The old residents of HVlandia watched as Anna ran around the corner, twirling and loudly humming a song from the opening of some old cartoon—Wakfu, if she recalled correctly. Dimka followed behind her, looking incredibly pleased.
- Well? Did it work? - inquired Vesperlin, who had appeared out of nowhere.
- Everything is wonderful! - the vampire replied, beaming with happiness, - And who are you and how did you get here?
- Just passing by, - Vesperlin said evasively.
- It's time for us to go, Anna, - Dimka said. - And...
- We'll see you out, we're headed the same way, - King Rev offered.
The cheerful company returned to the old house. The portal was only faintly visible as dimly glowing lines, but the atmosphere seemed to have become even more lavish and bright. Lord Mort, grumbling something about the follies of wretched mortals and the light that was offensive to any decent Necromancer, went to find a darker corner. The others settled in the hall. Sesame and Vesperlin chatted about girly things, sipping martinis. King Arandor played cards with Sir Ple-Sen Abyss and Vise the Black, glancing resentfully at the Morning Smith and Silver the Duelist, who were talking to each other and to the Dragon-Cat in raised voices; the latter had found a long colorful scarf somewhere and was now ostentatiously arranging it around her neck. The Wooden Cop was inspiredly mixing some new, particularly aromatic blend of tea, while Morning frustratedly rubbed his hand, which had been knocked by the Cop when he tried to take a cup prematurely. Veg-Tam and Neyra the Dragon were engrossed in conversation off to the side.
King Rev approached Anna and Dimka.
- Thank you for inviting us. We think we'll stay.
- Oh, that's magnificent, - the elf replied, - will you be living here?
- Yes, we'll stay in the old city. Perhaps we'll venture into the center, but you won't notice us.
- We will certainly come and visit you, - the vampire assured, - and... Thank you for the wonderful time.
- Thank you. We had a great time remembering the good old days, - the king smiled.
Then Rev went over to those playing cards, while Anna and Dimka quietly slipped out of the house, which had become lively and cozy, discussing something on their way...
Well then, the final contest. Send me a
ring. You know, that round little thing that goes on a finger. It can be separate, or worn on someone's hand, but if it's the latter, please provide a close-up of the hand, and the fewer other body parts, the better. The main focus of the image should be the ring itself, specifically a ring as a piece of jewelry suitable for humans/humanoids. You have
48 hours.
