Title: Merri's Angels?
==============================================================================
On the day of the Regent's marriage to the Princess of Tir, passed around the watery holes of the Grand Promenade is a mysterious tale of varying detail, though it started out like this:
"Ohh carp, Wedding Alert. They just lost the Best Man."
"The Lord Warden? How? Wait, I can guess this: Something! Went awry! In the Deep!"
"Something did, indeed. Some last-minute adventure. The nerve of some pirates!"
"Privateer now, isn't it?"
"You can never tell with that one. Definitely hiding something."
"Not with those pants. Oh, you mean with all those trips to the dungeons with his lovely lady wife."
"And Princess Miriam. Stop snickering. You'll be jailed for treason or something."
"Nah, the jails are full. I heard they've been reopening cases to figure out who can be Flushed."
"The Royal Flush! That's it, that must be what happened. The Lir knights Flushed him!"
"On the eve of the Regent's wedding? They wouldn't dare."
"All I know is they followed Lord Merrisol to the palace yesterday. And then I hear he had to be dragged outta some pit by three topsider ladies. Lady Maggie, Forgemistress Ruby, and err, not the Princess. The other silverhair... Baroness D'Sorgo."
"Weird names, those topsiders. Weird hair. Red, black, and yellowy? I just can't help staring."
