Panatha - Approaching Vain Hollow
"No, no, it's Vain Hollow."
Though her mother's words escaped through pursed lips in the gentlest strain of tone, it was still perfectly clear over the rumble of speeder engine.
"Oh, right. Vaaaain-" baby blues watched the progression of spires on the horizon, rising like a spiked monster awakened from slumber, "Hol-low."
"Nn," Tricia Graves Zambrano reached to her daughter, plucking a stray lock of golden curls from her face with the distaste of someone touching something infectious, "you haven't been here in many years. Not since you were little and ... ebony. Do you remember it Veronica? The great feast in the Grand Hall and the God King telling the family story...uh!"
"I remember Quibble," came an answer her mother wasn't expecting. Veronica smiled brightly.
"That old Womprat? Veronica, your priorities are a little off."
"...I lost his tail..." suddenly a frown.
"His tail, dear?"
"It was lucky. I couldn't find it when I packed."
"Oh ... well I'm sure you'll find something to replace it. Or make something, hm? Think of all the things you'll learn from your Uncle. He can teach you Sorcery."
"That magick stuff?"
"That's right dear, the magick stuff," Tricia patted her daughter on the thigh and leaned to look out her window, "almost there now." It was unclear who was more enthusiastic to this news. Tricia wondered briefly who would receive her daughter. Veronica wondered if her Uncle would like his gift.
Unspoken Rule #7: Always bring a gift for the God-King when visiting Vain Hollow.
