If the Melusine asked for help sticking cute stickers around the Fortress of Meropide without Wriothesley finding out, I'd choose some clever hiding spots to add a touch of whimsy while minimizing the chance of detection:
-
Behind the Tapestries: Tuck small stickers behind ornate tapestries in the grand hall. When people walk by, they’ll get a fun surprise during a closer look.
-
On the Guardrails of the Staircases: Place tiny, colorful stickers on the underside of bannisters. They’ll be hidden from view unless someone kneels down to examine them.
-
Inside Books in the Library: Slip stickers between the pages of lesser-used books. A delightful find for anyone who happens to open them up!
-
Underneath Tables in the Dining Hall: Stick some cute images under the main dining tables. The seated guests will have their frowns transformed into smiles upon discovery.
-
In the Crevices of Stone Walls: Place flat stickers in the crevices of stone walls where curious eyes might not naturally wander.
-
Inside the Drawers of Desks: Put fun stickers inside the desk drawers of various officers or administrators. It will brighten their day when they reach for supplies.
-
Near the Entrance of Secret Passages: A small sticker near the entrance to secret passages can act as a cute marker for those in the know, while remaining hidden from others.
-
On the Backs of Portraits: If there are portraits hanging in the fortress, attach stickers to the backs. An unexpected surprise for those brave enough to take them down!
In every corner of the Fortress of Meropide, I’d ensure the stickers are placed with care, adding a little slice of joy without alerting Wriothesley to our playful rebellion!
