Society of the Rhyming Dove

The Society of the Rhyming Dove was a secret society made up of poets who dressed up as doves, native to the Prime Universe.

Nature

They were not dimensionally-active or otherwise scientifically-advanced, but seemed to genuinely perceive their lives in verse; other metafictional beings could affect the versified narration the Rhyming Doves inhabited, causing them great distress. (PROSE: Multiversal Mischief) The Society were staunch allies of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies)

History

The Society of the Rhyming Dove was one of the many Strangely-Colored Secret Societies formed as a result of the First Horde laying off large numbers of its personnel and imperfectly wiping their minds of their time as Horde operatives, giving them a subconscious itch to form new, similar societies.

The Society was friendly with another eccentric organisation, the Ennead of the Eigengrau Easter Eggs. In April 2021, they planned to invite the Eggs round for a feast. Three days before, however, on April the 1st, they received a gag “present” from the Faction of the Fooling Fish: a box containing the talking dog Astro, who disturbed the balance of their verses, although they eventually befriended him before sending for a member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids to take Astro home.
