Lutes and Lovers Issue #543 Trade Fair Edition Lutes and Lovers Issue #543 (The Double TradeFair Issue)

Inside this Tradefair Edition issue of the renowned and erotic guide to all things bardic are interviews with Ewnin the Mysterious Woodsman of T’Nanshi, 3 Flowerily Questions with Lady Keira Sophia Dane Tochi'larian, and pictorial drawings of the Diva of FRAwen Fannie Mouze at the Beach.

~ A lovely watercolor of Frannie at the beach with a revealing little pink top that proudly states why she got the capitol letters in FRAwen and a see through lace wrap tired about her waist as she lays out a blanket upon the sand on a lovely sunny day in Western M’Chek.~ Ewnin of Verossia, the Mysterious Woodsman of the T’Nanshi. Recently, he sat down with our own Peri'Minna at his elusive cave where he spoke of himself and his ways to her. At first, a little taken back by meeting a Verossian in a dark cave because we forgot to renew our Stormbitch insurance but he is a very warm and personable person and soon we warmed up to him as we sat upon the stool and took in the peacefulness of his cave. No sound of people or pathways but a calm and peaceful air settles over you. Very relaxing and we can see why he prefers this over the villages.

Ewnin is regarded as one of the foremost archers not only in the forest but the south by the staff of Lutes and Lovers and we learned this is because of his father. He was renowned archer that protected the Spiritlands in the war against Drotid and M’Chek and taught his son how to handle a bow. He fell protecting the people and lands against the invader of the many we try to remember in giving more than asked to save us. Through his continued practice with the bow is a means to honor his father and stay connected to him and his family. In today’s world this is humbling to hear from one that is so skilled and isn’t seeking an ounce of fame.

We also got puzzled as Ewnin is also a renowned woodworker. How can one be a Verrosian and such a skilled woodworker? We had to admit the answer took us by surprise and many different ways of him answering. Because he views it as holy duty in keeping the forest and nature healthy by pruning the branches back to let the sunlight through, let the saplings grow and provide them room, and to remove the old so they don’t sick and risk the forest itself. This started to make perfect sense to us about how he can be both. For when he ventures out into the forest to gather wood for his art; it becomes a divinely watched duty.

We asked him about his shop, Hoormany Secoonan and what one thing he enjoys making. With his answer of bows, arrows, and instruments with a playful smile; we belive he is possible Fey for the invoking of three! When we visited his shop later the quality was amazing, so skilled! When he not protecting the forest or making wonderful things. He enjoys the peace of the forest. Walks amoung the trees, seeing the animals, and listning to the winds as they softly blow through our forest. It was also revealed to us that he is good horseback rider and was ranked in the Hoffy Bish Bash Cup races that were popular a few years back. He does give lessons both his arts; making things from wood and using a bow. If you ever wanted to learn leave a note at his store and he might show you a few things.

Ladies and some gentlemen, we did pose the lover question to him and he just smiled and confirmed nothing. So, maybe there a chance if the flowers are right.

We leave you with this. If you happen to cross his path in the forest then be humble and respectful of nature and you might make a friend of him.

~A lovely watercolor of Frannie sitting on her blanket with her huge floppy pink hat on. Her hair cascades over her breast cause her top is laying by her side. She has the most serene smile gracing her.~

How did you get started with the singing: Well it started when I was very young. I was singing hymns in temple and people really enjoyed it. I enjoyed it too!

How did FRAwen start? It seems to come out of nowhere and take over: Funny story that is. I was missing the stage and MMM in Ferrell wasn’t happening as often as it used to. So I plotted to host a musical event at Mikon’s Finest and it just happened. In walks this little runt of a woman and she is going to dance. The crowd was blow away and I thought to myself. I can build something with this. The other performers blew them away too, don’t get me wrong. They were great. A few days later, I ran into her and we started talking and instantly my ideas came out and she was planning them. Her ideas came out and I was planning them. The birth of FRAwen! Frannie and Nawen thing that became real. Think it was her that coined FRAwen as its written but it could have been me. By that time we were deep into the basket of Ferrellian cuppies.

~ A lovely watercolor of Frannie walking into the waves with her sunkissed skin and her hair accenting her curves. That little pink bottom she wears hugging her hips and protecting what no mortal has seen in the flesh. ~

So FRAwen has played so many places like Elysia where you did every pub, Drakehall to break it in, Tradefair, reopening the Bardic Academy, and even the Nine Towers in that stunning concert. What’s next?

What isn’t next? True we missed the First Craft Fair but then Nawen has fear of gnomes and I was grounded cause my mother found my diary and read what Nawen had done and I only watched. Yet, watching was enough to get me grounded, once again.

Wait a moment! Nawen gets you grounded?

So many times she gotten me grounded. The worse was when I borrowed one of her poetry books to study up on Fey Poetry styles and my mother found it in my room. Needless to say I didn’t see sunlight for almost two months and she still has Nawen’s book tucked away in her room. So much naughty prose about what she dreaming of doing to that hunter of hers back when they first dated, I’ll never be allowed to take book from her home again.

