Themed: Obviously. Tonight's theme is Triumph/Self-celebration.

Other music: Think beautiful and more than a little unsettling. Lady Mordu, perhaps, would be willing to suggest a few?

Decorations: comfortable as possible. Comfort and a little mind-stirring, that is the goal tonight. I'm smoking a rabbit out of the hole, and I'm doing it with class.
Dancing style: Waltzing, old tradition, mixed with crazy and total rave: unstable
Business: gifts to me tonight are henceforth suspended be they digestible; all incoming guests to be searched thoroughly and all guards to travel in pairs! My own staff is to be questioned by Lords Ignio and Arbados until we are clear who was responsible for the depravity. And by God, I want this to be the party of a lifetime. I want people spinning when they walk out, I want the champions, the servants, the nobles, the gifted, the guests--all--to be exhausted and happy and more than a little unsteady on their feet. My Lady Henri, remind them who the hell we are.
Court business: to proceed as previously planned. Ragfaron will be presenting tonight, there will be wars and training and fun. Frivolity. I do not want the People to recognize that we were in danger if and until I can return myself; expect me there around five in all likelihood.
Henri, Dyrim, pray you have the most beautiful of my dresses be prepared this evening. If I don't look like a goddess, Dyrim, I think your master will be most displeased.
Humans are to be welcome and privy to the current situation. Vampires, until they prove their connection with the royal family, are to be barred tonight; so are the werewolves. Accepting, of course, the monarchs and nobles of both. The un-noble are welcome only after passing a test to enter the Guard or my staff; the best tests and choicest of difficulty. My dear, dear brother, my Nephamael, I leave this to you, provided you aren't overcome with your new duties. Please do me this accord?
Faery revel tonight. Warn the incomers.
The Bolcyra in particular are welcome tonight, raise their glasses to my name. I would have my Champions fight in the tournaments this evening.
That should do it. Magic mirror me with questions.
Barring a visit from one person, I'll see you all in about seven hours--
Aqe Vale!
Eliac
