Fallen Heroes Carnival

Add to Memories Tell a Friend



Who: The Citizens of Wonderland
When: Thursday
Where: Non'ame Town Square
What: Masquerade Carnival
Subject Lines: [Place, Who's there, Rating]

The end of the Queen Celebrations had finally come. The sun had warmed the town in a marvelous way allowing costumes of all kinds to be worn. The entire town gathered in the Town Square for the final Masquerade Carnival. Various game booths spotted the streets as well as vendors that commonly appeared in the open market. Store fronts kept their doors propped open allowing the cool air to move as freely as they expected the people to. Sure the Queen said that businesses should be closed down and moved to where the festivities were, but if they were already there why move? Colours, designs and fabrics draped the area in recognition of the Fallen Heroes from the war. The Carnival was to appease the public, even though everyone knew the Queen only cared about herself.

Behind the festival several plans were brewing. The Queen's men waited amongst the Carnival festivities keeping their eyes open for Oysters. The Queen had many whims but few involved letting annoyances go. Gathering them all in one place made her game easier. The people of the Rebellion had been sent messages by a courier to make their attempts to keep the Oysters hidden as playful as possible so that they may blend in to the crowd and not look out of place. Being amongst the Carnival was a good morale boost to the Rebels if they didn't need to stress over being killed.

People of Non'ame came in costumes and masks of all different shapes, sizes and colours. Many used the Diamond Specials at the hair and makeup boutiques to look even more colourful.

Let the Games Begin

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
The entire Wonderland was in celebration or so the Hearts would like to believe. The town of Non'ame brightly decorated in arrangements of red roses, red ribbons braided into long running ropes draping every which way, and small statues of broken chess pieces placed amongst the streets. Larger broken statues were set up to look like they were being over come by the red roses.



The 200th anniversary of the Queen taking the throne (again) had begun, and the festivities were to last a week, maybe two. It hadn't been decided yet.

The rebels are told by the messengers of the Caterpillar to keep their heads down, but that likely won't stop the few that fought in the war nor the more anxious rebels. And, of course, the Tea House will be getting into their normal shenanigans in celebration while the unaligned are left to react.
