‘It’s important to be kind. You can’t know all the times that you’ve hurt people in tiny, significant ways.
It’s easy to be cruel without meaning to be. There’s nothing you can do about that. But you can choose to be kind. Be kind.’

We will all remember it, those who were there, and laugh to ourselves.

A gentle breeze ruffles your wings and whispers in your ears, as if for you alone, "Dragonfly's words shine... seeds, sown and tended, inspire... a forest harvest."

Maylea reaches out, Her fingers poised in midair. "Now you are of Me, even more than you were before." Her golden and azure eyes glitter. "Walk well, Eldin. Shed glory in My name, and bring life to the lifeless."
I'm so happy you could come to at least one of the festival days! Having both Lief and Elexia was really fun!

Romaan and Evette d'Rose in Solstice Cheer
Ornate and gaudy in turn, this massive painting bears the likeness of Romaan d'Rose and his wife, Evette d'Rose. Delicate brush strokes have been used to paint the people placed upon the canvas, with larger strokes and heavy paint used to create a festive snowy background. The normally dark merian scales that grace his likeness have been covered with an absolutely massive and fluffy solstice sweater. Likewise, Evette also has a sweater although hers is a touch slimmer, but decorated with essence filled gems that seem to glow, mimicking the appearance of cheerful solstice lights. Romaan and Evette hold each other tightly, soft easy smiles gracing both their faces, eyes crinkled at the edges as perfectly coiffed greying hair frames the both of them. Between them sits a chubby tae'dae child, black and white fur covered in drops of snow as they ignore the solstice cheer above them, rolling a snowball.
So many logs coming. I have a lot of cleaning up to do. Go figure I'd log in to get Fangleaf's description and wind up lost in the game for 8 hours LOL ahhh thank you everyonnneee!!!

The party was REALLY really fun. Thank you to everyone who came. To give you a rough idea of attendance: I had 32 baskets made for the first day, and 32 made for the second day, and at the end of yesterday I think I only have like, 6 baskets leftover? (nd a couple of those were re-gifted to me with their contents emptied LOL) Do you have any idea how awesome that is?!
Thank you everyone who came and partied with us Those who couldn't make it/weren't allowed to come, I'll keep slugging through these logs and get them posted ASAP!
Have a safe and festive holiday season! Thank you for letting my bug be part of your world ;~;

I am working on a Lief's edit of events from Day 2. Gurashi did an amazing job capturing everyone and everything, so mine will be much more Lief-focused for people curious about how an Avatar of Maylea fared in Nocht's territory. Some things have been totally cut to make it a little easier to read Lief's story (which was definitely not the only story happening that day).
This is the very end, starting with the turning of the day (so right when Viravain announced the song winner). There is Something Big that happened in Serenwilde as soon as Lief and Elexia left and has been a good excuse for me being scarce over the holidays.

This was so much (terrifying) fun! I'm so glad to have been able to experience it! I'm working on an edit of Elexia's Point-of-View for Day 2 as well, I'll try to have that posted sometime tomorrow! This Solstice was such a lovely event.

[I can't help but feel like this was all such a happy, amazing party, and am waiting for other scary/sad shoe to drop LOL]

A giant panda bounds into view, flanked by a gargantuan gorilla clad in golden plate armour. They both salute as the vision fades.
