Chapter Thirty-One

As more time and effort went into developing the cliff face into valuable real estate, the upper levels became more and more expensive as demand for the “more prestigious” locations quickly outpaced how quickly new rooms and buildings could be constructed out of the mesa. The actual top of the cliff face was still bare, with the exception of bunkers built around the edge to support the walls that were going up on the mesa itself, and the “high up” regions that were being used or developed into new buildings were only slightly over halfway up the cliff, but that was still hundreds of feet in the air. The new restaurant they were attending the opening of was one of those newer constructions, built into the mesa and sitting high in the air over Avalon, and the architecture was designed to amplify that.

Avalon didn’t have the level of infrastructure and the number of enchanters they’d need to start putting in magical elevators, although working to that point was a priority, so all travel up the cliff was via stairs. To get into the restaurant, you had to transfer from a public staircase into the restaurant’s private one, and there was a uniformed employee standing at a temporary booth on the landing.

“Invitations, please.”

Kay placed the card into the elven woman’s hand and took a moment to look over her attire. Formal clothing similar to Earth’s did show up here and there, the concepts and culture brought over by other Outworlders, but they weren’t the norm, and they weren’t the only fashion brought over from other worlds either. High-end waiters and staff in traditional Torotian restaurants also wore formfitting clothes to prevent trailing fabric from getting into food or knocking over glasses, but otherwise, it looked quite different. Kay thought it resembled some fictional and over-sexualized versions of Middle Eastern clothing from movies and TV. Thin diaphanous cloth draped over the woman’s body, wrapping around her neck and trailing down her arms and body until it twirled around her ankles, which he could just make out under the podium. It was very interesting to watch because the flowing and shifting cloth was very much not tight to the body and seemed like it would trail everywhere, but with each movement she made, it suddenly tightened around her, making it look like she’d suddenly changed into a latex bodysuit that wasn’t latex. After a moment, the cloth relaxed and began to drift around on its own again. It was very eye-catching.

“Wonderful.” She looked up with a smile. “Thank you for coming, Lord Kay, Lady Eleniah. Mister Davidson will be very happy to hear you could attend.”

“I’m not a lady,” Eleniah corrected her.

The staff member gave her a flat smile. “Of course, ma’am.” She elegantly gestured toward the staircase, her sleeves pulling taut against her. “Please, head upstairs, and someone will direct you to your seats.”

“I’m not a lady,” Eleniah muttered as they started up the spiraling staircase.

“Most people are probably under the impression that you’re not a lady yet,” Kay rebutted.
