Now that my meeting with the King was done, the metaphorical floodgates opened. Floodgates for what, I know you are asking. Well, the floodgates to invite me to different kinds of parties, be it tea parties or evening parties. Realizing just how many invites I got in the first two days after my meeting with the King really made me appreciate the rule that no one was allowed to invite me before I met with the King.
Now most of the invites were either from honorary nobles like myself, which I could easily just refuse, or low ranking nobles like barons, which again, I could just refuse. But there were also those coming from some of the higher ranked families, especially families whose members had been in the throne room when I met the King. Sure the person who was there might not have been the head, but when the second son of a marquess or a duke invites you to their house, an honorary baron such as myself has to come up with one heck of an excuse to not go.
Thankfully I only had two of those, so I’ll only have to suffer a little bit. Though Cressida did recommend that I hold a party of my own, not the HomeBase party, just one on the ground using the Sawyer capital manor, to boost my image a bit more. There are still some rumors about me floating about, and that might help me clear up my image. Not that I really care, but PR is something necessary.
But back to the two that I actually had to attend. One was a luncheon with Duke Cline, the prime minister. The other was Marquess Gallos and he was the captain of the Royal Knights. He had also asked me to bring Alice with me.
Don’t know why both of the high ranked people that invited me had to have special positions on top of everything, but I guess this is my life now. And of course because it is customary, I need to prepare some sort of gifts for them. And that is on top of the gifts I promised I’d give to Elias and the first Prince. So to Wilma it is.
“... Is this one of those ‘no pressure’ situations you always complain about?” Wilma asked, when I filled her in.
“Pretty much, yeah.” I confirmed. “So, any immediate ideas?”
“... Well, for His Highness the first Prince, you did say that he might prefer a sword cane, right?”
“That is what the second Prince told me.” I confirmed.
“We could maybe use a large bone from the Fenrir to make the cane part. Then maybe a sword with a blade made of vampiric steel, as that keeps itself free of blood. Use a bit of the paw pads at the bottom of the cane to make sure it is soft and …”
I listened for a while, as Wilma ran through her entire plan for the sword cane. It sounded … reasonable. Especially if I add an install to the sword itself, actually maybe one install to the sword and one to the cane part.
Yeah. And I think I just got a great idea on what I can use for the cane part. And if I add that card to the sword itself, I’ll make a real anti-mage sword cane.
“Okay. Next up, Elias.”

“... I still question how you got on a first name basis with the second Prince.”
“Don’t know, don’t care. Maybe letting him ride one of my dragons helped.”
“Did he ask for anything specific?” Wilma asked.
“No. He left it up to me. … which really doesn’t help.”
“... then perhaps something simple. Like a mantle using Fenrir fur?” Wilma suggested.
“Sure. I think that will work.” I agreed, just so we could move onto the next two. And I don’t have a better idea in the first place.
“The captain of the Royal knights is next.” I said. “I did ask Cressida a bit about him, and he does seem to enjoy lances. Do you think we could turn one of the Fenrir fangs into a lance?” I suggested.
“... I’ve never made a lance, but I think that is possible.” Wilma agreed. “So then… just the Prime Minister?”
“Yeah, but I didn’t get any hints towards that either.”
“We could make another mantle, but I don’t think we should give the Prime Minister and the second Prince the same gift.”
“Yeah, definitely not.” I agreed. “A weapon of some kind is always an option, but I kind of feel that something else might be better.”
As I thought about ideas, I pulled up my Collection, because my cards are a good source of inspiration.
“Oh. That will work.” I said. “Trap Jammer. I think we can make something that prevents traps.”
