Okie,well then,there are no 'actual rules',like most RP's do,'cept be clear in your writing. :)Which,I'm sure everyone can do. ;D
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The cool,autum breeze,bathed between Meridell's almost likely translucent sun,illuminating the castle with a colorful rainbow upon it's grainy walls.And there Prince Jeran Borodere lay in the soft graze,bathing upon the fresh new season of autum,glad he wasn't doing any paperwork,and finally adjusting to peace time after war.
Jeran now had time to think,which was good...in a sense.But how could it be bad?Well.....there's always that thought that crosses his mind every now and then,like......what if there was another war?
Yes,I know,you know,they know,the meepits know. ;DMeridell's history chapter is closed....Neopia has moved on to wars and events that take place in the Lost Desert,awaiting the Sloth wars to come back,Mystery Island,etc.
All in all.....what most Neopians beleive is it's never gonna happen.No one knows exactly what happened to Kass.Some say the Three got rid of him.Other's say Darigin was the leader of the Three,but a vast majority of the Meridellians' know and beleive that Jeran has all the answers to that question....
Oh but he dosn't.He truthfully,dosn't exactly know where he is right now,wether it's as obvious as staring at Sloth in an afro.....(that would just be creepy,now wouldn't it?)
Jeran continue to lay in the soft green grass,occasionally stretching around,playfully yawning,when finally Lisha called him from the third floor window of Meridell Castle.
"Jeran!!Skarl wants you!!There's a banquet next week,you have to be prepared a week ahead of time!!C'mon!!"
Jeran lazily sat up,and went to the directed spot Lisha had called him to.

______________________________________________________________________
Lunelupe was walking around meridell, sure he had wings but he also had legs and quite enjoyed using them from time to time. Of course being a lupe and having wings could mean only one of two things. He was either a faerie lupe, or a darigan one. I suppose he could be a mix as well but that's not quite working out when I picture it in my head. Anyway, the fact is he's also got purple fur and black claws so you can figure it out for yourself from there.
Despite the peace he kept his weapons on him at all times. It was like his motto or something "Always carry a weapon. You never know what will happen." ironically carrying a weapon was sometimes a scource of trouble. While most had become quite settled in with the alliance between the Citadell and Meridell, there were still sceptics who weren't convinced. Some of whom were meridell guards. Two of whom stood before him right now.
"What are you doing with those swords?"
"Err, hmm, carrying them perhaps? Oh great it's you two again, do we REALLY have to have this conversation everytime I come down for a stroll?"
"We won't if you stop bringing those blades with you."
"Well then maybe I shouldn't allow you to bring your weapons with you next time you come visit the Citadell."
"You can't stop us."
"Yes I can. So long as I'm on duty I can confiscate them if I see you walking around with them."
"But we're Meridellian guards!"
"And I'm a guard of the Citadell!" Lunelupe took a deep breath to calm himself. He knew where this was going from experience. "Listen, we are at peace. We are not fighting eachother anymore. But I DO have the right to defend myself against anything that jumps out of the bush at me. This is better done with weapons. Now may I PLEASE pass and get to the market?"

OOC:The picture of sloth with an afro is coming back...slowly but surely....achchchc,the light!!It burns!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Lunelupe entered the market place,still taking deep,rich breaths of Meridell's lush smelling farm pickup,he spotted probably one of the most unordinary sights he'd ever see....
Sir Jeran Borodere....standing plain in sight,in the middle of the market place....and it was as if no one even saw him.He didn't exactly blend in complteley,what with the sword in his scabbard,neatly placed on his belt,which seemed obviously a bit too big for his thin waist.Golden/auburn eyes studdied an aisha maiden next to him,to short to be his girlfried,holding his hand though,smiling through and through when somone waved at her,nobody waved at Jeran...oddly enough.Now Lunelupe wished he could go back through the gates and drag Prince Jeran along with him and yell "Look!!See!!He carries weapons too!!Smart one!!"
While thinking of this,(and not realizing he was in plain public,almost laughing his head off),Jeran had managed to head toward the castle,along with the aisha maiden.Lunelupe shoved the thought away and continued towards the castle...

((please don't use my character(s)  and lunelupe dosen't have any reason to be going to the castle at this time. Not until he's actually completed his quest to the market place anyway and some random event happens that gives him a reason to head off in that direction like say... uhh.. hmm.. err... duhh.. eeeuuuhh... aahhh... mm... eeeeehh... ummm.. I'm running out of thinking sonds here and no ideas are comming. Ah well, I'll think of something. Maybe there is and invasion or what not. I think I'll bring those two guards back into the picture later on too.. yea.. but not yet )) Now what the heck was Jeran doing here? He wondered silently to himself as he walked into the market place and stopped at a farmer's trolley which was covered in fruits and vegetables. He picked up a couple of potatoes and gave them a whiff. They we're quite fresh. Just picked thatmorning most likely. "One moment." he said as he dug into his pockets to withdraw a few neopoints. "There we go. Have a nice day." he said as he payed the farmer and walked off with the produce in a bag. ((err... yea.. that's all I've got right now...)) |

