Ball.
The ball was pleasant enough. I found a lovely dress that I thought was suitably feminine, ruffly, and easily torn away should I need to run for my life. It also showed off my lovely collarbones. No one seemed to notice, sigh. Though Adelgar did have me announced as Lady. It was a first. I pretended like I didn't know he wrote it on the piece of paper. Prince Grumpy, and all that.
Adelgar did seem pleased with me, however, when I managed to use a distraction to tie E's shoelaces together. Sadly, he didn't quite fall on his face. I ended up dancing with the very same E, and he urged me towards lady-like behavior when I was looking at his backside. These Amberites. I think I'll enjoy this little game, however.
Only got asked to dance once. Again, sigh. The amount of champagne I consumed makes up for it, I guess. Now, I head back to our camp. I suppose I should change out of the dress. It's itchy, anyways. How can these people wear such things, all the time? I'll take hide against my own, any day.
