event one | Happy St. Patrick's D-- wait what?

[tsunderator]

CHARACTERS: Any and all!
DATE: April 1st~7th
RATING: PG at the worst, I suppose!
SUMMARY: Perhaps it's an April Fool's joke-- surely Saint Patrick's Day has already passed. And yet clovers rain down and the fountains run green regardless. But it's a nice welcome to The World regardless, so enjoy it while it lasts!


There's gold banners strung from rooftop to rooftop, catching the light of the eternally-setting sun and reflecting it every which way. The ground's already covered in a generous amount of fallen shamrocks, with no end in sight. They're in your hair, on your clothes, in your food-- everywhere!

The main fountain (as well as the smaller second fountain in the alchemy district) is running with fizzing green soda, glass mugs lined up along the edges invitingly. New characters will receive one of two items-- in the first half of the week, they'll be awarded a limited edition golden weapon to suit their class, adorned in emeralds. In the latter half (for later applicants), they'll receive a leprechaun hat. The size is entirely up to the player, so it can range from a cute, small hat a la lolita style, or a big floppy hat, or a dapper silk top hat.

Have a look around, meet others, and enjoy the Irish foods offered for free at NPC shops to go with the soda. All items earned are to stay!



There's even a young silver-haired GM dolled up in green silks at the quest kiosk available for questions, although he doesn't look particularly friendly. His body language says to Stay Away, despite his location right in the upper left corner of the town center.

( ooc | Please remember to tag your characters properly, and have fun! )

...that has no meaning to me, I'm afraid. It was the Yanzi Era under the reign of my Lord.

[inhearts]

...I think the China that Jiang-san comes from is different from the one I know.

[dragonsjaw]

As unbelievable as this seems...I cannot disagree with that conclusion. [ this place was simply too different from anything he'd ever seen. ]

How will we return to where we belong under such circumstances?

[inhearts]

There's got to be a way out! We just need to find it!

[dragonsjaw]

Indeed, to fail is not an option. Do you have any recollection of how you arrived here, Lady Arisato?

[inhearts]

Nope. I haven't seen any of my friends either, even though I was with them before I came here. Is it the same for you?

[dragonsjaw]

I was alone before I was transported here, I have no recollection of anything that could have triggered my arrival here...

[inhearts]

[ An idea occurs to Minako and she's ... going to pinch herself. with her free hand. ]

...Ow! Okay, it's not a dream.

[ & she takes another sip from her cup. ]

[dragonsjaw]

[ he...cracks a smile?!!! ]

I admit the possibility occurred to me. But I don't believe myself capable of dreaming up such an elaborate world.

[inhearts]

My dreams are usually more blue or green. Smaller, too!

Have you looked around this area yet, Jiang-san?

[dragonsjaw]

...more green than this? [ he picks at some fallen shamrocks sticking to his clothes. ]

No, I have not. I suppose this entire experience has been overwhelming.

[inhearts]

[ She looks up at the sky almost contemplatively, nodding before she looks down again. ] It's alright! I'm still searching, myself. If I come across anything, I'll let you know!

[dragonsjaw]

I would be indebted to you, Lady Arisato. [ he bows gratefully. ]

[inhearts]

[ She returns it! ] Then, please take care of yourself, Jiang-san!

[dragonsjaw]

And you as well, Lady Arisato.

[inhearts]

I'll see you around. Bye-bye!

[ Waving, she leaves. ]
