The Hangover
Notes: The previous evening, 3-26-2011, Aoide and Vitazeau had been attempting to cheer up Cordir (The Comfort of Bards). They chatted for quite some time in the Baths, telling stories and singing songs. They brought some beverages to help brighten the event, one of which was a bottle of whiskey which they presented to Cordir. Later that evening after their departure, she imbibed... a bit overmuch. This is the result.
