the orchard at the
- bottom. A maiden is climbing the ladder, her pale arm outstretched for the next step. She
- wears a simple ivory shift with her silver hair falling in waves down her back and below
- her is a little blackbird perched in the grass, gazing up at the maiden.
- It weighs about 13 pounds.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "The orchard in this painting is not a real place,
- and the girl is not a real person. Yet, I spent so long imagining this image that I feel
- as if they existed in some place for me. I wanted the viewer to feel this as well."
- Elyra shrugs helplessly.
- Rilinstra sniffs a garden teacup of chocolate and caramel quills, trying to decipher just
- what that smell is.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "That is always my goal with a painting. To make
- you have a similar emotion to what I felt creating it."
- Elyra nods her head emphatically.
- Raza beams broadly at Elyra.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I enjoy the colour choices in this one. Colour
- turned out to be my favourite part of painting."
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "Questions? Comments?"
- Nemesian Durzaan Darkmist, Trial-Elect of Antagony has broken Cen's spine with a
- backbreaker, slaying him.
- Araig raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra tilts her head curiously at Araig.
- Ilira picks up a garden teacup of chocolate and caramel quills.
- Araig says with a Vashnarian accent, "Is that why you chose oil? The colours?"
- Rane says in a deeply calm voice, "Who is the maiden?"
- Ilira takes a sip of Imperial Green tea, savouring the smooth, herbal flavour.
- Ilira takes a sip of Imperial Green tea, savouring the smooth, herbal flavour.
- Ilira takes a final sip of Imperial Green tea, savouring the smooth, herbal flavour.
- Ilira mutters discontentedly.
- Ilira puts a cup of Imperial Green tea into a cormorant-feathered knapsack.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "The maiden is a girl from my dreams, maybe. Just
- an idea of a person."
- -

- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "The brushstrokes you use make a
- difference. Bold ones make bright things that pop out, wispy and more thoughtful ones give
- a whole different feel."
- Kenara says to Elyra in a soft, drawling voice, "When choosing a landscape, what made you
- choose plum trees? Do they have some significance to you personally?"
- Elyra laughingly says in a calm, confident voice, "I was spending a lot of time sitting in
- an orchard of plum and pear."
- Kenara's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.
- Ilira's eyes sparkle with amusement.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Their trees feel like home to me."
- Kenara nods her head at Elyra.
- The vague outline of a doorway begins to coalesce in the air before you.
- A flickering rift comes into existence in mid air, a bright light emanating from within.
- "Ummmm," Ilira says uncertainly.
- Ilira stares implacably at a flickering rift.
- Elyra hums a happy tune.

- Mazel coughs softly.
- Mazel urges Elyra onwards.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "In a different direction, 418361 is a simple still
- life. Not something I had a lot of practice painting, which made it a fun challenge."
- Durzaan falls in a blaze of silver to Legionnaire Ankhareoutef, the Undying's sword,
- Eternal Storms.
- This simple easel is of tripod design, with adjustable legs that can be folded for
- portability or tabletop use, in addition to providing a sturdy workspace for the standing
- or seated artist. It is crafted of oak stained dark brown, nearly black, enabling its use
- for displaying painted canvases as well as works-in-progress. Upon it is displayed a
- painting entitled Tea. This oil painting is of a teacup viewed from an angle slightly
- above, with the full, round body of the cup coloured a bright ivory and a thin black
- border defining its plump shape. A sharp shadow on the left cuts across in a broad curve
- to throw half the cup and the base supporting it into darkness, making the colour there
- dusky and grey. A small rose is painted on the cup in delicate lines with its petals
- spread out comfortably. It blossoms along the side of the cup in pale pink edged with deep
- red, with half the flower caught in the shadow that leeches the colour and leaves the
- petals there a washed out shade of what they are in the light. A pale, slender handle
- extends to the right side, and on the top of the cup a thick line of tarnished gold gilt
- circles the rim and catches the light in a spot of bright white. A rich, dark burgundy tea
- highlighted with hazel fills the cup nearly to the top. Above the tea, steam is depicted
- with delicate and twisting lines of silver reaching up and turning over themselves. The
- full cup rests upon a simple, off-white saucer, which is trimmed in gold around its border.
