Cuhulian Wastes Away (continued)

The Red and Green ladies pretty much took charge of the snuffling and enfeebled Cu, negotiating a nice suite for him at the tourist court, making sure he was all comfy, providing him this and that and workin' a little magic, on 'em. Then they put him to sleep with the foretelling "Ye'll be all well in the mornin' an' ready fer a big day." And that is precisely what was to happen.

Next day bright and early the Red and Green ladies arrived right after Cu had performed his ablutions and they had breakfast and some instructions, fer 'em. The breakfast was whole wheat toast, ham and eggs fried up in the ham fat, grits and sliced tomatoes. There was also plenty of coffee and and cold milk to wash it down with along with some ginger bread and blueberries for dessert.

Then once Cu had broken fast sufficiently to pay attention, the twain ladies in red and green began instructing Cu on what he would do next if he knew what was good, fer 'em. " Now Cu, pay attention and don't chew with yer mouth open no matter what ye hear. Understand!"

"Um hm."

"All righty then. Down several hallways in this labyrinth of a tourist court ye will come to a great hall. And in that hall ye will see three fifties of divans and three fiftes of nubile maidens disporting on those divans. Ye will cool yer heels there in that hall until Gog turns up. He is supposed to take ye to a parlor off'n the hall to see the most beautiful lady in these parts so perhaps ye can restrain yerself with the 150 nubile maidens fer a half hour, if'n ye know that. If Gog gives ye any trouble go into yer rage and he'll back off, maybe. This lady yer going to meet goes by Fand. She is a Banshee queen and likes poetry. So much will we tell thee."

Then the two ladies, with never a by yer leave, changed their formats into the formats of birds and flew out the window.

"Whoa." Thought Cu. "Them two is not to be trifled with."

But Cu was revived and could not help also thinking. "It's a wonder they didn't crap all over everthing."

After awhile, and having completed his post breakfast abutions, Cu wandered off to explore the tourist court labyrinth and to see if he could find the hall with all the divans and maidens because he was surpassin' curious to see all that. And once he fetched up at the hall, Cu wasn't disappointed, for not only were there 3x50 maidens, some of them performing topless clog dancin', but the very same ventriloquist dogs that Cu had been keenly observin' at the Samuin picnic were also present and they were performin' too. So Cu settled on to one of the 3x50 divans, to watch the entertainment and await the arrival of Gog.
