[EVENT] Bonfire Night
Characters: ALL!
Date: February 21st
Location: Various.
Situation: It’s cold. Time to cuddle up and make bonfires for the warmth.
Warnings/Rating: Add warnings as needed.
As night falls the city’s lights take something of a unique turn. Instead of being lit by millions of paper lanterns, Keeliai is tonight lit by the flames and warmth of dozens if not hundreds of fires. Some of them are small, not much more than warming hearths in a barrel on a street, but others encompass squares and boulevards.
The fire lighting procession winds through the city’s streets, beginning at the first bonfire in Fire Sector. By the time full night has arrived, that procession is a snake illuminated by dozens of torches, parting from the main parade to light smaller fires in smaller streets. It ends, finally, in Central, in the Courtyard of Public Opinion, whose bonfire is second only to the initiating one in Fire Sector.
In some areas an exchange of goods arises, mostly in terms of woollens and other warm clothes and blankets. Though food is considered a public resource on this occasion, bartering small knickknacks, songs, stories and even other woollen items is not uncommon an exchange.
Meals are shared among kedan and Foreigners, commoners and emissaries--primarily stews, soups and other foods easily baked in the coals of the fires. Everyone brings food, and what isn’t contributed to the pot is nevertheless shared around after preparation. Although some bonfires are markedly wealthier than others, food and shelter is spread around to make sure everyone is safe and warm. No one goes cold and alone on this night.

Fire Sector (main bonfire) | Water Sector | Metal Sector | Earth Sector | Wood Sector | Central Keeliai
OOC Notes
The five Bresilykian emissary NPC can be found moving from Sector to Sector and partaking in the various traditions of each, and so can be engaged anywhere, while the Keeliai NPCs generally are staying in their respective areas as detailed below. Please put the name of the NPC you're requesting in the subject line of your tag if you want to interact with them. Thank you!

"It must depend, yes. So far, I wouldn't say I've seen a leader who I'd join up for, but the other men are...I would say that's fair enough. The brotherhood I'm part of speaks to the ideal, at least."
no subject
And the incompetents hadn't lasted long, either. Unfortunately not many of the competent ones did either; Skulduggery was fortunate in that regard ... from one perspective.
no subject
"That is...it is not the reasons that I joined my order, but it is the reason that I stayed, when I came to understand it all. Well, all that I was allowed to understand. That, I can completely understand."
Arno wasn't completely sure how he felt about the council these days. They had had points, the last time he'd seen them, but they did seem a bit...narrow-minded somehow.
"The threat of world subjugation is entirely too familiar, isn't it? A pity one world's solution for that, cannot carry through."
no subject
Very far from easy, but simple, yes. There were many times Anton felt that people equated the two, and that equating the two was the cause behind the willing blindness of those who pretended everything was fine. Few things that were simple were also easy, but by expecting it, people set themselves up to dismiss it.
no subject
His frown deepens a little now, considering what he has learned about just who those pushing for revolution, beyond the peasants, are.
"When the proposed solution to ending tyranny is to establish another tyranny, right under the noses of those who would give their support, it becomes harder too. Not impossible, and certainly, the right thing, but finding enough who care..." He shook his head, sighing a little. "Well, one surely has their work cut out for them in such a circumstance, I would say."
no subject
The Hotel didn't precisely take that role, but it was a place where those with no voice could go and not be judged. The only drawback was that it did mean Anton had to treat with his enemies as he did his friends, but that was a matter of self-respect more than it was politics.
no subject
"That WAS a good thought, yes." He added, nodding at the mention of the hotel. "Neutral ground, and such things as that, and a place you can be free to say whatever you will, with no fear you'll get a blade in your back for the trouble I think it's serving as a few things in that vein quite nicely."

Suddenly Arno was snorting as a certain picture came to mind.
"Oh. Ohhhh. Blond and unusually somber, yes?" He answered, trying to look very serious and failing at it rather badly. "Well we haven't met officially, exactly but if it's the man I'm thinking of, we've traded snowballs."

"And you, Monsieur Shudder." The grip felt like Bellec's, he thought. Straightforward, for the most part, and like he'd tell the truth no matter what the circumstances. "I hope whatever comes here finds you well, or at least, well enough."