- The teacup and saucer cast a charcoal shadow upon the granite coloured table below, which
- is made up of broad brushstrokes going in all directions. In the bottom right corner of
- the painting, the letters EV have been written in a delicate black script.
- It weighs about 13 pounds.
- Krypton leaves to the west, a wyvern reflected in his eyes.
- Krypton enters from the west, a wyvern reflected in his eyes.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Here I wanted to make a viewer feel as if they
- could reach out and pick up the image. Yet, while still realistic, I think in this later
- painting you can really see my personal style that started coming through as I developed
- my painting."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "It was interesting to me how the simplicity of the
- image did not detract from the effort of painting it. In fact, paintings with more going
- on do not require you to focus so much on the little details."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "If there are any questions regarding this piece I
- would be happy to take them."
- Ilira's lashes flutter slightly as her eyes twinkle enchantingly.
- Mazel raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Mazel.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "Why a teacup?"
- Ilira nods her head, the feathery curls framing her face bouncing lightly against her rosy
- cheeks with the movement.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I like to paint things that mean something to me.
- That I see often, and when I see them they bring me joy. I think my paintings come out
- more clear and with more love in this way."
- Elyra whispers in a calm, confident voice, "I drink a lot of tea. I love their beautiful
- cups."
- Ilira grins mischievously at Elyra.
- The corners of Mazel's mouth turn up as he grins mischievously.

- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Probably this final one, 418993, is my favourite
- painting. It is of an actual scene I have viewed on occasion, which I attempted to bring
- out in paint."
- This simple easel is of tripod design, with adjustable legs that can be folded for
- portability or tabletop use, in addition to providing a sturdy workspace for the standing
- or seated artist. It is crafted of oak stained dark brown, nearly black, enabling its use
- for displaying painted canvases as well as works-in-progress. Upon it is displayed a
- painting entitled Sailing. This watercolour painting displays a pair of atavians standing
- at the bow of a ship, facing away into the sea before them so that only the back of their
- heads and wings may be viewed. The broad shouldered atavian on the left stands much taller
- than the figure on the right. Wispy brushstrokes comprise the wings folded neatly at their
- backs, obscuring most of their bodies. The larger atavian on the left possesses massive
- wings in shades of white and is topped with short and messy jet black hair. The smaller
- figure has her own dark hair neatly braided and trailing down her back between her raven
- colored wings. A thick, sturdy arm from the left and a slender, graceful arm from the
- right meet in the middle between the two, with fingers laced together. They both stand
- firmly upon planks that are represented by rough strokes in washed out shades of hazel and
- chestnut brown. The edge of the ship around the pair rises in a short barrier as the bow
- of the ship stretches out and meets at a point a little before the two figures. A handful
- of ropes of varying thickness streak out as black lines above their heads that come from
- behind them and meet in front of them. Below a dark horizon line a third of the way down
- from top of the painting is an ocean glimpsed over the ship in cool blue-gray, with small
- splashes of white seafoam spray and highlights of pale gray along the waves. Up above on
- the ocean is a collection of silver smudges across a background of navy blue, making up
- the clouded sky.
- It weighs about 13 pounds.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "Compared to the previous painting, this has a lot
- more going on. It requires a different focus and gives a completely different vibe as a
- finished product."
- The rich, sensual scent of leather surrounds Ahmet, intermingling seamlessly with smoky
- notes of cut cedar to produce a distinct, primal bouquet.
- Keorin arrives from the west.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I think watercolours are my favourite to paint
- with. I like how you can still get a realistic look along with a sort of washed out dreamy
- feel. I hope I captured that in this piece."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "This is the last one! If there are any questions
- or comments about this painting or any of the others, please go ahead and voice them. I
- really enjoy discussing art, almost as much as I enjoy creating it."
- Mazel raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Mazel.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "I'd like to hear a bit about your inspiration for this
- piece."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "As I said, I like to paint things that mean
- something to me."
