EVENT: Iksay Harvest Festival

[1000_npcs]

The day of the Harvest Festival has fallen upon Iksay, and the atmosphere has never felt more cheery for such an early noon. As one would expect of the traditional festival, extensive preparations have been made, and it's the first time in a long while that anyone has seen Iksay brimming with such energy ever since it got raided in that fateful surprise attack.

Upon entering the small village, one would immediately notice the colourful decorations, as well as the banquet in the town center. The sound of upbeat music can be heard louder with each step taken towards the festivities. The townspeople are friendly to outsiders, but watch out, you might get whisked away in an impromptu dance -- traditional Iksay folk dancers are known to swap partners on several occasions mid-song!

Well. Then you had better not die, for the sake of that person, then.

[aloof_savant]

I'm not turning immortal!

In any case, it's a pleasure to meet you for real, Lady Sierra. Somehow knowing these details about you makes you seem... less weird than before?

[novilunium]

....... Weird...?

[aloof_savant]

You have to admit, there's nothing normal about a seemingly young girl calling another young man "little boy". Physically I kind of look older than you... right?

[novilunium]

... I suppose you have a point.

But now we shall have no problems, shall we? Perhaps this means we can even eat together guilt-free.

[aloof_savant]

Guilt-free? Wh-what is this...

That's kind of you to offer, Lady Sierra, but I believe I am spoken for.

[novilunium]

Oh? I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem. It would only be a little bit of blood... Oh, it's been so long...

[aloof_savant]

Can I interest you in some freshly picked fruit?

[novilunium]

How unsatisfying.

I suppose I will just have to find a willing citizen of your castle, then.

[aloof_savant]

Th-this is so messed up..!

As long as they're "willing"! Do you really need to feed on that stuff?

[novilunium]

Does anybody really need to do anything?

One day you may find yourself begging for me to feast upon your life-force when trouble comes. I will wait patiently.

[aloof_savant]

Why would I ever want that at a time of distress?
