Who: Everyone!
When: Evening
Where: The Arts and Trade Enclave
What: Grand Opening of the Enclave! Elected Vice Council members are announced! Not to mention, there’s a par-tay!

Tonight was the night for the Grand Opening of the Arts and Trade Enclave. After many careful months of renovating the original buildings located near the tip of the northern mountains, it was completed at last. What was once an old village had been turned into an enclave for learning and the arts, which had been deemed important by the Head Council for the community of Elysium. The public lacked a place to pursue their love of the arts and finer crafts, and now it was made possible for them with supplies, teachers, and more. It was one of the finest ideas for the haven’s people. Hopefully, it would come to fulfill the extra needs of the citizens.

As for the party itself, they had gone all out for the occasion. Gold and white ribbons decorated everything from the doors to the windows to the eaves of the roof, and everyone was dressed up for the occasion. Both inside and outside of the building, there were long tables dedicated to serving snack foods and beverages to the attendees. The ballroom was open, serving as a dance floor for the evening with live music, and even the patio beyond was lit by glowing lanterns and a full crowd of mingling people.

The party had been going on for no more than thirty minutes so far when it was time for the Head Council to announce the elected members of Vice Council. The music ceased temporarily out on the patio as the three of them made an appearance on the stage in place of the entertainment for the evening.

( “Welcome, everyone!” Dylan announced with a smile. )

Who: Adio and Freya [Log]
When: Late Night
Where: At his cottage, on his roof
What: Two people unintentionally take a sad Christmas and make it better


( You were made to go out and get her. The minute you let her under your skin. Then you begin to make it better. )

OOC: Besides lyrics, italics are mindspeak

Who: Freya and Adrienne
When: Afternoon
Where: The Stables
What: Going for a ride with someone new..

Freya had to admit the stable was an area she was growing attached to. For some reason horseback riding, though something she was unfamiliar with was a fun thing for her to do at least three times a week and would for some reason ease her headaches. Most likely it was because her company was her favorite horse that she had named Casper. She had no idea why, she just liked the name. She was certain it had like ten thousand names, but the horse actually responded to the name she had given it, so that was a good sign. It was also extremely kind towards her and followed her every command. She needed a horse such as Casper since she was inexperienced and didn’t need a horse knocking her to her behind.

She was getting her horse saddled up when she could have sworn she heard someone else in the stables. When she cautiously looked around and discovered someone else in the area she smiled shyly. She hadn’t really met too many people since her arrival so she wasn’t certain if everyone was as welcoming as Adio. “Do..” She cleared her throat since her voice was very soft when she began to speak.

“I was.” She pointed back to her horse, pretty much ready to go for her riding session. “I was getting ready to for me ride for the day. Would you like to join me?” Sometimes it was awfully lonely riding by ones self.

Who: Adio (Sanura in the beginning) and Freya
When: Evening into late night
Where: Adura Home to Wine bar..annnddd back to Adura home
What: Adio and Sanura have a huge fight and part ways. Adio/Drinking does not mix. Time for a babysitter!


Adio had set his guitar in his lap as he looked over to Sanura who wore a very mournful look on her face. He trailed a finger down the strings that were wearing down, the clang of the strumming an obvious sign that the strings were way overdue for a change. His eyes found their way to the floor before he drew out a breath in sign of speech.

"...You seem upset.." He mentioned obviously. Often he would do that instead of asking the obvious question of 'Are you okay?'. He noticed she was sitting at the opposite side of the room, Indian style and was rummaging through a big box. Adio set his guitar aside and went to move to see if Sanura was okay.

Sanura looked back at Adio with a face that was near as vicious as a tiger. Teeth were tightened and her lip was raised as her nails grazed through the box.

( Don't you know what today is? )

Who: Freya and Amada (....then Zane!)
Where: In town, near the ceramics shop
When: Early evening
What: Meeting, discussing wedding stuff, dinner?

She and Zane had plans to meet for dinner in town tonight to discuss the plans that Amada had made for the wedding so far, but with time to kill she'd decided to head that way a few hours early. One could never window shop too much - perhaps there was something just perfect that she'd missed in all her prior trips. There had already been more flowers than she cared to look at and color choices and...she had no idea how much went in to planning a wedding! If they were going to manage to pull it together in the next week or two then she was going to need some serious help. Could you find a wedding planner in Elysium? That sounded too good to be true. She'd promised not to drag Zane into the middle of this madness and she was going to hold to that.

Of course she had to pay a little visit to the art supply store - not that there was anything they had that she didn't, but it never hurt to look. Amada swung by a few more shops but there wasn't truly anything that caught her interest. She was worried about being able to pull this all together - had she bitten off more than she could chew this time around? She didn't want to let Zane down, she refused when it came to something as important as their wedding. This day was going to be the first in their lifetime together! She couldn't afford to mess this up. Maybe what she needed was a cup of coffee...to just sit down and try to clear her head. Then she could go from there.

Crossing the little square, she headed for the cafe and for an open table that she could see. Amada paused long enough to order a cup of coffee before she went to sit, nearly running someone down in the process. Stepping back quickly to avoid dumping coffee on the other person, she couldn't apologize quickly enough, "Oh...I'm so sorry! I should have been watching where I was heading...a bit lost in my thoughts."

Who: Adio and Freya
When: Mid Afternoon (lol much better)
Where: Ceramics/Market
What: Adio checks out da ceramics

Sanura was the type to get drunk just by smelling something tainted with alcohol, her small frame not able to handle much. So, she was far in hangover land and throwing things at her brother demanding he get things at the Market. Adio should have gotten trashed so it was vise-versa. But he doubted he would have been throwing a fit because their was no junk food left. Plus, he wasn't too much of a drinker.

But he supposed drawing the short straw so to say was a good thing. Adio needed to somewhat explore the market a bit. He really only tended to one shop at a time. He would maybe go to the bakery, then head home. He figured since Sanura fell deep back into sleep by the time he left, today would be a good day to explore all sorts of shops. Then he would get her junk food to shut her up.

He took mental note that the sweets shop was near the ceramics shop. Ceramics struck a cord as interesting. It was terribly convenient as well since the ceramics shop was tucked behind the sweets shops.

As he entered the shop, he didn't see anyone immediately, but he heard distant noises. To make sure he wasn't intruding (even thought it was a shop, he was just over formal like that) he spoke up after only a few footsteps inside.

"He-Hello?"
