Kerry the Bard, Catherine of Khatadin and the Great Gumba, arrived at the castle of Dark Roger and Sapphire Sue. The trio was greeted with much fanfare and heraldry.
After the usual pleasantries were exchanged, libations were broken out and consumption began, for this was the feast of Passing.

Someone was missing, The Red Prince, Otter Queen and Otter Princess, great disappointment fell upon the Gumbas brow, for it had been to long since the two great warriors had seen, or even spoken to each other.
Vanity and Machismo, two words that can destroy cultures and civilizations.

Karyne, the sister of Kerry the Bard and Catherine of Khatadin, also was in attendance, along with her daughter, The Stable Princess, Danyella, the only woman who can ride the fabled winged horse.

The wine was poured and all sat around the sacred table, Roger extol of the great exodus of his people and how they ate unleavened bread and bitter herbs. He also spoke of his leaders and how they helped calm the people.
The Gumba was even honored by being able to read part of the tale of the exodus, a great and noble deed.

When part of the story was done, Sapphire Sue had dinner served: Soup with large round balls of bread, Boiled eggs, Bitter herbs, Green leafy things and large amounts of LAMB, succulent, tender, moist, LAMB. Food of the gods.
Roger had outdone himself this time, the feast was magnificent.

After the meal, the last part of the story was told, this is as important as the feast itself, one must remember what once was, in order not to make the same mistakes as his forefathers. It is just like the fire of remberance.

Then came the desserts, yuuummmyyyy, dark, rich, decadent chocolate truffle, and an orange, macaroon tort, served with the sweetest wine.

All was well, for the Gumba and his Bard were going to see The Red Prince on the morrow.

So Sayeth the Great White Sage
