Festivities

 

Day one : 

The first day of the celebration is mostly dedicated to farmer preparations and harvesting for the next winter. Face painting, apple bobbing, and pumpkin carving are just a few of the stalls and little games that will be set up across the area with their locally produced goods and merchandise. Enjoy the day, and please talk to any of the event hosts if you need lodging for the day; they will be able to provide it. If one would like to submit a treat for our spooky celebration we will have judges to judge the best spooky treat!

 

Day two : 

On the second day, we welcome  our returning visitors to tour Vikela's festive streets and its numerous vassals, whose lords and ladies we call to entertain and let them in for their own feasts and conversation. We allow the corruption to come out to play as the night falls and the sky becomes clear enough to see the stars. So that you might be as graceful and exquisite on the last night, let your Mischief side loose. As we travel to each territory to share spooky tales and crawl to each liquor offering all through the republic territories, don your mask and get your favorite beverage.

 

Day three :

Upon the third and final night of the festival, we invite visitors and citizens to a masquerade ball that shall be held in Vikela’s very own palace. The evening will be filled with festive music and dancing, and a costume contest will be held for guests who wish to dress up in costume. Food and drink will be provided for all that attend.

 

 

Costumes are encouraged, though not mandatory, on the first day of the festival. If a guest is unable to find a suitable costume, casual attire will do.

 

On the second day, casual attire may be worn to the event.

 

For the ball, on the third day, a formal dress code will be set in place, with the exception of costumes. Masks are highly encouraged for the masquerade theme, though they are not required.

A certain elfess was confuse at all the decorations. Not knowing it was prep for the festival. She loved it anyways.

A certain aged Mondblume sat saddened in her home in the cold north, "If only Ich had young legs again. It saddens me to miss such an event from mein once home." With a sad smile she went back to sewing the plush pumpkin to join the black cat.

Leika gaped at the cobwebs and ornaments that ran across the courtyard, her staff clicking against the cobble as she peeked about, “it seems they took quite the time to do all of this.. can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

Flour  with his costume on would be caught  up in the ribbons he set up wishing he was taller to reach the ground but happy he got to help decorate.

Vaen'lian would see this missive quite late then the rest. He smiles "Ooh- That's lovely!" he then sighs, knowing that he may have missed a lot of the current events at Vikela during his late time spent at the Mother Grove
