Nol cracked his fingers and grinned at the cheese platter that the servant placed on the table before them. “Now this is one Llayan idea I agree with.”

Nimay grinned and nodded in agreement.

Lynnlita and Amyrallyn beamed with local pride. “Cheese platters are only common in the mountains,” Amyrallyn explained, “Even here it’s often too warm, and a lot of the cheeses melt into a creamy puddle that begins to smell dreadful after a day or two.”

The younger princess made a face as she picked up one of the dry, brittle Llayan crackers and a knife to cut her cheese with. “When the princesses were young, Amyrallyn demanded a round of camembert in Kilyad for her birthday, in the middle of Summer.”

Amyrallyn gasped and smacked her younger sister with the back of her hand. “Do not tell this story, Lynnlita!”

“Lynnlita will tell whatever stories she wishes,” the princess said primly, spreading the cheese smoothly over her cracker. “This is camembert here,” she continued in the face of her objecting sister, “It comes in a round about this big, and the mould around it is kind of like a soft shell to keep the cheese from sloshing about.” She grinned mischievously at her sister. “When Amyrallyn cut into it, the completely melted cheese came out in a great wave, all over her!”

“It completely ruined my dress,” Amyrallyn pouted.

Nimay giggled despite herself, and promptly snapped her cracker in two while trying to spread cheese on it. The split cracker dropped onto her leg—cheese side down, naturally, much to the swordie’s annoyance. She sighed, then shrugged and popped the cracker in her mouth, scraping the cheese off her pants with a fingernail.

The Llayans were giggling at their inept guests.

“Well,” Nol said, picking crumbs of blue vein off his lap, “Sorry if we’re not skilled in the art of cheese eating.”

Nimay grinned and took another cracker, being very careful not to break it this time.

And then they all died because ‘narti couldn’t come up with a decent ending, probably because the whole fic is just crap. The end. But then 'narti got bullied into making a decent ending! =0 So there was. Sorta. It still sucks.

"Lynnlita thinks more cheese is require for the volume of wine."

Nol shrugged and took a pained gulp of his otherwise untouched glass. "You're right. I couldn't stand to drink that much wine. We need more cheese."
