An Invitation to the French Ambassador's Ball
Subject: The Ambassadors Ball
Where: The French Embassy
Who: Léon Belmont, the French Ambassador to the English court
Warnings: none as yet
Open to: All (all players may attend either as invited guests of the ambassador, as servants or guests of those invited, as staff, or as gate-crashers.)

The ballroom of the Embassy was already growing busy, and when Citizen Belmont paused for a moment besides one of the large windows, he could see yet more carriages pulling up outside, wreathed in the mist blowing in from the river.

The quartet had been playing now for a good half an hour, new French tunes as well as those the English favoured. His staff was busy handing out good French wine, and then refilling those glasses when they were drained.

It was going to be a good evening, and not only in the eyes of the party-goers. With some of England’s most prominent aristos on the guest list, and some than some newly arrived French nationals, tonight would be a night of information gathering, of sizing up the opposition, and perhaps even ensuring some of those French escapees were returned to face justice.

	Amandine stifled a laugh. "Dampens to be sure! I have counted but three occasions where I have not ended the day like a drowned rat. It increases the workload for the maids threefold.." (Replies frozen) (Parent) (Thread)

	Elisamarie frowned again, although not so pronounced this time. "I cannot see how that can considered useful work - sending you out in the rain and then doubling the washing!" She tutted. "I miss the sun. It is such a pleasure to work in the sunshine. I hardly find myself able to leave the embassy with the weather as it is." (Replies frozen) (Parent) (Thread)

	"The sunshine is the epitome of pleasure. I now understand the English's personalities, so grouchy and mundane. Always gloomy and overcast like their skies..." she was glad to have someone to complain to and sipped her drink merrily. (Replies frozen) (Parent)