~A lovely watercolor of Frannie sitting in the wet sand, with her arms behind her as she braces for the incoming waves. Her floppy hat shielding her face from the sun and her wet hair flowing like a waterfall over her breast which conceals them as she smiles that little smile; as the waves lap at her toes. ~

So, what should one do if they wish to date you? Since you are notoriously single and yet so lovely. Well first would be to meet my family and not be run off by my brothers; mostly my brothers. Then pray they don’t find a reason to find you unacceptable. So, far none have passed.

~A lovely watercolor of Frannie laying in the surf as her bottom is depicted floating away but don’t worry as the waves are covering her and anything you wish to have seen.~

If one ever makes it that far. What would be your idea date?

A nice dinner at a little tucked away place like that outdoor café in Visimontium or maybe a night at Mikona’s Finest. I’d settle of a nice walk too. Somewhere like a beach or pretty gardens.

~ A large two page watercolor drawn spreads across the page. It’s Frannie lying on her blanket, her floppy hat down to the point you only see her glowing smile. Her wet hair flowing down around her neck and over her breast to conceal them and tapers off on her flat toned tummy that has little beads of sweat forming upon her.~

Lutes and Lovers Issue #543 (The Double TradeFair Issue)

~As you open the second issue of this double issue of Lutes and Lovers. You are greeted to a treat if you have the first issue open and placed to the left.~

~Picking up where the last one ended is the watercolor of Frannie laying on her blanket at the beach. Across these two pages is the rest of her. As she lays there in the sun drying and soaking up rays from her swim. Her bottoms long gone but she been having a snack. A rather large cupcake with the frosting half licked off rest where upon her treasure and shields her modestry as it lifts from the page on little paper hinges and if your pervy enough to look, you will look under the watercolor is unfinished. Her legs toned from years of performing cross each other and her toe nails are polished in a lovely pink and white sparkle motif. ~

What inspires you?

Well, anything green that’s Ferrellian is a huge helper in that area. Life, really is. A lot my songs are based solely on what I’ve seen while out adventuring. Baking too, I love to bake unless Nawen is around and reads the recipe then I am grounded cause that girl can make ‘Flour, Eggs, and Milk” sound like it’s a threesome.

What turns you on? No Comment!

What turns you off? Rude people, talking while others sing is just rude, poor tippers as you sat there and enjoyed but show that with such poor tips, that’s just rude and even mean.

Three Questions with Peri'Minna to Lady Keira Sophia Dane Tochi'larian

On a bright and sunny day, we had the pleasure of sitting with Lady Keira Sophia Dane Tochi'larian in the flowers outside her lavish estate Stone Harbor to meet the newest voice for arts and cultural matters in the south.

She is so tall and pretty that we weren’t sure which questions to start with. We swear she is Fey even though she said she not. One isn’t that pretty without a touch of garden blood in her. That is what we asked her first: Lady Keria are you sure you are not of Fey blood, cause you’re so pretty! She laughed and answered in the most charming voice that regardless of the answer. We are pretty sure she is Fey!

As the daughter of Sir Frederick Dane, Imperial Navy Officer, and Lady Sophia Tochi’larian, the young heiress grew up in Trenish Society, mostly kept from the world’s affairs and troubles, before being sent to Crosstreams for her education. She studied the arts, music, fencing, history and cartography. Her aunt Grace offered her a chance to learn about the south while living at Stone Harbor South and she took the chance and is now trying to find her place. Next we asked her about the difference between the arts in the ‘civilized’ north and what she seen in the south so far?

I have seen little of the arts in the south but I am hoping that changes soon. I have recently been in contact with a Lorewarden named Aneirin who is going to show me to the Art Gallery and Performance Hall in Nor'Seere and the Academy of Bardic Arts in Visimontium. I am looking forward to that. In Crosstreams, the Theatre District was always full of music and art, from the small playhouses to the large opera halls. At home in Trenium, the festivals were filled with music and drinking.

Hopefully, this tradefair shows her the lively arts of the south and that we are just as cultured as the north. Our last question was about what drew her to the south? After I finished my classes at the Royal College of the Seven Cities and the Hawke Academy, I realized I still knew little of the South, other than a few major historical points. My aunt Grace offered me the chance to be here and learn, and I think my mother really wanted me out of her hair for a while.

We get it, we are still getting use to M’Chek and its way and escaping someone’s hair. Well that’s what I am doing now being out of the keep! Because Lady Dane Tochi'larian is so pretty! We asked a bonus question about this Society we are seeing posters with her name on them? The Avlissian Society for Knowledge was built by my aunt Grace as a place to share history, lore, and knowledge with others. The Society is dedicated to the sharing this information freely, preserving artifacts, researching culture, mapping the world, documenting the history of Avlis and beyond. The Society is open to all who seek to learn or share this knowledge. Leaving her flowery spot was hard. It is so pretty there and if you get the chance to meet Lady Dane Tochi'larian. Do so as you won’t regret it.

~A final drawing of Frannie at the beach graces the last page. It depicts her running off as two very large rock like feet are upon the blanket and framing the drawing. Her floppy hat is flying through the air and the word “ZOOTERKINS” is above her head. There is also a cupcake that is half eaten flying through the air and timely captured covering the bum that graces a thousand and three dreams. The cupcake is hinged to lift off the page.~
