QUEEN VI ALMASA TRRROL CELEBRATION SAVED!
(and a warm welcome back to Tavern Manager Cindy!)
DISASTER STRIKES AS QUEEN MUST TRAVEL TO DISTANT LAND!
KING BLESSES QUEEN AS SHE VISITS ILL SISTER!
ALL KALAHARI CARRIES ON BRAVELY!

Disaster was turned to joy and hopeful celebration in Kalahari Kingdom when word was received that our gallant Queen had to travel to comfort her sister in a far-off land. How like the beloved monarch to care for the sick instead of enjoying her own celebration! The King delivered the news to a stunned crowd at the Delicious Syrup Tavern.


How great was her trust in her Kalahari subjects, and her beloved husband the King, that they would be able to carry on in her absence. And so the Kalahari team: Lady Louise Kingbe, Kahya dara, Tavern Manager Cindy, Prophetess Chippi, and Minister Afraa joined forces to comfort the King, honor the Queen, and welcome the residents and guests of Kalahari.

And the guests came from far and wide, initially to celebrate the Queen's return, (and Tavern Manager Cindy's), but stayed to watch in awe the fireworks, accept the gifts of the Kingbe family, hear the prophecy of Prophetess Chippi, enjoy the famed Kalahari dance under the direction of Kahya dara, feast on the elegant menu of Cindy, and dance the night away.

Anne and Bree Langtry, our old and dear friends were there. The lovely and talented Lexia Moonstone, leader of the Lost Jungle of the Maya contingent and her faithful companion the "cute" kukua. Master Franco Carfield, the renowned slave trainer, and the powerful Sir Wolf, all graced us with their presence, as did Darilust, Lila, and Kara Exile. Lexi even found some time to discuss trade with the multitalented Cindy, and with the expected support of Minister Magdy, and slave Abu, the King encouraged such trade.

Princess Nathalie, the King's niece, on her own mission of mercy, later joined the celebration, and the faithful slave Abu, after a full day's work on the Farm, added his "Flame Dance" talents to the party ahahaha.

Also, unfortunately delayed by affairs of state, and the plots and spies of the Western imperialists, the renowned statesman, the noted raconteur, the famed gourmand, and the fabled lover, Emir Hussein al Rachid of Kuwar, the "Merciful," the "Lion of the Desert." weary from signing death sentences for Kuwari traitors (much of the population ahahaha), made the perilous journey from Kuwar to honor the Queen, and pay his respects to the King. Of course he was welcomed with open arms by his separated wife Afraa, and served one of Cindy's delicious lobster dishes by the lovely and talented Palace Slave dara.


Also there, adding sophisticated questions, and sharing the wisdom of her extensive travels with the Emir and the Minister, was the lovely Elyssa Kalaratri, who should soon be joining the Kingdom. And kukua and the lovely slave Sasa provided enticing entertainment as they danced for the pleasure of the rotund ruler.

The celebration proper began after the King's announcement, with gift giving from Lady Louise, on behalf of the Kingbe family. Each person enjoyed the amusing, yet personal gifts which added to the celebration.


Louise began the fireworks display with a "red flare," a sign of warmth, to accompany the Queen of her journey of solace.


Immediately, another flare was launched, green for the hopes and prayers that journey with the Queen, and join her to her beloved subjects.


The midnight setting for the celebration enhanced the intricate fireworks, as the "bubbles of joy" followed, floating to the heavens with the personal wishes of all who gathered,





while on the ground, wild celebrations erupted, as the airy bubbles seemed to lift everyone's spirits.


Many individual moments were memorable. Perhaps the most meaningful came from the utterance of the Kalahari Prophetess Chippi, who rose up, danced a tantrum, and uttered the following prophesy:

"O, hear the stars speak....
For thus saith the Lord God of Israel unto me;
Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.
And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.
Then took I the cup at the Lord's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the Lord had sent me:
there is only one God and Hassan is Her prophet. the Land is safe and Our Queen is home, rejoice!"

Visibly awed, all fell silent, until the sound of the incessant Arab beat began, and Kahya dara started the famed "Kalahari Flame Dance," though unfortunately this encouraged the King to display his errr "unique" style of the dance. Here you see Kahya dara, Prophetess Chippi, and Minister Afraa shudder in fear at this full moon apparition.


Princess Nathalie enjoyed herself, as she looked on at the Royal Dance Spectacle (ahaha), with sexy Cindy distracting the audience away from the King's acrobatic lurching.


Viewing the King's valiant efforts, all joined in jubilant dancing, as DJ Chippi took requests.





kukua took a leading role, teaching the "Mayan Dance Line" to Lexi, Sasa, and Afraa


Finally, the weary guests feasted, danced, and delighted to the maximum, left the party, but unfortunately most missed the visit of the sexy god and featured player on the world stage, Emir Hussein al Rachid of Kuwar. While dara served, Sasa and kukua danced, and Elyssa conversed, Afraa beamed in the presence of her Beloved. (The rest is censored in the interests of public morality.) AHAHAHAHA



AND ALL SEND BEST WISHES TO QUEEN VI ALMASA TRROL,
AND WISH HER A SPEEDY RETURN!

