Event | Sinbrilee | Bacchanal

Characters: Any and all!
Date: August 24 - 30th
Location: Sinbrilee
Situation: An ancient festival of an ancient city, all are welcome at the Bacchanal!
Warnings/Rating: Please label threads as appropriate.

Death and destruction cannot curtail the single most important festival celebrated by the denizens of Sinbrilee: The Bacchanal! The ghosts in and about the city have begun to gossip about high fashion and festivities, sending any that inquire to the Amphitheatre -- a grand, circular structure nestled in the west side of the city.

This structure bore the fall of Sinbrilee and the wear of time with dignity, having lost handfuls of archways and one long stretch of wall to crumbling decay. Despite this, it is obvious that the amphitheatre once hosted many a display and every more festivities than the mind can grasp. This was their solace and safety; here is where the people of Sinbrilee came to find the mind's escape from all that threatened them and their great turtle.

Ghosts have been busy throughout the week, clearing paths through debris and hanging great cloth banners of soft blues and greens to disguise the more blatant signs of its decline. Many hundreds of them shimmer and slid through the area, providing for tables upon tables of food, offering drink, and overseeing competition of sport and skill (some even denying death's non-corporeal curse to enter).

Here, well... Here is where the party begins!

"You better let me know when it opens." He chuckles, gesturing sharply with his hand. If her offerings were half as good as the stuff she'd brought over when he first arrived, the girl shouldn't have anything to worry about.

"Might wanna get someone to help you with the book keeping though. At least give you a rundown on how a Ledger works or somethin." Greed added casually.

"My goal is to have it open in time for the full harvest moon." You know, moon viewing festival and all that jazz. She's hoping that her cooking skills in this world will have improved by then since she's still trying to get the ingredients to resemble something she's more familiar with. There's also the actual setting up part.

"Ah...well I can sort of do that, I lived by myself before coming here so I had to balance a budget...but that's probably a little bit different. I guess it might be a bit of a work load for just one person too..." and doing the math isn't her favorite thing in the world.

He just looks at her for a while. After all, to him seeing the moon isn't that big a deal. And he's definitely never heard of their being a celebration based around it. Finally he blurts out "There's a party for looking at the moon?" Raising a brow at her with dry curiosity.

At this she'll laugh and shake her head looking very humored by the response. "Well usually it's very quiet, but I'm not going to demand it. But yeah, there's a festival that celebrates looking at the moon called Tsukimi. It's probably archaic, but what we do is we decorate an alter with autumn plants and we put together an offering display made of pumpkin, chestnuts, potato, and moon dumplings...we offer all of this to the moon. Some say it's supposed to bring happiness and good fortune...but it's really just a way to admire the beauty of the moon and to celebrate a good harvest. We also get to hear stories about the rabbit on the moon!"

The whole thing would have sounded a lot more boring if she hadn't mentioned that they served food. He'd never heard of a moon dumpling either but now he was curious to find out what they were like. "Well I can't remember if I've heard about a moon rabbit before, but I guess I wouldn't mind lookin at the moon if there's food involved." He commented and let out a short laugh.

Fortunately she doesn't plan on enforcing the traditions, she'll just provide the food and the atmosphere. It's a gimmick after all...for her it's strategy, or as close to strategic as it gets. "I'll probably have some kind of beverage too, but it's nice to know I can count on you if you're not busy."
