"Dankquet? Seems Legit" 3.31.12

Bonzai and Chex Mix recieve a letter from the town of Urathek thanking Flex Com Inc for their efforts in restoring their town's image in the eyes of the public, and inviting the party to a banquet held in their honor. The two answer the letter, as the remainder of the party were out on a shopping trip to pimp out Cottage Le Dank. They visit their friends within the town upon arriving, but find it difficult to adequately speak with them as the tourist industry is back in full swing. Opting to buy some new threads for the soiree, Chex Mix buys a green tunic and Bonzai buys himself a fancy new collar. Arriving at the great oak doors to the banquet hall, the two make a few last minute spiff-ups (including switching to direwolf form [Bonzai] and switching from armor to tunic [Chex Mix]) before entering upon a masquerade in their honor. Walking down the aisle of spectators towards a "king" and "queen" figure on thrones at the end of the hall, the two stop before a small child who has wandered into the aisle to pet Bonzai. The room grows still as Bonzai aproaches and subsequently nuzzles and licks the little boy's hand. All motion in the room stops, as the spectators and child freeze in place. The silence is interrupted by the closing of the great oak doors and a slow clap from the masked "queen" at the end of the room. The dancers and merry makers begin to evaporate from the door to the thrones as the woman removes her mask to reveal none other than the dragon-hating Agatha. Throwing potions at the adventurer's feet to summon potion horrors, she engages the two in fierce combat. She suffers a crushing defeat and evaporates, along with her corporal memory. Chex Mix and Bonzai return to Lobith, thoroughly aggrivated by the unfortunate turn of events for the evening.