TAVERN MANAGER CINDY RETURNS TO THE GREAT JOY OF ALL IN KALAHARI!
BABY HASSAM HAS GROWN IN SIZE AND BEAUTY!
KING DELIGHTED, DESSERT TRAY BURSTING, MINISTER AFRAA DROOLS!


Just two days ago, several of the "regulars" at the Delicious Syrup Tavern were sitting at the table, sadly wondering what had happened to their beloved Tavern Manager Cindy, and her darling baby Hassam. As part of their tradition of sadness, one place at table was left unoccupied, in memory of their dear friend Cindy. Slave Abu in particular missed his colleague whose brilliant menus made great use of the Farm produce.


And then, almost miraculously, Cindy returned with the adorable baby Hassam! Kalaharians rushed to welcome Cindy home, and listened to her story of a mysterious journey, and a lengthy illness with mouths hanging open. But the overwhelming emotion was one of happiness that Cindy had returned home to the place she belongs. The King's strong hug of the red-haired beauty was warm enough to make Sultan Suleyman of Topkapi green with envy! ahahaha!!!


Finally, the Tavern had been restored to its perfect state. We must not forget the excellent efforts of dara, Abu, and Nada, who were able to keep the Tavern menu alive during Cindy's absence, and Afraa's sweet tooth satisfied. But now Cindy is back and we celebrate!

We also are able to welcome even more visitors than before. Here we see the usual suspects in Kalahari welcoming the visitor Tink, who showed some wonderful and erotic dance moves that the King himself praised highly. (What? You are surprised the King noticed? ahahaha)

GYPSY SLAVE CHIPPI NOT A THIEF BUT A LIAR!
GODDESS ALLEGRA INFORMS MINISTER AFRAA OF TREASURE'S ORIGIN!
NERVOUS SLAVE CHIPPI LIED IN SHAME TO THE KING!


Divine beauty Allegra, Goddess of Joy and Light, descended to the Kingdom to inform the mortals here that we had misunderstood slave Chippi's bad behavior.

Chippi WAS guilty, but of nervous lying, a medical condition, rather than the far more serious crime of theft, where only the King's compassion saved her from her hand being cut off! Instead, the guilty slave was hanged from the Punishment Tree as a warning against bad behavior in the Kingdom.


What actually had happened is that the Goddess had rewarded her belly dancer Chippi with two golden coins: one Chippi gave to charity, and the other she used to take with herself to the desert, as the Goddess released her to look for her sister Eman. It was this coin that confused the situation.


Minister Afraa passed that information on to the King and Queen, delighted that their little brat slave is deeply loyal to them both. In fact, Chippi loved being the trusted slave of Queen Vi, and will most sincerely display her service at the Welcome Celebration next Wednesday.

MEDIEVAL MURMURS


A delightful visitor from the legendary Kingdom of Sand, Elyssa Kalaratri, sailed into Kalahari Harbor, explored the Kingdom, and now is looking for a permanent home in Kalahari. All in Kalahari are called to welcome this charming new guest of the Kingdom.


Another dashing visitor came to Kalahari from the fabled Kingdom of It-a-ly. Mysteriously named Edoctor, he was vague about his origins, but clearly was interested in further exploration in Kalahari.

GYPSY SLAVE CHIPPI EXPOSED AS A THIEF!
GODDESS KATE WESTIN INFORMS THE KING OF STOLEN TREASURE!
KING HASSAN SHOWS MERCY, DOES NOT CHOP OFF THIEF'S HAND!
DECEIVER HUNG FROM THE PUNISHMENT TREE!

The Gypsy Chippi brought shame to the Kingdom, and the Palace itself today.

Goddess Kate Westin appeared in the Kingdom, and requested to see the King, and the slave Chippi. Our monarch welcomed the distinguished visitor with his customary gracious hospitality, and while Minister Afraa hosted tea for the King and the Goddess, slave dara went to bring the leashed Chippi to the Ministry building.


Goddess Kate then came out with the shocking news: slave Chippi had stolen some treasure from her Mistress, and fled to the Kingdom with forged documents! Four pairs of accusatory eyes (King's, Goddess', Minister's, dara's) looked at the slave who came up with numerous explanations, and then broke down and admitted the theft, and returned a large gold coin, which was most, but not all, of the treasure stolen.


The King contained his fury at these revelations, and after conferring with Minister Afraa, and restoring the coin, with some additional coinage, to the Goddess, decreed that the Gypsy thief be hung from the punishment tree, and that all citizens (though not slaves) are to spit upon her to humiliate her, and teach her never to steal again.

The Queen arrived, and added her voice of disappointment to the chorus of disapproval. All agreed that Chippi must now be kept under close supervision, a burden which will fall mainly on Palace Slave dara.

The King and Queen visited the Ministry building to inform Minister Afraa about the possibilities for the jubilant celebration planned to welcome Queen Vi back to the Kingdom, and the general outline was put in place.

The King has also announced that a new slave, named Saran, will be assigned to the Mine to help Slave Abu. The Chronicles reports this happy news, as slave Abu has been such a stalwart in keeping the Mine and Farm going, under the supervision of Minister Magdy.
