Love Is in the Air, Part I

The Ren'dorei woman named Tyanna Blackwood was in her office, balancing accounts when a knock came from the closed office door.

"Come," she called, not even looking up from her ledger.

Darynn the Sayaadi

"You give the best commands, Mistress," laughed the sayaadi. "But we don't really have that much time.. besides you never take me to your bed."

"Darynn, we've talked about that!" admonished Tyanna. "It is no reflection on you or your appeal."

"Then why have you banished me?" whined the succubus.

"I summon you every day, hardly an exile!"

"You summon me to do laundry and housework! That is worse than banishment!" exclaimed Darynn. "Especially after you forbade me to... ask for a little help."

Tyanna rolled her eyes. "Enslaving my butler was not an acceptable solution, and we still haven't been able to find a decent replacement!"

"It's not my fault you insist on them having free will," sneered Darynn. 

"Enough - the subject is not open for debate!" said Tyanna.

"You don't see the irony of enslaving demons to obey your commands but denying us the right to do the same?" sighed Darynn. 

"Oh, I see it - I just don't care. The Burning Legion was a very costly lesson, and only a fool would give you the freedom to wreak more havoc," admonished Tyanna. "Did you need something or just want to needle me?" Tyanna's sayaadi never missed an opportunity to kvetch to her mistress.

Darynn sulked, mumbling as she returned to the seemingly endless list of chores that still needed to be done. "She doesn't appreciate me at all!" whined the succubus, feeling sorry for herself. "Just because she's given up on love... it would be just and fair if karma made her fall in love with someone unsuitable...a gnome, perhaps, or a stuffy paladin!"

Darynn pondered as she folded laundry; at least the Mistress allowed her to use magic to do the washing, especially Tyanna's lingerie. Tyanna was the designer and owner of the best lingerie business in the Alliance, relocating her Silvermoon establishment to Stormwind after her transformation from Sin'dorei to Ren'dorei and subsequent exile. 

That gave the succubus an idea... perhaps karma could use an alchemical assist? Darynn recalled last year's Love is in the Air holiday, a celebration characterized by sweet flowers, perfume, and sharing gifts with loved ones. There had been a sinister plot is afoot involving some shady goblins - if that was not redundant - and some alchemically-altered perfumes and colognes; they made the wearer quite interested in... carnal adventures, freeing them from inhibitions and stoking their libdios to a white-hot frenzy. 

If only the plot hadn't been thoroughly crushed by a bad of adventurers... a bottle of that perfume would be just the thing to inspire Mistress Tyanna with the right attitude to be more appreciative of her own sayaadi. Darynn continued folding while giving it more thought. What she needed was to find the goblin alchemist who had created the perfume for the Crown Chemical Company.

Darynn had a good idea of who she might convince to help her, too...
