Cloudbury Fashion Week
âItâs Cloudbury Fashion Week, if you didnât know, and Iâm running late.â
âI donât keep up to date with community events,â Vexx muttered. âBesides, Iâve been out of town for a while. Why do you need me for this, anyway?â
âWell, itâs not like Naruan is up for it any more,â Sophokleus snapped, pointing at the fallen mage. âHe doesnât seem likely to leap up and model for me.â
Vexx paused a moment, considering. âAhâ¦no. No, I suppose not.â
âSo itâll have to be you! I canât do it; Iâll be too busy selling my merchandise. And these two fair young maidens will be showing off womenâs clothing.â
âNever fear,â Shyola purred. âIâm built for it,â she said, shifting her hips below her flowing green robes. âUnlike this stick-thin elf.â
âHah!â Kaylin glared from below her huge teal hat. âYouâre as far from a fair young maiden as itâs possible to get. Vexx?â She pouted her lips and smoothed a hand over her shimmering evening gown before batting her eyes at him. âWhich one of us do you prefer?â
âAhâ¦â
âYouâre both wonderful,â Sophokleus butted in. âNow, thereâs no time like the present! Cloudbury is up ahead, just show your stuff! Weâll be the talk of the town! You knowâ¦Iâm kind of glad they died,â he said, gesturing over at the two corpses in sparkling robes. âThey never had the same spark that you two have.â
âGlad to hear it, darling,â Shyola replied, starting down the road to Cloudbury. Kaylin hurried over in a huff.
Vexx raised an eyebrow at the fashion designer. âTheyâre dead, and you move on so soon? Youâre quite the loyal one.â
Sophokleus shrugged. âThis is fashion, young man. There is no more cut-throat or ruthless industry in existence. Itâs nothing as carefree and happy-go-lucky as dungeoneering.â
âI suppose not,â Vexx muttered, falling into line behind Kaylin and Shyola, distracted by their low-cut clothing. Iâve certainly done worse jobs than this.
âNow work that robe!â Sophokleus said, clapping his hands as they rounded the corner and approached Cloudburyâs gate. âWork it, Vexx, work it! Youâre a sexy magician, Vexx, a noble sorcerer from a far-off land! Shyola, youâre perfect, Kaylin, youâre a natural. Vexx! Put some sex in your step! Sell it for me, Vexx, sell it for me!â
