Since the play premiere is done, I can reveal to those who didn't guess already that yes - that song is written from the point of view of Marani Veloske, the White Priestess of Shallamurine, who if raised will actually use her song to attack the Basin.
Raves for Magnagora (especially @Sapphira, @Uzriel, @Shango, @Kailanna, @Vexacion) for the opening ceremonies to the Bloodfaire, and for dealing with a gaggle of rowdy Gaudiguchians. I hope we weren't too overwhelming for you all. I'm really excited for the upcoming events, and it is really clear that you all put a lot of work and thought into this. It's incredible, and I'm happy to be able to participate!
Raves for Gaudiguch (especially @Eritheyl, @Rekath, @Kihr, @Yire) for "being on our best behavior", which apparently includes trying to purchase Shango! It was so much fun just being part of that gaggle, and partaking in all of the various goodies. It felt so Gaudi with us just buying souvenirs and trying everything out, heh!
Oh! And for all of the neat things for sale! The candy and parasol especially are super cool! Raves for the admins involved for coding them!
Honestly, super super thrilled by the turnout today. @Kailanna did a wonderful job with the opening speech and it was so great to have a bunch of outsiders come to visit, and appreciate all our little trinkets. Definitely lots of fun to be had through the week, please come and play with us!
+1 on raving to the admins/ephs for the events tonight. They really went the extra mile with descriptions and left us with a lot to think about. Firica, Nifilhema (I've never been so terrified about a woman looking at me), Jemriaee, and Mebyra were super fun to watch.
Also raving on @Kailanna for keeping everybody together and an excellent negotiation, @Sapphira for sass, @Uzriel for helping me out (I really need to get the teleport skill), and @Akyaevin for the side bit with Danalnys (very briefly) becoming an undead for the first time--sorry it didn't stick, blame the ghosts.
Just wanted to give a big shout out to the Admins running the Halli event today! Obligatory "sorry" for being dumb mortals and thanks for your patience, I really enjoyed and appreciated the experience, and it was obvious that a lot of effort was put into it. Special kudos for the smoothness of the event (despite some people trying to get into where they shouldn't have, haha) and prodding us along where needed. Can't wait to see what happens next!
Along the same line as Qillilitli, I just wanted to put a rave on the forums (not just on discord) about the incredible effort the admin put in running not one, not two, but three concurrent RP events!
I know there haven't been many events in Hallifax and Gaudiguch lately, so the attention is very much appreciated.
