The Great Garden Party was an incident which occurred in the latter part of the Silver Millennium and resulted in what was called the greatest diplomatic series of agreements in the history of the Solar System.

The Event

The incident began during what had been a routine gathering of all the queens of the Solar System at the Garden Manor of the Moon. They had been invited at the behest of Queen Serenity to settle a series of trade and diplomatic issues. Food and drink had been provided as was protocol. To make things move just a bit more easy for the rulers and to prevent any unneeded pressure, Queen Serenity herself did not take part in the talks.

At first, talks seemed to be going fairly smoothly, if a bit tense. After an hour of these discussions, a break was called for food and drink. It was at that point that Queen Minerva of Quinox started to pass out alcohol from her own planet to help and "loosen things up." It wasn't long after that that Minerva made a rather crude joke aimed towards Queen Thetis of Neptune, who took offense. The verbal fight escalated when, perhaps against her better judgement, Queen Maia of Mercury stepped in to voice her displeasure at Minerva's show of crudeness. Minerva took that as an insult and threw a drink in Maia's face, who lost her temper and lunged for Minerva. Minerva grabbed Maia in a headlock and suplexed her into a nearby table. Queen Aphrodiate of Venus tried to throw a punch towards Minerva but, Nike of Mars got in the way and took the hit in the face, sending her crashing into a food table. Incensed by this, Nike grabbed a bowl of punch and threw it at Aphrodiate, which soaked the Queen to the skin. Aphrodite attempted to throw a pastry at Nike, but the woman ducked, causing the food to hit the face of Queen Shinju of Jupiter, who was approaching to try and stop the fighting. The force of the throw sent the Jovian Queen stumbling backwards and bumping into Queen Thetis, who was sent flying out the second story window and landing in the water fountain below face first. It was at this point that Queen Minerva declared a war and the entire room descended into chaos. Some additional highlights included: Queen Veruka of Uranus being thrown through a door, her head getting stuck through the structure. A rather rough fight of hair pulling and biting between Aphrodiate and Nike. Thetis's second attempt to join the fight, only to end up being thrown through the window once more and back into the fountain. Minerva attempting to use Maia as a bludgeon against Shinju only for the woman to instead head-butt her in the skull. Reports state that Empress Jenn of Saturn for her part sat through the entire fight managing somehow to dodge every attack and kept her cool, if slightly inebriated. About an hour later, Queen Chie of Eden and Queen Inazami of Nemesis arrived (having been delayed) and according to them, found Minerva of Quinox standing in the middle of a wrecked room, being scolded by Jenn, as the woman proclaimed that she had taken the strength of her opponents.

Aftermath

After an evening sleep, having been removed from the room with the help of servants, many of the royals woke up the next day with horrible hangovers as well more then a few bruises and injuries. Still, they returned to the diplomatic table and within less then twenty minutes, managed to hammer out a new treaty among each other creating an even stronger bond through the Solar System based off trade. It also strengthened some of the bonds more then a few royals had with one another. For the most part, there were no ill will from the fight, other then a few mean spirited jokes which would be spoken among each other. It also helped to cement Empress Jenn as a calming force in the Solar System royals.