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I was attempting to bring to life in paint a scene
- from my childhood, which means more than anything to me. That is why this piece is the
- closest to my heart."
- Elyra coughs softly.
- Elyra blushes furiously.
- Navarr raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra nods her head at Navarr.
- Laedha flashes Elyra a joyous smile.
- Myla has entered the area.
- Sabetha, riding a lean grizzly bear, arrives from the west.
- Rane says in a deeply calm voice, "Shall we start the bidding?"
- Rane snickers softly to himself.
- Elyra grins mischievously at Rane.
- Rhalts's mouth turns up as his face breaks into a smile.
- Ilira's eyes sparkle with amusement.
- Idissa picks up a grilled portobello sandwich.
- Sabetha inches bashfully over to Keorin and nuzzles her tenderly.
- Idissa bites into the sandwich with a crunch. She continues with large bites until the
- sandwich is gone.
- Elyra laughingly says in a calm, confident voice, "My art is free for all to enjoy."
- Sabetha, riding a lean grizzly bear, leaves to the west.
- Araig raises his hand in the air.
- Idissa takes a sip of a glass of sparkling jasmine tea, the intense fragrance wafting
- about her.
- Navarr says in a deep, resonant voice, "You've mentioned the paints, the colours, the
- brushstrokes you used, the research you did, the history of your pieces....but what about
- the underlying material onto which you painted? The canvas...parchments....how they're
- woven and prepared, their intrinsic qualities and colours?"
- Discurean Ranger, Ahmet Ter'sez's breath crackles and sparks as he says, "My starting bid,
- two years of Rane doing all your chores and housework."
- Mazel tilts his head and listens intently to Elyra.
- Laedha's lips quirk into an amused half-smile, one eyebrow raised.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I like to paint on a simple canvas. And I usually
- choose my colours as I am painting. I like to wait until inspiration hits me, and then I
- will throw everything at a canvas, and then start refining and redoing it until it seems
- like a finished product. A simple canvas is nice to paint upon, as it offers an eager
- surface."
- Keorin takes a drink from a black-walnut vial.
- Raza grins mischievously at Elyra.
- Araig raises his hand in the air.
- Elyra tilts her head curiously at Araig.
- Navarr's mouth turns up as his face breaks into a smile.
- Araig says with a Vashnarian accent, "In general, does the overall feeling that your want
- your paintings to evoke, either emotionally or in artistic style, exist in your mind ahead
- of time, or does it evolve naturally over several drafts? Do you change styles and colours
- part way through, deciding on a better path as you see how it is coming out?"
- Raza raises an eyebrow questioningly.
- Raza raises her hand in the air.
- Elyra says in a calm, confident voice, "I can not paint something until I feel how it
- should feel. I will change everything and do my best to bring that feeling out however I
- can once I start working. I am willing to redo everything and start from scratch if what I
- get does not make me feel what I want."
- Elyra nods her head at Raza.
- Raza says to Elyra in a delicate voice, "Much like our minds can be such a simple canvas
- if we allow the beauty around us to be seen eh?"
- The body of Squire Aereidhna Tiercel, the Firebrand appears in a flash and her soul
- descends to fill it, causing the previously expressionless face to fill with emotion.
- Aereidhna takes a drink from a lapis lazuli vial.
- Elyra grins and nods.
- Elyra flashes Aereidhna a joyous smile.
- Raza says to Elyra in a delicate voice, "I am so proud of you."
- Aereidhna gives Elyra a compassionate hug.
- Aereidhna lowers her head respectfully.
- Aereidhna leaves to the north.
- Elyra blushes furiously.
- Mazel clears his throat in an attempt to gain everyone's attention.
- Elyra tilts her head and listens intently to Mazel.
- Rane tilts his head and listens intently to Mazel.
- Raza tilts her head and listens intently to Mazel.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "I would like to take this opportunity to say a few
- words as the event winds down here."
- Araig takes a healthy swig from a tall mug of iced red tea with muddled blueberries,
- sucking his teeth slightly afterwards.
