Midwinter Festival

Postby Copper Dragon » Tue Mar 28, 2017 5:38 pm

Midwinter Festival

You have heard it, you have seen it!

The smoke and fumes of the Daemonic Nightmare are past us;
the terrors and anguish of winter are lifted.

Gather! Rise! Cheer! Celebrants and entrepeneurs, artists and farmers,
embraced by the holy names of Ilmater and Lathander, and the goodly gods of
the Triad and Sune, we shrug off the yoke of the Year of the Wyvern.

Bring your wares and laugh and relief before the gods and fellow men,
at the City Square of Sarshel!

Join together in compassion and relief, not only in suffering and endurance.
Join us and meet these exceptional vendors:

MULLED WINE, SPICED WITH CINNAMON AND NUTMEG - THE FINEST OF VASSEUR'S WINES

Mariana Héidart ~ UNIQUE HANDCRAFTED NESTING DOLLS
HAVE YOU NOT ALWAYS WANTED YOUR LIKENESS CAPTURED?
WHY NOT ON A DOLL ~ WHY NOT IN SEVEN WAYS, ON SEVEN NESTED DOLLS?
Feast your eyes upon her handiwork right in action!

____________

Reipart Gotte ~ WOODCARVER OF SAINTS AND HOLY VISAGES
WE EACH PAY OUR RESPECTS TO THE GODS DIFFERENTLY.
BUT TO PRAY TO THEM THROUGH ICONS, WOODEN CARVINGS OF THE TRIAD,
IS THE ANCIENT STEADFAST TRADITION OF IMPILTURAN BLOOD.
____________

~GRIBO GUMFOOT~
TOYS, TRINKETS AND TAILORMENTS OF THE GREAT DALE
AND ELSEWHERE.

FEAST YOUR EYES ON BAUBLES AND WONDERS!
POP LAUGHTER FROM A BOX, THUNDER FROM A MARBLE!
____________

Only the finest wares all the way from Sembia and the Vast.

The celebrations will continue until Greengrass. Seize your chance!

~ Masked Ball ~

Besides the first notices about the Midwinter Festival, another advertisement makes its way through Sarshel's streets. Within a few days, word and flyers would also be carried to Outentown and the general proximity of Sarshel.
~ Masked Ball ~

To residents and visitors of the City of Faith,
you are openly invited to the most bedazzling event of this Spring!
A masked ball awaits you soon at lovely Jezebel's, city south,

with the worldly intent of sharing exquisite company
and the divine intent of fundraising.

We gather donations and gifts for the construction of
Lathander's first holy hall in the city, who will stand as bastion
for education, arts and all prosperous new beginnings.

Your requirements to join this lovely eve:
  • Entry fee of 25 sardils,
  • Refined appearance,
  • Mask (purchaseable at Annaliese's boutique, limited stock!)
    And your most outstanding self.
Delightful entertainers sought! Make haste to apply
and use this grand opportunity to introduce yourself to
Sarshel's extravagant circles of patrons and artlovers.
An envelop-enclosed invitation is sent specifically to a good dozen local enterprisers and their families; to households such as that of Staflemm, Lansk Dhalos, Mrs Pontek, Coretta Reen, Mr Tenmar, Mr Quietfoot and Lady Peveril of their shoppe, Ms Blackwing of the Golden Quill, and also to the Velvet Chantry of Songhall and the Naveric Estate of Sarshel:
My esteemed acquaintance,

You are cordially invited to this year's first - and with good hope, certainly not the last - festive arrangement.
Your intriguing self deserves to be exposed to a greater network, and an approach from a new angle.

It is my hope that you will join the occasion. We will know splendour, mystery and joy.

Your donation is not required, only heartfully appreciated. The funds will go to the renovation of the structure that will be the Morninglord's first-ever chapel in the City of Faith. May it be plain that contributors will be invited personally to its opening ceremony.

May your endeavours bring you and us all prosperity,

Artemis D'Assanthe, High Dawnlord.
Signed, 28th Chest 1364DR.



OOC: Currently still devising the best time for this, with the (potentially vain?) hope of organising the ball on 1 April 2017 (Saturday) Euro evening. Stay tuned! I will bump this thread when the time becomes more concrete. You can already think about your gorgeous gala outfit and mask... ;)

Donations received at the Masked Ball will go to the renovation
of the Halls of Prosperity. This location will serve as Lathander's first
chapel in Sarshel.

Donors & Guests:
*Anonymous
*Wynna Blackwing
*Abigail Beaumont
*Mersa Posht
*Ilia Preaux
*Mariana Hediart
*Coretta Reen
*Annaliese Meyer
*Braedon, brother of the Velvet Chantry
*Johlm Tenmar

*Lady Peveril
*Fenneken of the Flooded Forest

OOC: Aiming for 8pm British time on 1 April (Saturday). Arriving fashionably late is allowed. ;) The organiser is looking for donations for the Lathanderite temple. In the long term, the chapel will put its focus around the skills of Appraise, Diplomacy and Knowledge: Religion, ranging from supporting the creation of more shops, more public recreational places and art galleries, to gathering specialized information on undead and human faiths, and potentially selling potions and items that give a bonus to the above-mentioned skills.

As scheduled and agreed with Kelda and Artemis weeks before, Adorned Cassandra during the festival will help in the kitchen to prepare the meals, using the ingredients that arrived specifically for the event. She also studied many new Impuliturian recipes in the meatime, to offer people an experience of taste similar of those they're used to, but she'd also suggest and help to prepare some more exotic meals if someone wishes to taste them as well. She'd also check personally, along with other chefs or cooks called for the event, the quality of the dishes before they are served. More than taking the command, she'd cooperate with whoever was hired for the festival.
Her shy and humble nature would prevent her to participate at the ball itself, also because of the lack of a proper dress for such a classy place as Jezebel's. She'd prefere to remain behind the curtains in the shadows of humilty to serve, more than to be served.

Alistair, on the other hand will not loose the chance to participate to such a high-standing event in a nobiliar environment he feels very familiar and comfortable with.
