	Princess Anne arrived yesterday. Captain Candace is denied to be in town but nobody believes that. And there's a new Saurian in town named Lilya who arrived yesterday. There is some debate about how good we are at being Subtle. Perhaps not, but sometimes we’re Sneaky!		Princess Anne arrived yesterday. Captain Candace is denied to be in town but nobody believes that. And there's a new Saurian in town named Lilya who arrived yesterday. There is some debate about how good we are at being Subtle. Perhaps not, but sometimes we’re Sneaky!

	We go to the place where Richard is staying, to go see if we can suss him out. “The Pig in the Top Hat” is the name of the inn– as we recall, the Top Hats were Princess Anne’s faction. (Princess ~~Wendy’s~~ faction were the Roses.) We try to see him, giving our name to the person at the door who stops us. He’s in a meeting at present, but we can wait if we want. We decide to stay, to see if we can meet with him (and see who he’s meeting with– see! Subtle!). Princess Anne is also staying at the Pig in the Top Hat, as it turns out. As we wait, Gale checks the scoreboard– Anne is up to 2! Aha!

	[[Vidan]] goes to talk to Angelina, the priest of Navere in [[Vani]]. With only one fortune success, Angelina has nothing for him. Each of the choices will have consequences, but she doesn’t have strong opinions as to which is noticeably better. Her sense of the consequences is not divinely inspired, but is from living there. Going back to Lord ([[Viktor]]) Mikaeli would be a pretty strong snub to the ([[Leopold]]) Horenths– going back to a previous consort after you’ve left them would indicate that the one(s) in between were distinctly substandard.

	Those consequences would be more significant once [[Isabella]] is back from Middlesea, as she’s just a better Head of House than Leopold. Angelina has no sense of why [[Julia]] is considering [[Pyotr]], but she clearly is. The [[Saurian]]s are a plausible power bloc, but they’ve never been part of the politics of the city. It’s also not clear why Pyotr is so interested in the position. He’s more competent than she had given him credit for, but he’s not the best politician.

	Richard is… exciting. And a sign that Julia is looking to exert Vani’s influence more broadly than it has been in recent years. That’s not necessarily bad, but it’s a thing you’d want to keep an eye on. Vidan is interested in increasing inter-Zone/Nation entanglements against the Breaker and his forces; Angelina is clear that Richard is increasing entanglements, but how much that’s against the Breaker is not clear… Mikeli is another for entanglements, but less likely to focus on opposing the Breaker. Isabella, once returned, might be more interested in opposing the Breaker, or might be more interested in rebuilding, it’s hard to say.		Richard is… exciting.

	Angelina asks for a briefing on the party, which Vidan gives. She suggests investigating the saurian/slith might be a way of finding info / getting dirt on Pyotr. Her impression was that Fyodor (the disguised slith) was not particularly connected to Pyotr, as he was newly arrived, but it’s unclear what credentials he offered.

	Scout goes to the Lord’s House to do some research into what happened after the War of the Lord and Lady ended. It looks like most of the War tension evaporated pretty quickly. The Lord and the Lady were still definitely the most important political figures in the world after that. At least for the next 10-15 years, the alliances they made stayed intact. There were definitely still camps– the Lord’s stuff and the Lady’s stuff were managed separately. After that, they were mostly just in charge of Orange and Blue, respectively. They had never been officially in charge of the other Zones, but the Lord had effectively been King of Orange, and that didn’t seem to have fallen apart in his lifetime. The city states still existed, but he was effectively the head of the League of City States, and she was effectively the Archmage of Blue. There was no annual celebration of the formal peace that was made, and there was definitely treading lightly for a while, to make sure that tensions were eased. Scout thinks it’s similar to how Green is ruled– there’s not necessarily active hostilities, but they have different opinions on how things should be run. So rivals more than enemies. The peace was apparently signed just outside the [[Plains of Geddon]]. (Aiyeee!, thinks Scout.)

	[[Gale]] goes out looking for potential Adventure Dates appropriate for a pirate and a princeling. There are definitely discussions about pirates. Although the pirates are mostly based in the Inland Sea, and they mostly don’t have bases in Orange. There are some pirates in town, from the Dolphin, so just one crew. They don’t talk about what they’re doing here though. And then she runs into [[Giaconni]], who she met in [[Rinyan]] (in [[To the Heart]]). He’s interested in talking to [[Stella]], saying her uncle says to talk to Tybalt.		[[Gale]] goes out looking for potential Adventure Dates appropriate for a pirate and a princeling.
