The harp that calls you to the arena this evening is sharp, and firm, crying out clearly to certain teams.

I wonder...

Where: Arena
When: Late afternoon, day 155
What: Game

The sound of harp chords calls out to certain teams. As dramatic as ever, this time they bring a certain sound of brightness with them.

The arena has been transformed, walls shrouded by thin tent walls, and floors covered with carpets instead of sand. Veiled sits on the throne with a scroll in her lap: around her feet are seven tables, low, with pillows surrounding them.

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 117, evening
What: The going-away party of Gaius Octavian

[Today in the arena, a very particular Call was given out, heard by any outside, and those inside who might have been listening.. It is a strange octave, almost regal, with the deep sound of brass horns and cadence of drums. As one gets closer, they might hear something a bit like winds, but of a strange harmony that doesn't match any instrument a Blank may have remembered. Strings on a slightly different chord and pitch, the range dancing at a joyous counterpoint to the solemn, majestic trumpets.

Those who have heard, one in particular, and all those following the unique sound, will find the Arena unusually appointed. Banners of all teams colors stretch overhead, red taking the pinnacle spot.

Without the trappings of a game, what seems to be laid out is a long table, a multitude of chairs and covered plates sitting upon table cloth of Pyxis red and Cygnus pink. The music seems to come from all around, and the general area before the tables seems to be open, inviting for those inclined to dance. There is a less austere table, far to the back, which seems to have simple snacks, one single platter of fruit, and some juices and wines.

In the throne, presiding over it all is the statue of the King, expression thoughtful as it overlooks the festivities.]

Who: ever.
Where: The arena.
When: Day 117, midafternoon
What: Game 79.

A soft whispery flute sounds throughout Sabra, signaling blanks to the arena. As you enter the Arena, a possibly familiar scent reaches your nose as you step onto the carpets and your palms tingle. You feel…different.

Today, Veiled sits on the throne silently. In her lap is not any musical instrument, but a deck of cards. If you look closely at the background, a net of gold decorates it, but with a roiling undertone…

[Familiar butterflies lead the way to the arena, which is coated with a fresh, lush layer of grass, as it tends to be when Beauty is in the house.

Before the throne are several small marble tables, meant to be used by sitting on the ground. There is one for each team, and on each table is a small stack of cards laid face down. For now, they are all blank.]


Good morning, everyone. Please take a seat, we will be playing a variation of one of Messenger's favorite games today. Talk among yourselves, and we will begin shortly.

What:

Though some of you may not want or be capable of sleep--somehow, last night, you arranged yourself upon your beds, made yourselves comfortable, and eventually, slipped off into sleep. In your last few moments of consciousness, you felt like you might have heard the faint sound of a harp...

...when you wake, there is a feeling as if you have gone on a great journey. You are no longer in your unit room. Instead, you are in a tent made of gauze and tapestries, as far as the eye can see. Each unit wakes in their own room. Each room is on a hallway with a few empty rooms in it. The halls all lead to one place: something that looks very much like the arena. In the middle, there is a large brazier that holds several pieces of incense, several cushions, and three more people. And, of course, the Judge on the throne, who holds a harp in her lap.

"Be seated, Blanks."
