pun_king | The Kingdom of Daventry; Tuesday [05/07] - Day TWO of the Tournament of Knights!

Good morning! It's another beautiful day in Daventry, a day where the brilliant color of the sunrise across the sky is as rich and colorful as the trees that spread across the valley. Hopefully, no one else had their beds mysteriously stolen in the middle of the night! It's a big day for our small cadre of Hopeful Knights--the bold and braggadocios ~Whisper~, the small and scheming Manny, big and brash Acorn, mysterious and menacing Achaka, and, of course, Graham, who was honestly just happy to be there--as they seek out their true test of worth to be considered for the Daventry Guard: the eye of a hideous beast! Will they be able to obtain such a prize by the deadline? Only time will tell, and they'll likely be hard at work accomplishing their goal!

As for everyone else? Well, you've got a day of either helping, hindering, or just enjoying Daventry at this time of year! Be cautious, though! With the bridges out, there's plenty of wetzel wolves in a frenzy around the woods, unable to migrate to Serenia as they would like to, and, with the bridges out, travel around the realm is a bit restricted, too. It doesn't help that even the Fantastical Floating Island, one of Daventry's top billed tourist attractions, is closed for the day in preparation for one of the events tomorrow! But there's still good friends, beautiful vistas, and fun to be had in the Kingdom of Daventry.

Adventure is, after all, where you find it!

[[ and, of course, for all those in Daventry with him, NFB for distance, and with the usual OCD! ]]

"Hey," Graham said, doing his best to greet Arden with his usual smile, hoping his nerves didn't leak into it too much. "Pretty okay, I guess. It's hard to really sleep with so much to look forward to for the day, you know?"

He hoped she knew, he wasn't sure he could really explain it, but he poked at his eggs with a fork before looking up again and tilting his head.

"And you? Did you sleep well? I'm sorry we haven't had much time to spend together, but I knew I'd be pretty busy. Are you enjoying Daventry so far?"

"We also knew you'd be busy, so we're happy to see you when we can, and just as happy to do our own thing when we can't," Arden said firmly. "So no apologies. We're here to support you."

And then she gave him a soft smile. "Though if I'd known you were awake, I would have sent the squirrels to go bother you with radio this morning."

"They're here?" asked Graham, brows lifting in surprise, and then he had to laugh. "What about Leroy? If Leroy's here, I gotta talk to him! I've been trying to hook him up with a friend of mine from home for ages! I can't believe they really followed you here! And made you still do radio! But I guess they also go on the vacations, some of them anyway, so maybe it really isn't all that strange."

"Maybe they'll stick around until Friday," Arden said. "Though I don't know if you'll have time to do radio after you win."

She leaned over and offered him a one-armed side hug, more of a pull into her side. "Which you will," she murmured.
