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!

There's one thing we have in common. Being able to travel about freely is a luxury I don't think I could part with.

See? And they call settling down the "simple life", but to me, there's nothing more simple than this!

[ The music slowly quiets down again while the musicians catch a break and all the dancers disperse until the next round. ]

Well, I suppose that concludes our little tryst.

It seems so. I enjoyed myself. You're quite the dancer, Mr. Mercenary Captain. [Gives him an appreciative peck on the cheek and slight curtsey.] I hope we can do it again sometime.

[ Although he's no stranger to kisses, getting one from a goddess like Jeane is enough for him to perk up like a schoolboy. ]

G'aw, shucks, Miss Rune Sage, don't go puttin' any spells on me now!
