Pearl is sprawled on the floor of the main room. She's found a large supply of paper and crayons and so, they are spread out around her. She is busy colouring a picture in red crayon, a picture of a devil. She is very intent on her work, but she certainly wouldn't mind having someone to colour with her, should they happen to stumble upon her. Or

*Clytemnestra happens to be passing through the main room, and - look! A little girl! With a slightly sad smile she kneels down next to her* What are you drawing?

[the_elfchild]

*without looking up* The Devil, ma'am.

[queens_revenge]

I'm afaid I haven't heard of him. Is he a great God?

[the_elfchild]

He rules over Hell, ma'am!

[queens_revenge]

Ah, a great King then!

[the_elfchild]

*nodnodnod* Oh, yes! And he danced with my mother in the forest.

[queens_revenge]

*actually sits down next to her* That's very nice of him. Does your mother like dancing?

[the_elfchild]

I suppose that she does. Do you like to dance?

[queens_revenge]

*smiles* Sometimes - if there's anyone to dance with.

[the_elfchild]

You should dance with the Devil. I am going to!

[queens_revenge]

Perhaps I shall. He must very much like dancing if he dances with so many people.

[the_elfchild]

I suppose that he does. *holds up her picture* This is a drawing of it!

[queens_revenge]

Oh, what a nice drawing. The Muses must favor you indeed. *loves talking to children*

[the_elfchild]

.... I am not sure if they do, but I think that the Devil does! And he is my favourite! *beamity*

[queens_revenge]

The Muses are beautiful Goddesses. And they dance too, just as the Devil does!

It's wonderful that you have someone to favor you, especially your favorite.

[the_elfchild]

Then I think that I would like them very much indeed! Do they have books?
