tilly 5115 Share Posted February 18, 2025 ✚ AN ✚ ✚ WITH FRIENDS ✚ “PETRA, FLOWING WATER! AVE! AVE!” [!] Penned on stationary embossed with the seal of the River Court. [!] Spoiler NOTE: THIS IS A PRIVATE INVITATION SENT ONLY TO THE PEOPLE LISTED IN THE SPOILER BELOW. FONDEST FRIENDS, It is with great pleasure and the warmest of hearts that I, Princess Mattea Asadha of the Petra, invite you to join me for an exquisite High Tea at the Citadel, in the beloved capital city of Vallagne. In the spirit of refinement and conviviality, you are welcome to grace this occasion with one guest of your own choosing. Kindly bring, in addition, your favorite spirit or wine and a cherished snack that sings to your soul, so that together we may indulge in the tastes and traditions that make our respective realms so uniquely splendid. Our tables shall be adorned with a sumptuous selection of Aevosi teas, including the floral elegance of Celestial Jasmine from Celia’nor, the smooth allure of Velvet Oolong from Koyokuni, and the invigorating warmth of Petra’s own Sunrise Chamomile. Complementing these fine brews will be an array of delectable finger foods: for savory hors d'oeuvres, delight in the delicate Rose Petal Canapés, the crisp Golden Saffron Arancini, and the refined Smoked Trout Crostini; for desserts, savor the sweetness of Honeyed Almond Brittle, the enchanting Vanilla Bean Petit Fours, and the sumptuous Fig and Walnut Phyllo Rolls. Intermittently, our gathering shall be enlivened by delightful parlor games designed to spark conversation and camaraderie — games such as The Name Game, and Whispered Secrets. It is my earnest hope that you will take this opportunity to forge new and lasting relationships, speaking with those whose paths you have yet to cross, as we celebrate the vibrant tapestry of the gathered company. I eagerly await the honor of your presence at this most delightful of get-togethers! [Instructions for the games were included on the back of the invitation.] Spoiler The Name Game: In this delightful icebreaker, each guest is invited to introduce themselves with an alliterative epithet that captures a facet of their personality or station (e.g., “Magnificent Mattea” or “Eccentric Earl Eric”). Once all have spoken, participants will then be challenged to recall the creative descriptors of their fellow attendees. This game encourages both attentive listening and a lighthearted sharing of one’s identity, setting the stage for new connections to be forged over the artful play on words. Whispered Secrets: This game is designed to foster familiarity and trust among guests. Participants form a circle, and one person chosen at the hostess’s behest begins by whispering a delightful, perhaps humorous secret or a personal anecdote — nothing too scandalous, mind you! — to their neighbor on the left. That neighbor then whispers what they heard to the next, and so on, until the secret has traveled around the entire circle. At the end, the original secret is revealed, and comparisons are made between the original and the final iteration, sparking laughter and gentle conversation about the nature of communication and memory — and how it may have affected history in much similar ways. With earnest excitement and anticipation, HER HIGHNESS, Mattea Asadha, Princess of the Petra, Countess of the Phoenixsphere, Grand Chamberlain of the River Court ≋▐ TEMESCH OF THE PETRA ▌ ≋ PRIVATE INVITATIONS HAVE BEEN SENT TO THE FOLLOWING VIA COURIER: Spoiler [Thursday, February 20th @ 7:30PM EST] KING THERIN I OF THE PETRA @Tremerus Dowager Prince-Consort Asad of the Petra @Hom Prince Zamir of the Petra @YaBoyJay_ Prince Khasef of the Petra @wardyn Lord Symon Stafyr @foxxo Lady Charlotte Auclair @Chamoi Lord Mayor Guillaume Auclair @_RoyalCrafter_ Lord Lian of Astor @Vic Lord Jun of Astor @lillyeveans Mister Vilcor Entrati @sawn132 Princess Nadya of Haense @sarahbarah Queen Kathryn of Balian @MapleSunflower Tar Anorhil of Numendil @Nooblius Sir Clemens von Theonus @Deets Lord Capric Reinhold @StingyParrot Mister Livius Flavius @Mena Isana the Bard @Rosey Lady Evelina Valkonen @Emmmm Lady Ragna Valkonen @SekaiAmber Bishop Alaric @Lortime Lord Robert Ludovar @Wavey Lady Lorelei Amelya of Enswerp @mothsthetic Mister Caz the Tavernkeep @Hom Lady Acelia Colborn @Smol Lady Auris Vourkehardt @Tainga Lady Johanna Vuiller @TaraJess Randuinn @Salium 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
