Gyaru gnome and doll

In the tropical islands of Benessa, a secluded gnome creator is enjoying her sabatical year-long vacation since she was relieved of her obligations as the royal mage of the empire.

Settling in a isolated island deep in the archpelagum, she could finally do all the things she wasn't allowed at the capital: she weared the clothes she wanted, drank without worrying if she would be too drunk to attend an emergency and most importantly, relaxed for the whole day, sunbathing in a place all for herself.

Naturally, once she got her deserving vacation after decades of service to the throne, she took her doll servants to the island. Of course she wouldn't do any menial tasks! She already worked her ass off so far, and her servants were going to guarantee she didn't need to care about sweeping the ground, replenish the food or take the mail (she still had a mailbox, but out of view, in another island). Her attention was in pursuing the perfect pinã colada!

However, one of her greatest successes - a conscious talking doll - went to a neighbor island to buy supplies and found a weird pamphlet: "hot minos in your area" it said, with a message to visit the local tavern for "casual encounters".

The doll tried to argue that would be a good opportunity to learn more about social cues and how adults interact with each other - even though the gnome knew what kind of "interactions" her aloof assistant will be learning there.

Once she waved an answer, the doll immediately run to prepare the boat, determined to the teaching lessons said minotaurs were going to teach her. But then, an idea ocurred to her.

She didn't get a night's out in 4 decades!

The gnome abandoned her drinks and as the doll was about to depart, she jumped in the boat, with a renewed vigor who surprised her creation.

"Let's go find these hot minos and what they're hiding from us!"

As you all might guessed, this one maybe will have a sequel XD But I think this short story as an introduction works too. 😎
