Issued on the 11th day of Dragon's Roar, 643 AA

HEED, LEAL SONS OF HOREN AND FRIENDS OF THE FAE!

The Children of the Empire, in their boundless wonder and imagination, have deemed it most fitting to host a festival in honor of the fae who dwell among the wood, brook, and blossoms. To celebrate the mischief and mirth they bring to our lands, a day of enchantment is to be hosted within the confines of Reinmar’s gardens, courtesy of the Lady Johanna Barclay.

THE  FANTASTICAL FESTIVITIES

 

FAERIE HOUSEMAKING  | ✶

Children in attendance will fashion tiny dwellings worthy of the woodland spirits. They shall be instructed in the art of arranging twig and petal, so that each miniature cottage may be offered to the fae who reside within our Imperium.

 

PIN THE WING ON THE FAERIE  | ✶

Blindfolded champions will attempt to restore a wayward wing to its rightful place on a mannequin faerie, guided only by guesswork and gleeful counsel from the crowd. 

 

GARDEN TREASURE HUNT  | ✶

Winding through hedge and flowerbed, clever eyes and nimble feet will search for hidden charms, tokens, and other such associated treasures among the greenery, as if the fae themselves had scattered gifts for the festival attendees to discover. 

 

ENCHANTED MAZE | ✶

A maze woven of illusion and greenery, wherein pathways twist and turn in mysterious and mystical ways, awaits guests who dare to wander into its depths to discover the mysteries therein. 

 

A DELIGHTFUL DESSERT STAND | ✶

Faerie-themed pastries provided by the Ducal House of d’Amaury will be offered to all in attendance. The dessert stand, laden with pastries crowned in shimmering pixie dust, shall stand at the forefront of the festivities, sweetening the event with sugar and whimsy.

 

FAERIE JOUSTING | ✶

Jousting, an ever-beloved sport within the Imperium, shall adopt a new, most whimsical iteration upon this day – faerie jousting. The contest will proceed thus: brave contenders will mount a single floating log set upon gentle waters armed with shovels and courage. Each contender will strive to unseat the other, and in doing so, provide a spirited display of good humored merriment for both faerie and imperial alike to witness.

Lady Junco Altwegg peered over the invitation the Lady Eirene shared with her. It would certainly be a great bit of fun! The faerie dust she extorted out of her father, too, would come in handy.

Ilse peered over the missive. A brow raised as she straightened the parchment in hand, correcting it within her digits to be sure she read correctly.

 

" . . Did one of these Ladies not have a Fae's wings torn off? Surely this must be some lure."

[arxchn0ph0bia 62]

A wandering hedge Knight had gently torn the missive from one of its many pinned locations, reading over it. His brows raised as he observed the final words and titles of those who signed and stamped with such pride.

 

“It is quite interesting that mankind thinks they can be friends with the fae, let alone proclaim themselves ‘Queen’ and ‘Ambassador’. The fae realm is not your home.. Yet here you ladies are.”

 

The ginger concluded his monologue by crumpling the missive, seeing no purpose in preserving it.

As much as that redheaded Halcourt, Roswyn, did despise Reinmar... perhaps it might well be a good chance for her daughters to meet more children their own age.

"Wynith, Mereva," She chimed towards her daughters, "Might you wish to attend a festival of the fae?"

"Do you think there'll be old men trying to aura-post on us again, Eirene?" asked the second child, Johanna, to her co-conspirator Eirene. "Surely not," she giggled and continued to scribble.

"They simply won't, because I am the most awesome faerie-queen in existence," the author of the missive, a mere six years old, sagely proclaimed. EIRENE resumed the construction of her grand faerie-queen costume, blissfully unaware of those who lacked joy and whimsy.

Caius, Johanna's greatest friend, cheered for her silly endeavors, "Woo good job Johanna this is great and fun good work yeah-ehh!"

Castien looks at the angry, angry one year old in his care.

 

Maybe this will finally make it smile... why doesn't this kid ever smile... is his home that poorly decorated... (it is)
