Hurray for Cysaegir!

This festival is for prime only. The aelotoi shop with the back pendants from the August contest will be opened for a time in plat, though!

Don't worry, they won't be eating any under ripe persimmons! The fruits have astringent and non-astringent varieties, but the focus of this fest won't be on harvesting persimmon fruits, just celebrating the general autumn harvest.

I thought the persimmon tree would serve as a good overall symbol of bounty. The tree would be appreciated on Bre'Naere because the wood/fruit/flowers have a wide variety of uses, the trees are quick to grow and have a strong root system, and the fruit lasts quite a while when dried. Those qualities would definitely come in handy in the harsh environment they lived in before Elanthia.

Former SGM Lyredaen wanted the pronunciation to be SIS-uh-geer. This is the way I still say it, and we consider this pronunciation to be the official version.

A long time ago, during a radio broadcast at Simucon, a couple of GMs called it KISS-uh-geer. I think some people still go with that version, though it's not the original pronunciation.

Inorite??

>>Any chance we could get a teaser of some of the shops and dare I hope merchants will be coming to the festival? also inquiring minds would like to know if there will be anything focused on the citizens of Cysaegir? I only remember one citizen only event and because I don't have wings it didn't apply to me ;(

Ten new autumn-themed scents (including a few manly ones).

A red-bearded bright green goblin begins to run around in circles faster and faster. When he stops suddenly, he begins to stagger around as if he had just gotten back from the Stone Eye.

This fest will likely be a bit smaller than some of the other ones you guys have seen, but it should still be fun!

This festival is geared more toward aelotoi, so I don't think there will be anything specifically citizen focused.

I will be raffling off a set of custom nail polish, and two signature verbs. And, I made an aelotian clothing shop with items for males and females, and also another shop with hair flowers.

We do have other merchants, raffles, and shops planned, but they'll have to post if they want to share anything! Otherwise, think of it as a surprise.

~Galene

Do you like raffles? How about this little item?


Speaking in Aelotian, Kynlee asks something you don't understand.

You attach an iridescent mother-of-pearl earcuff to your ear, and a feeling of understanding comes over you.

Speaking in Aelotian, Kynlee asks, "Don't you want to know what we're always saying?"

I'm a little irritated, but only a little, mind, that the light run of Coraesine is going on at the same time as this since I want to do both. Of course, my local Renn Faire starts Saturday too. It's going to be a busy week.

So....

What time are the shops going to open? The usual 9 PM Elven?

Since we're feeling the spirit of teasers, how about this little tidbit that will be available in my upcoming Persimmon Festival shop?

>Kaelfin shows you a topaz-patterned sage green tunic secured with braided leather down the side, which he is holding in his right hand. The green tunic is crafted of wool, and the back appears to have a pair of slits.

1st Tier

Kaelfin slips on a topaz-patterned sage green tunic secured with braided leather down the side, shrugging a pair of slits in the wool around his glimmering topaz-veined wings.

Kaelfin slips off a topaz-patterned sage green tunic secured with braided leather down the side, shrugging a pair of slits in the wool from around his glimmering topaz-veined wings.

Kaelfin shrugs his shoulders, twisting slightly in the green tunic to adjust the fit of a pair of slits around his glimmering topaz-veined wings.

2nd Tier

Kaelfin passes his hand over his green tunic, smoothing out a wrinkle in the wool and folding his glimmering topaz-veined wings behind him.

Kaelfin tugs at his green tunic, twitching his glimmering topaz-veined wings as he settles the wool comfortably around him.

3rd Tier

Kaelfin folds his arms quietly, tapping one finger idly against the wool of his green tunic.

Kaelfin strikes a nonchalant pose, spreading his glimmering topaz-veined wings casually.

There are a few more tricks that they can do, but I wouldn't want to spoil all the surprises, right?

I've added a cart of scripted skirts and gowns to one of the rooms in Linsandrych Common! Zanthie will be around to alter stuff and unlock the gowns/skirts at some point, too!
