AE Ski Lodge!
AE Ski Lodge!
You're sitting at the dining room table, drinking a luxurious glass of fresh, ice-cold lemonade. Through the open window comes the sound of evening crickets; a breeze is just beginning, blowing the summer heat away. The air is full of the scent of jasmine and roses from the garden. There's no homework to do, no tiresome school to attend. You take a deep breath and enjoy the moment.
Only then the moment is shattered by two voices shouting. Then comes a small explosion.
"OW! Now I've got green pepper in my hair!"
"Yeah, like that's a problem. I've got bacon fat in my socks!"
Two figures run past you, leaving a trail of muddy footprints, crumbs, leaves, and green pepper behind them. Just as the dust is settling, a third figure runs after them, blowing a trumpet at an earsplitting pitch while simultaneously brandishing a police siren. The noise is deafening. And it doesn't go away, as the newcomer sits on the piano and proceeds to give you a concert that could be entitled "The New Sound: How to Drink Your Lemonade and Go Deaf While Doing It."
You sigh. How are you ever going to enjoy your summer this way? There doesn't seem to be the slightest chance that the beautiful, relaxing, glorious summer you had imagined, will actually come to pass. You'd envisioned hiking through the woods, lounging around all day with a book, and trying new recipes. Right now, trying a new recipe sounds about as farfetched as going to the moon.
The third AE hops off the piano abruptly and tosses a tomato-stained envelope at you.
"What's this?" you ask.
"Came in the mail." And the AE runs off, trumpet noises and siren alike dying away in the distance.
It seems like the end of a fanfare, somehow.
You open the envelope and draw out a piece of paper with a picture of Zeus at the top.
Dear CBer,
Are you tired and exhausted by your AEs' shenanigans? Do you want your summer for yourself again? Well, you're in luck. I'm writing to you on behalf of the Divine Travel Agency, a new enterprise established specifically for CBers and their annoying Alter Egos.
Starting today, your AE can enjoy a five-star vacation, complete with hotel, side trips, and more, free of charge! Best of all, this vacation takes place in another world... a destination that will at once enthrall your AE and give you peace. What better choice than Mount Olympus, home of the gods themselves? Here, your AEs can travel through scenic landscapes, meet the gods, and enjoy the best of what Olympus - famed mountain of myth and legend - has to offer.
Chaos and adventure may ensue - these are AEs we're talking about, after all - and you sign them up at your own risk. But what does that matter? Fill out the forms below on behalf of your AEs - and gain instant peace of mind!

And don't forget Agent 58, assistant to Agent 59!
Oh yes. You. I suppose you can sign as well.
Well, I already did! And I'm the one in charge of the entire operation! I'm the one who remembered the snacks, got the Kleenex boxes in order, issued the invitations, and cleaned up the hotel! Oh dear, that reminds me - I've got to buy new mops, since the last one went on a trip round the world. Excuse me...
He-hem, yes, don't mind him. I repeat: Sincerely, Agent 59 -
And Agent 58 -

You seize upon the enclosed forms and fill them out. When you're done, they gently vanish away, leaving you with a sense of excitement. An adventure has begun.

Sorry, I copied and pasted this, so it came out a little weird. Hemlock’s parts were supposed to be in bold (>=Hemlock=<), and Kauri’s in italics ( }Kauri{ ). Also, I am locking to get Kauri shipped, so they’re fine with anyone.
