Lady Bluefooted’s Society Paper, Volume Two
Dear Reader,
As war approaches, this lady wants to remind you that it is your civic duty to support the war effort by spending lavishly on balls, gowns as well as to tip your waiter and local socialite columnist. We simply need to keep the regiment running as the rest of us enjoy the winter months.
Unfortunately, this week there have not been many sightings of any eligible bachelors to include Captain Andrew Bell, and it pains me to write this dear reader, but there are so many noble and common-born warriors that are not with us at the moment. Please do send letters to your loved ones and friends at the front in these dark times.
That has not stopped the Cobbler brothers from getting into a fight with a chicken owned by one Miss Freya Uki, formerly the queen's blessed. She was last seen in public telling the two off and then in an odd moment, jumping onto and riding a chicken away from the two rabbits, who were left holding the bag. Now she winds away her days working on some top-secret project that even this author is unable to pick up the word about.
Mister Francis Seafoam on the other hand has taken this opportunity to play his bid for Madame Leng’s paw and perhaps we will hear wedding bells sooner rather than later. Who could tell why she has held out for so long, only to finally give in. That is one match that will be blessed to share an early option to marry.
Lord Da Seung, the baron of boots, on the other hand, seems to have been avoiding the spotlight. Surely his stock will rise as his company spends more and more time selling supplies to the crown. Parliament will have his neck if his equipment is of poor quality, but rest assured that you will hear of any such developments here, dear reader.

A little birdie has told this author that the war effort is stagnated for the most part and one should hope that our brave warriors return in time for the mid-winter ball.
Lord Henry Richards himself has been seen more often than not with Miss Abigail Smith and the smart money is on a proposal for the fantastic foxes. Perhaps we overstep our bounds with this, but this has the makings of a smart match. Keep your eyes on this pair, fair reader.

The Due
Every sailor knows the tale of Davy Jones' Locker. That place drowned sailors are sent to, ever resting on sea's bed. Some tales recount of a ghostly ship, the Flying Dutchman. Many a story has spawned from these two tales. Countless retellings mixing in their own fictions. But all stories spawn with a kernel of truth to them, and the story of Davy Jones is no exception. Those who've met the legendary seaman and his ghostly ship might call him a ferryman, escorting the drowned to their respective afterlives. Others might call him a devil, meting punishment on those deserving. The true story is always slightly different. Davy Jones is a ferryman, but not one for the afterlife, as Walter finds out. No, Davy Jones manages those who die at sea while in debt, and Walter died with a lot of debt. Unable to pay, Davy puts Walter to work. The specter has just the job for the dead college graduate. Another god, Sod, needs an afterlife for his new world. Davy tasks Walter with the job. Suddenly, Walter finds himself having to run a fledgling underworld with little instruction from Sod. To top it off, the denizens of Sod's world have their own ambitions to achieve godhood, and they won't take kindly to Sod's newest employee shaking up the status quo. [Traumatizing Content tag is up just to let everyone know this will be a story that deals with different themes of death. Some of them won't be nice and so better to be safe than sorry.]
