The eighteenth dawns with tents and make-shift pavilions being set up in the Water District. It’s a relatively small gathering but still sizable enough that it begins to draw a bigger crowd later in the day. At it’s peak, it may be about 200-250 Kedan wandering around the tents and displays. Some seem quite enthusiastic about the whole thing, others rather bewildered.

There’s a lot available to curious attendees, such as food, games, and, of course, little trinkets to sate rampant consumerism.

-Food stalls are everywhere with Kedanese cooks preparing your favourite meals from home (or reasonable facsimiles thereof. Or barely recognizable, in-name-only attempts).

-Yep, the Kedan officially have their own version of Real-People Fanfiction. Most of it is Foreigners going on adventures with various historical or mythological figures, or fairly tame speculative fiction about day-to-day lives back in the Foreigner’s worlds. But, of course, there’s always a few oddballs. Who do the Kedan ship your characters with?

-Some talented Kedan have sculpted figurines of of Foreigners (some of whom have come and gone) out of a resinous substance. These little figurines are surprisingly accurate.

-"Guest Speakers”, or more accurately, “unsuspecting Foreigners Kyde bribed or otherwise somehow managed to rope into answering Kedan questions”. Most are standard fair, what you would expect to get asked by people curious about whole other worlds, but there’s always weirdos with no filter.

- Trinkets and memorabilia from other worlds will be on sale. Is there something you want for your character from home that you want for them but is too mundane to bother spending AC on? Here’s your chance to get it. The rule of thumb here is that the item has to be fairly mundane (for example: a photo album, a treasured piece of jewelry, a toy, a favourite mug, a pet rock, their favourite brand of shampoo). If it’s magical or high tech in some way, it will still require an item request and the corresponding AC point percentage. Please note in the OOC thread below what your characters will be getting

-Yes, that does appear to be a body pillow.
