[EVENT] Moon and Mirrors (Welcome Mingle Log)

[khuimods]

Characters: ALL
Date: January 15
Location: At the Dreaming Bridge and all over Aifaran!
Situation: A large influx of Dreamfolk arrive in time for one of the Lunar Festivals, and they're all invited!
Warnings/Rating: N/A


A surprising amount of Dreamfolk have arrived within a short time frame - a peculiarity remarked upon by a number of Aifaran's residents. It is unusual in that it coincides with a lunar festival, one which only happens every fifty or so years.

Newcomers will find the streets packed with all sorts of people, stalls of fried and sugared foods, carnivalesque games and rides, and all other manner of things to do. Merchants are very keen to get their wares out there, and the stipend given may just burn a hole in your pocket when you see what's for sale.

Comments

[colonelnope]

Good move, kid. Eve notes the caution and approves of it, even if there's not room to explicitly acknowledge it. She lags behind him a little bit, taking advantage of slightly longer strides, and keeps her eyes roving as they pace.

It doesn't look like much. There's people, none acting especially shiftily, only those who are concerned and searching or confused and trying to figure out what everyone else is fussing about. If there's anything magical, Eve sure isn't seeing it.

"Usually magic at least has the decency to glow, where I'm from," she grouses eventually. "A magic expert is sounding like a better and better idea."

There really isn't much of anything to see, aside from the obvious distress of some people... which just digs all the deeper inside. At least walking around trying to get a roundabout idea how far away those who have been kidnapped so far have been from the building it all seems to have happened around means they walk further away from that distress...

And Eve's comment does at least startle a little bark of laughter out of him, flashing a brief little grin up at her.

"Oh, yeah. That'd be helpful. It sometimes does that where I'm from, too. Or have the letters the spell's made up of visible all over the thing that's enchanted. Hard to miss something like that."

Sometimes it was more subtle, too, of course, but he didn't linger on that.
