It is a close match between the two teams. And the match draws in a good deal of spectators. When the time frame of all rounds have passed it ends with a tie, so given some more tick of time Lorelei teams would have been able to get in the wining ball. Maeves team was saved by the bell.
It is now time to return to the Rebma's castle for Maeve's appointment with the royal dressmaker.
"Come along Lorlei." Maeve invites you.

Lorelei walks alongside Maeve back to the castle. As they walk, Lorelei asks, "Have you made any decisions about your dress? Are you wanting simple elegance or something fancy? Long, medium, or short? Colors? Crests? Sandals, shoes or barefoot? How do you plan to wear your hair?" .

"I think I will go with something traditional, elegant, sandals." Maeve replies. "I'm not sure about the lenght. That I have to try out. Hair, pinned up with a lot of needels."
She ponder sof a moment. "No crest. Colors green, blue, turquoise."

Lorelei smiles at Maeve, saying, "I think you will look exceptionally lovely with your hair pinned up. And if this is a Ball, it will drive the males to distraction." .

"It has occurred to me that this might be an unscheduled state dinner, prompted by the arrival of foreign dignitaries," Lorelei ponders. "That could easily explain the frantic responses of the castle servants..."

" Well that sounds better then a Dancing ball arranged to parade the two of us for some Rebma marriage candidates." Maeve replies.
" It also means you now have a date with the dress maker to. I will be mor fun if we both get the dressmaker crazy."

"Marriage is a thing here in Rebma, but not one we must generally choose," Lorelei replies. "In our family alone, one needs to looks no further than the Queen for the truth of that."
She laughs when Maeve expresses her idea of 'date' and 'fun'.
As they reach the castle, frantic servants rush them to the dressmaker... .

Maeve looks amused around. "Now this is going to be interesting. What will be your new dress?"

"Nothing too fancy," Lorelei answers as she looks at the bolts of cloth scattered around the room. She finds a bolt of extremely sheer black silk-like material with an opaque lace-like pattern. She drapes some of it across her torso and says, "This with silver trim... a skirt, short in front and coming down to about the knees in back, a plunging bodice with puffy sleeves, and some jewelry. I think that will accentuate my form without hindering movement. What do you think?" .

Lorelei holds the material to herself for a few moments waiting for Maeve's answer. Putting it down, she moves over and hugs Maeve across the shoulders. "We're here to have fun, remember? Show me what you've found..." .

"I think you should not take puffs, make it long sleeves that open at the end, trompet sleeves it is called."
Maeve replies.
She shaked her head "No worries I'm fine."
She point to a bolt of turquoise silk in dmast style. "I'm thinking of a two part dress, a half long skirt open at the side and a top."

"Are you thinking of going with a bare middle?" Lorelei asks curiously... .

Maeve grins shortly. "That is the idea yes, it combining Remba tradtions with new elemets."

"Rebma's aquatic environment favors practical apparel, as in to say as little as possible, but it ~is~ fun to play dress-up on occasion... especially with something new...," Lorelei agrees. .