((Oopsies,sorry.See,the way I usually did RP,was that we'd both basically have each other's characters;to sum it up;no one really owned a character.Heck,I couldn't exactly say I owned Jeran at all.Wish I could....><))
Jeran and the aisha maiden took a turn into the castle, the aisha maiden seemingly pulling Jeran by the arm,his head decking down over the ground."Lisha,what on earth do you think your doing?!"Jeran yelled once they were out of crowd's sight.Lisha sighed,and held up the bag of Neopoints she had."Did you honestly forget the last time we stood out there in public....you nearly got killed....by FANGIRLS!!",Lisha was now screaming,though,surprisingly,no peasants or farmers drawled their attention away from what they were doing.Jeran burried his head in his hands,but Lisha shrugged the gesture off."Look,all I'm saying is,you might...want to borrow these."Lisha handed Jeran the neopoints.Jeran stared blankly at her."What on earth do you mean?!"Jeran screeched,though his voice was still a whisper."Lisha,that's your hard earned pay,if your actually expecting me to buy,peice by peice,my own outfit for the banquet,you have GOT to be kidding me.Lisha;Skarl has servants that can take care of all that!!.......right?"
Jeran had hesitated too long for an answer.Lisha sighed inwardly and then turned towards her bewildered brother.So he was going to have to buy,no not make,but buy his own 'prince outfit' for the 'stupid banquet';so what?!Isn't that what normal Neopets do?!Lisha finally spoke after long moments of silence.
"Jeran,all the servants and maids had mostly escaped for refuge after the war.They were unemployed then since all the King really cared about besides paying them what little they ever got was war and that dimunitve dancer.Look,all,I'm saying is,some of them even died.Does THIS come to the conclusion that there are no more servants,few and barely if any,is that enough?!"
Lisha had spit a couple dabs of saliva in Jeran's face,which she tended to do in a rant,and then settled down,and without realizing,had caught the attention of an uninvited visitor from the market place....
((...ahem....*cough*,that's your cue!!XD))

((LOL! Ok, I can take a hint XD))
*lunelupe randomly finds himself in the castle* *then apparently lisha and jeran randomly find themselves back in the market place* ... *or maybe the pesants from the market place suddenly found themselves in the castle?* *Lunelupe randomly finds himself in the crowd where Jeran and Lisha stand* There we go, now it dosen't matter where the are and I've cleared that up in my mind...
Lunelupe looked up from his activities at the small aisha arguing/ranting to Jeran. He, after some thought, recognized her as Lisha, Jeran's young sister. Then a thought struck him. But perhaps it wasn't the best time to, a good oppertunity perhaps, but not the best timing for Jeran. Ah well, he could at least say hello. On the other hand he really shouldn't get into other people's buisness. He thought about it so carefully that he didn't notice he had begun to stare stupidly at the pair as if he was star struck.
He would have to face those guards again on his way back, perhaps if he could get a note or a good word from Jeran he wouldn't have to worry about them anymore, but Jeran did look rather busy...
It this odd deep thought stance he held he seemed to stick out even more so than usuall in the crowd. Perhaps it was to conflicting thoughts beyond 'what should dinner be' that played across his mind and puppeteered his face that was so rarely seen among the busy shopping crowds that came through here always moving, and of course the whole darigan outfit didn't help either.

((Lol,nice.XD))
Jeran turned to their unwanted guest.WHAT,in the name of Meridell's flag is this....Darigan doing here?!Especially right after a war between the rivalring countries!Especially while Jeran was engrossed in a very....(well,you couldn't exactly call it interesting).....loud arguement with his sister.Loud was a better way of putting it.
Jeran stiffened around the guest,examining Lunelupe closely.The Darigan looked of guard rank from the Citadel,and the expression that played upon his face seemed to exactly summarize what he was thinking.Jeran could only try to sputter at first,but then speak.
"Ello,there,Sir Jeran Borodere,....I'm,pretty you know me from sight..."

"Hmm?" said Lunelupe as the glazed look in his eyes vannished and he looked up, apparently comming back to his senses. He'd been so busy with his thoughts he hadn't noticed Jeran had walked up to him. "Oh, sorry Sir, err.. You're Highness err..." and just like that it occured to him that he didn't know what title to call him. But none the less he managed to recompose himself. "I'm sorry Sir." he continued comming to a decision on a proper title. He assumed he would be corrected if he made a poor choice. "I wasn't quite paying attention and I missed what you said." He'd stood straight up at respectful attention. He even had put a paw up in salute without noticing which now slowly returned to his side. It had been an automatic trained reaction. But was also a true sign of acknowledgement to status, of respect, and a mark that he was a soldier. edit:(( AH HA! I've got it! There is a market like place INSIDE the castle in that wide open front square area! That's where they are! ... Ok, so chances are that Meridell Castle actually has a market there is slim, but the way TNT has it set up on the map it more or less makes sense  ) |

Jeran nodded in approval to Lunelupe's reaction.The lupe-knight then turned to his sister,the bag of 1,000,000 NP's still in his hand.Jeran was hoping LuneLupe wasn't like some of the many Darigani soldiers....that seemingly run off with other Meridellian's money.Heck,this was 1 mil. NP's.That's alot of money!!((no,derh.XD))
Jeran thanked his sister,then faced Lunelupe once more."So what brings you to these parts,Darigan?",Jeran asked,trying not to scare the lupe,or sound as if he had something against the Darigan.Jeran felt Lisha had been holding back a few SLIGHT details about their upcoming 'banquet'.He winced at the thought,then beamed back to Lunelupe,waiting for an answer.

