E1: Invitation for the Duchess

There's a grand event taking place in a fictional land of your choice. Create an invitation worth salivating over.

As I followed Taliesin to where I'd (hopefully) be reunited with Alice, a pleasant aroma filled the air. It smelled of barbecue and bonfire with a hint of marshmallow with chocolate. Taliesin paused and sniffed.

“Ah, we are invited to the Princess Beladora's fifteenth birthday party, to be held this afternoon at the palace. Be there or lose your head.”

I looked around. There was nothing in view. “Could you tell all that by the smell?”

“Well, yes. How are invitations given where you're from?” Taliesin shrugged. “And Maritte did remind me to sniff carefully. It would never do for a Dragon's person to be rude. Everyone will be there, so you can be reunited with the cat.”

“To the party, then,” I said, and we continued down the path to what I now assumed was the palace.