- A thick droplet of blood red sauce falls across Araig's hand as he pulls a medallion of
- scorpion steak from a skewer, popping it into his mouth with an audible crunch.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "Elyra joined my program straight after joining the
- House, and has grown immensely as an artist."
- Elyra's expression softens as she smiles shyly.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "When she first started, we would spend DAYS discussing
- her works, refining them."
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "Towards the end, our conversations could barely be
- called that. She would catch potential improvements even before I could."
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "She is also quite possibly the most enthusiastic
- artist I have ever seen come through the Virtuosi. She attacked every assignment with a
- fervor few can match."
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "The only reason it took her as long to graduate as it
- did was her drive to make every painting PERFECT."
- The corners of Elyra's mouth turn up as she grins mischievously.
- Laedha smiles softly.
- Raza grins mischievously at Elyra.
- Smirking confidently, Raza and Elyra casually bump fists.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "Which is something I feel all artists should strive
- for. Her blending of emotion and technique is unmatched."
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "For that reason, it is my honour to present this ring
- to Elyra, as a mark of her accomplishments."
- Mazel proudly shows off a black gold graduation ring of artistic acclaim:
- Moulded with careful hands and formed with the utmost detail, this ring encompasses the
- wearer's abilities in their personal form of artistry. Made from gold which is the colour
- of ebony, the inside of the band is smooth and flat to fit upon the finger with comfort.
- The top is slightly domed, crowned with a large, circular azurite. The translucent, azure
- round cut gemstone sparkles with a remarkable clarity. The available light light creates a
- luminous glow yet creating shadows for each program within the Virtuosi. Accenting the
- azurite, a slight dusting of diamond dust rests along the band to add to the lustrous
- gleam.
- Engraved on it are the words:
- Elyra Vorondil
- Painting Path
- 5 Daedalan 755
- Chimble congratulates Elyra with some wild clapping.
- Raza claps her hands together merrily.
- Araig gives up a round of applause.

- Idissa's mouth turns up as her face breaks into a smile.
- Ilira leans forward and places a gentle kiss on Elyra's forehead.
- Raza gives Elyra a compassionate hug.
- Idissa applauds Elyra heartily.
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "And it is my further honour to welcome her to the
- ranks of a full Virtuosi, and grant her the right to wear the title of Master Painter."
- Rane smiles quietly with pride and respect.
- Mokoshie beams broadly at Elyra.
- Keorin claps her hands together merrily.
- Kenara finishes off a tall mug of iced red tea with muddled blueberries.
- "Woot!" Aivilyn shouts excitedly.
- Laedha gives Elyra a wild cheer!
- Idissa claps her hands together merrily.
- Ilira says to Elyra in a warm, musical voice, "Well done Sweetie! Your paintings were
- absolutely bedazzling, I cannot wait to see more of your work in the future!"
- Ilira face lights up with a warm, sunny smile, twin dimples forming at the apexes of both
- cheeks as her eyes twinkle warmly.
- Araig claps his hands together merrily.
- Laedha entwines the fingers of one hand with your fingers, lacing them together.
- Chimble congratulates Elyra with some wild clapping.
- Kenara puts an empty thick-walled mug into a soft leather pack.
- Ilira daintily pinches the material of her skirt between the thumb and index fingers of
- both hands, playfully lifting the hem above her ankles and dipping into an elegantly
- graceful curtsey, the swish of fabric accompanying the delicate movement.
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "Thank you, Mazel."
- Mokoshie leaves, following Ilira to the west.
- You lean forward and plant a kiss on Elyra's cheek.
- Mazel leans forward and places a gentle kiss on Elyra's forehead.
- Elyra blushes furiously.
- Salisa smiles softly.
- Navarr says in a deep, resonant voice, "Congratulations, Elyra."
- Elyra smiles and says in a calm, confident voice, "Thank you again for coming, everyone. I
- really appreciate each one of you being here."
- Araig exclaims to Elyra with a Vashnarian accent, "Congratulations!!"
- Mazel says in a light, airy voice, "That's my piece. You are all welcome to stay and enjoy
- the paintings and food, and further pick her brains to your hearts' content."
