Arspeth showing up at the tavern and not recognising them?
I'm not sure that this will work. Olive's hair has been put up in a bun, revealing her Angel Mark.
Like, an amazing amount of chaos?
A little bit of infused humour is good, but let's not stray too far from the story we have been writing, which is not a comedy.
I think we need to concentrate on using the prompts given in previous entries to help direct the story.
For example, in recent entries:
Araspeth has mentioned the Scriptures, and she is treading carefully where Olive is concerned.
Her exact words are, "And we will maintain our distance until we understand the depths of her power.”
@ps102 has introduced Kurai the shadow, and it appears the Queen is about to give chase.
Also, it's been revealed that Olive is the daughter of Cassandra, ruler of the southern peninsula.
Also, the Queen is in possession of a mysterious, old and beaten violin.
(How can we connect all this to the girls' sideline into music?)
But it's also important to remember that the girls know they are on a journey of discovery and each one wants to find out the "truth" so I don't think they would want to dawdle too long pretending they are musicians.
And then we have our other characters - Dusca, Barnabas, Hemios, Wren, Olten, Pria...
