There was once a young prince in a nation named Natlan. This young prince was named Kinich. He had a jester named lyney, who would endlessly entertain him with tricks anytime he was asked. One day when lyney was called in by the prince he was informed that it was ajaws birthday. And the conversation would go from there. On with the story!
"Lyney!" Kinich called, awaiting his jester. Lyney hurried to the prince and replied "Yes your highness?" Lyney looks at him with a cheerful expression making sure to never disappoint the royals. "It's ajaws birthday today, the almighty 'king' wishes to have a party set to his liking. I want you to set up the decorations with the butlers and make sure to arrange it so that everything is in order, no funny business" Kinich stares down at him from his high throne, awaiting some sort of response. Lyney nods "Yes your highness, I'm happy you intrusted me with this and I will be sure not to let you down!" His smile dosent falter and without any hesitation, he bows down to him. Kinich raises an eyebrow "What are you waiting for? You can go attend your duties" He reminds, lyney gets up from his knees dusting them off and nodding before going off to do the job he was assigned.
Arriving to the party room, he's surprised to see how gloomy and ruined it is. "Good heavens, when was the last time this place saw a party? Better yet some light!" He looks at the depressing scene in front of him in disbelief. He lets out a sigh and keeps his smile "no matter, the prince himself thinks I'm up for the task so I know I'm capable of this." He begins to tear down the cobwebs and move around the tables and chairs to reach the most highest of spots in the room. A short while later the butlers kinich had mentioned arrive to help out. Lyney recalls that he can ask them to get him materials for this job! A sudden burst of realization hit him, this would make the job so much easier for him. Who would've thought that a jester, such as himself would be able to achieve such authority. He smiles and asks the butlers "Could one of you get me a ladder, a bucket of paint with some paint brushes, and some new lights? It could really help this place brighten up." He smiles and watched them as they go to fetch them without any disagreements. When the stuff he asks for is all in order, he begins to paint the walls orange. The butlers all seem very confused at this act but then he begins to paint ajaw on the wall, putting yellow flowers all around the room from top to bottom. He sets up the decorations with the help of the butlers and smiles at his work, he just prays to the archons that all of this will be enough to impress the prince and ajaw of course. "Lyney!" The prince called out, he looks behind him to see the door and he exits the room to go to him, the bells on his hat jingling as he walks out. He once again, arrives to kinichs throne "Yes your highness?" He smiles keeping his cheerful tone and bows down to him. Kinich dosent seem very lively but he never really is "Have you prepared the party room? I assume it's up to demand." He leans his head on his hand, awaiting a reply. "Yes your highness the party room is all set, I hope it is to ajaws liking, along with you." He looks up at kinich and sees him nodding. "Very well then, please go give this to the chefs so they can prepare the food immediately" He takes out a sheet of paper from his pocket handing it to the jester. Lyney gets up and takes the paper "Will do your highness" He begins to hurry off as he gives the paper to the chefs "princes orders" They look it over and nod at lyney, heading straight to the kitchen without question.
When that's finally all set and done, lyney sighs and slides his back against a wall and sits on the floor chuckling to himself "Oh archons, my back is killing me. Who knew being a jester would be such hard work" He chuckles and runs his hand through his hair. After that short break of his, he finally gets ready to entertain at the party. Arriving to the party room he finds kinich alone in the room, seeming to admire the sight of the fact that the room is practically unrecognizable. "Que lindo.." Lyney approaches him "Your highness?" Kinich flinches and jolts to look behind him "lyney you know better than to disturb the prince and his moments." He crosses his arms "Yes I know your highness, but you just seemed very mesmerized I couldn't help but want to ask you if you liked my work.." kinichs eyebrows raise "Oh that's what this was about? There are more formal ways to do that lyney but.. yes I am rather impressed by your work" Lyneys face brightens up brighter than the lights and colors in the room, he's so happy that the prince himself likes his work. Kinich coughs "you did a good job today please take the day off today and be ready to entertain tonight, I'll see you later lyney" when kinich walks away and out the door lyney starts jumping up in the air and punching it like a little kid. "Heck yeah! Man could this day get any better!" He chuckles to himself and heads to his bedroom and lying down. "Man this whole day was exhausting but so worth it!" He smiles and chuckles until suddenly he feels his phone vibrating. He picks it up to see his siblings calling, he picks up the phone and answers "Hey Lynette how are you? And how's Freminet?" He smiles and hears Lynette's voice "We're both doing well, how about you big brother? How's being a jester in natlan like?" She questions "Man it's pretty exhausting but it's so worth it! The job is so thrilling to me, especially with the fact that I get to work with one of the best royals I know!" Lyney squirms around like a teenager with a crush in his bed. "Calm down Lyney you sound a little too happy, you don't wanna wear yourself out more. So tell me, what else has happened?" Lyney laughs and gets up "Sorry my dear sister, it's just that I've never seen the prince so mesmerized by my work. He's said good job but never dozed off and complimented it like he did today." He smiles and Lynette sighs with a smile. "Big brother you're always so cheerful all the time, I don't get how you do it. I'm sure he'll compliment you more in the future." Lyney smiles and coughs to change the subject "Look at me blabbering away about my own life, please Lynette tell me how you a fremi are doing" Lynette calls freminet over to talk to lyney "Freminet is on his way over here, I don't have much to talk about but everything has been well. Father has just been giving us new jobs and asks us how your doing most of the time. We don't do much aside from the stuff we always did, you know?" Lyney agrees "Yeah I know, I'm glad you two have been good. How about father?" Freminet enters the room and takes the phone "father has been well.. how are you lyney with the new job and all?" Lyney smiles "Oh why it's great! But how are you little brother" Freminet frowns a bit "I'm well but I'm worried for you.. there's war in Natlan.." lyney just smiles and reassures him "It's only the fatui, they're with us remember? I won't be harmed" Freminet sighs "But what if they do? What if they even mistake you for someone else and don't notice in time-" lyney stops him "Freminet I assure you everything will be okay quit the worrying and take care of our sister and father.." Freminet calms down but stays a bit worried "alright lyney.. stay safe.." lyney chuckles "I will Freminet take care" he hangs up and his smile falters "I.. really miss them both.." he frowns and lies down to stare at his ceiling.
