Stories from RhyDin & The Rings

Jesse enters the Town Hall building and takes her place at the podium. Dressed in her three piece suit with blonde hair slicked back.

"Hello! I am Deathlord Jesse DeAngelo Van Bokkelen Graziano Helston O’Neill! Jesse for short, though I would rather you address me as Ms. Press Secretary for Governor Rekah!"

There already seemed to be a bit of disapproval in the crowd, though a small group cheered Jesse on. Jesse, being who she is, gave a princess wave to the crowd.

"We are here to discuss the recent events in Battlefield Park! The fire in some orphanage," Jesse rolled her wrist some, as if confused for a moment. "Wait, I'm not supposed to say SOME orphanage." Ahem. "We're here to discuss the recent fire that killed 17 individuals, most being children, at an orphanage within Battlefield Park. Since my answer to this from the Governors point of view is pretty simple, I will allow for questions!"

"Jesse!" She heard some journalists chanting. Jesse grumbled and turned her head. Obviously not listening.

"Ms. Press Secretary for Governor Rekah!" A woman in glasses yelled out. Jesse quickly pointed at her.

"You! Go!", Jesse replied.

"What is Governor Rekah response to this statement by an expert; `Experts suggest that the lack of organized political and policing systems within the city make it a hot-bed of violent crime`?"

"I would say that the expert is probably fat and stupid! The Governor has nothing to do with the fire brigade! It's funded by private donations and charity, not the Governors office! If anyone wants to blame someone for the fires, they should be blamed.. Or, who knows. You can also blame wizards and warlocks for not taking the time out of their busy lives to cast a water spell to knock out the fires. RhyDin is full of magically blessed creatures! Blame them if they couldn't get up and put out a fire! Blame the Avengers for not putting out the fires, or other vigilantly groups like them!

But nooo.. Let's put blame on Rekah, or the Watch." Jesse said while waving her hands up in the air.

"Children died! That's an outrage!" A man yelled. "Rekah should be addressing this!"

"Your face is an outrage!" Jesse retorted. "And.. uhhhh, no? The Governorship has absolutely nothing to do with the fire brigade! Are you deaf or stupid? Or should I say retarded? Wait.. Mentally challenged! I don't see Government money going to aid the fire brigade, and they don't answer to the Government.

I also should note. All children skeletal remains should be sent to me! For science! Next question?"

(( this thread is open to anyone. Post your questions and I'll have Jesse answer them! ))

A very standard, cut-from-stone and painted-by-sun Barbarian strides forward to shout out his question to Jesse, "Well, if nobody is in charge of these Fire Brigands, why does Rekah not hold a great battle to determine who will be the next Fire Brigand Chieftan? Am I right?! Only the strongest may rule!"

He turns back to the crowd afterwards, arms outstretched and head bobbing energetically, looking for support. The lack of it suggests that there are not many other barbarians within earshot.

"Well, if nobody is in charge of these Fire Brigands, why does Rekah not hold a great battle to determine who will be the next Fire Brigand Chieftan? Am I right?! Only the strongest may rule!"

Jesse put on the most deadpanned face right then. "Sir.." She spoke into the small mic. "Are you high? No, seriously. Are you high? Because I want some of whatever you've smoked, snorted, swallowed. The fire brigade is their own stand-alone," Snaps her fingers. "Or..," More finger snapping. "Organization! They have their own chieftain or whatever!"

Madam Press Secretary,

First of all, as a concerned citizen whom is no way a plant in the audience I want to say, congratulations on your appointment. We have much faith that you will handle your responsibilities as well as you have handled being the admiral of the only flying coast guard as well as holder of the tower of Earth.

I was wondering, will Rekah's campaign have it's own theme song or music video, and if so when will that be debuted?

"Thank you concerned citizen whom is no way a plant of mine in the audience! It is big shoes to fill but I have tiny feet and tons of paper to line the shoes so they don't fall off!

As for your question. Yes, Rekah will have a theme song for her Governor reign! I was thinking something along the lines of Shaggy - It wasn't me!"

Three muddy skeletons shuffle up to the mic to ask a question. After several minutes of fumbling around one of them produces a tattered piece of paper. They look at themselves several moments trying to figure out what to do next.

The woman having been in the area after asking he last question sighs snatching the page from the hand of the hopeless skeleton grumbling about incompetence off the mic. Recomposing herself she offers the Press Secretary a smile and looks at the page. Before turning back to the trio of undead.

"What is this a page from a coloring book?"

After a few moments of some exaggerated pantomime she returns to her translation.

"I believe these fine undead whom you have never met before wish to congratulate you on your filling of such big shoes. They also want to know what policies the Mayor will be enacting to help eliminate discrimination and hatred of the differently-alive?"
