A river shall never run backward, and a person shall never recapture their youth. However, one should take every chance to showcase his or herself at their very best - Upon their most prime years. For when they succumb to the sands of time, they can look back in pride as yet another upstanding individual who made their mark.

 

The delegation of Yong Ping invites all to its first ever showcase. An expose set to shine a light upon the many talents of its younger populace. Set to last two dragon days. The first opening with various competitions that will set the tone for the second. A hunt with many stakes for those involved.

As Nicholas Arc ventures forth into the city alongside with his brother in search for the Monks, Nicholas happens to notice this posting and reads it over  "Aye, I'll be attending this event, gonna ask my Brother if he wants to." Nicholas said before moving out to find his Brother that is lost in the city.

Yunya of the Chen household looks upon the growing next generation of Chens, a thoughtful hum leaving her as she'd rock her newly born nephew with a warm smile offered his way. "Maybe some of your cousins could attend, hm?"

Tianrui Ren sips a cup of tea, looking over his itinerary for the day. With a hum, he makes note of the archery competition. A welcome distraction, one which he debates participating in- though he expects to be called in as a judge.

Oijin wishes the sciences were appreciated by the older generation as much as they liked hunting and origami and holds up in his lab while an alchemical worm travels through his gut.