"My name is Lunelupe Sir. I'm just here for some shopping." he indicated the bag of potatoes, "The produce here is a right deal better than at the Citadel. We haven't quite got what you could call good farm land there Sir. uhh.. Did you need something Sir?" this last question came out of curiosity as to why he would want to speak with him. He could think of plenty of reasons why he would like to speak to Jeran, but couldn't think of any reason why it would go the other way around.

Jeran eyed the lupe from head to toe.Interesting fellow....no suspiciouns here,Jeran thought silently to himself."Oh,....oh,no,lad nothing.Carry on,carry on with,whatever it is you were doing."Jeran replied absent mindedly,not sticking to the fact that Lunelupe had just told him what he was doing.When he faced Lisha yet again,she was gone.Jeran managed to find her running off,arms out stretched to her friends by the rubbish dump.More,silly little schemes of theirs.T_T
Jeran headed off towards the more 'formal' parts of the Meridell market place.Hey,it wasn't ALL junk and rotten fruits1!Jeran made a turn into a nice looking dress parlour and was releived to find that the peophin shop keeper who could usually be seen sweeping and whistling merrily outside the shop door,was gone.Jeran continued further in the shop,shutting the door behind him and putting up the sighn."Out to lunch"

Lunelupe raised his eyebrow questioningly as Jeran walked away. Maybe absent mindedness was contagious today? Ah well, now what else did he need?
He turned back to his usual routine, all thoughts of guards and problems with swords slipped away. "Hmm.. maybe some pork would be good tonight."
And so he continued stopping here and there for odds and ends until he was satisfied he would have enough to last him and began his walk home taking the occasional shortcut by wing.

Jeran stepped here and there through the shop,occasionally eyeing an interesting prince suit or top.Leather pants and garments adorned the walls.Jeran stared in awe.For a Meridell market place shop,it was pretty fancy.

((Yup))
And so on he went hopping merilly over the bushy green trees. Rainbows were in the sky clear blue sunny sky and little birds chirrped and chittered and all the world was at peace.
Aww, what a perfect world eh?
Lunelupe flies to the cittadel. He goes home. He puts purchased items away. He then sits down and pats his blue doglefox and thinks about what a horribly pathetic post this is.
Yup... ..
....
Guess that sums it up...
... yup....
....
Please don't take the sunchine happiness part to seriously...

((Looooool.XDDI'm not busy....that much....anymore...*looks to the right and sees a pile of books that need to be packed*....arggggg))
Jeran eventually left the formal dress store after 3 hours of shopping.Now who says girl's take their time at a store.3 HOURS!!((compared to how long I've shopped,that is an understatement.XD))
He looked for his sister,around the market place,but surprisingly,found no one.Everyone had seemed to vanish,and the streets practically housed rolling tumble weeds.*scaryyyyyyyy*Jeran carried the pile of clean,leather and gold trimmed garments over to the entrance of the castle,which,despite the fact that no one was really around,seemd to be loaded with guards.Now who was inside the castle?....
When Jeran pushed open the heavy oak doors,there stood Lord Darigan himself,bent over a pile of scattered papers that seemed like invitations from Jeran's position at the entry way.They were,it so turns out.Skarl was standed near Darigan,in a nervous position,almost resisting the urge to summon his top knights to slay the 'Darigan menace'.
Jeran set the pile of new clothing down,and walked up to a draik guard."What's going on?",the lupe knight asked,sort of on the vergance of being befuddled.
The Draik simply turned to face Jeran with a casual expression on his face."Oh,not much,the Darigan leaders are meeting yet again with his majesty and his people."
Jeran stared blankly at the Draik guard,had his ears deceived him?He knew Lisha had been sure enough,hiding something about this short notice banquet.Jeran perked up at the sound of Lord Darigan himself adressing his name."Ah,Sir Jeran Borodere,a pleasure to meet your acquatance."Darigan then,bowed low,to Jeran,signaling for Jeran to do the same to him.They both met at the top above the ground,towering over most of the Draik gaurds.
"I do sincerely wish I could stay and chat,but I must alert my people back home of our Day of Giving Celebration."
How had Jeran forgot......the Day of Giving was just around the corner.Darigan turned to leave the castle,formally escorted by his own gaurds,and a few draik guards scurrying after.
