Ahh, I love masquerades~ And given who our host is, I expect this will be quite the party. Grelle, would you care to accompany me? If you are not otherwise occupied, of course.

And Miss Sheska, Miss 4 - if you are planning to attend and need assistance with costumes, don't hesitate to ask.

Time to get to planning!

It's a black gown with a sort of subtle,shimmery sparkle to it, if that helps. I'm rather excited about this whole thing, to be honest. I've never been to a costume ball before!

Oh, there are stories about them? They didn't in my world, but I remembered seeing a picture in one of the books laying out in a young-adult section of the library. I just didn't stop to read it - I wish I had!

They're great fun! A favourite of mine.

There are - the gorgons were said to be the protectors of ancient oracles, and Medusa was their queen.

I hope so! Is there any particular etiquette I should be aware of? I would hate to offend anyone.

Oh! I'm certainly no queen, but I suppose that's part of what the holiday is about, not being yourself. Gorgons - a strange word - is that the race of creatures?

Nothing out of the usual for this one, I think - though if someone wishes to hide their identity with their mask, it is polite not to press them on it.

A bit, yes - costumes can be a sort of ideal self, I find. And yes, that was the race. Part woman, part snake.
