[Event Post] Halloween Haunted Hotel Party at the Equinox

[duelacademynpcs]

::Welcome, welcome to the costume party at the Equinox, which has a quasi Victorian air to it.

The party is located in the front foyer and the main garden grounds of the hotel, with tables of food and drink prepared, and plenty of conversation pieces. People are wandering about in costumes both elaborate and simple.

There's plenty of merry making, you should all gladly talk to one another, but if you're feeling risky, maybe venture into the closed Western Wing of the hotel that is under renovation.

If you're wondering who could afford to rent out the hotel for this nighttime event, it appears to be a group called the Tannhauser Society, which if you look it up, seems to be some generic something or other NGO or Charitable organization.

In the back of the Foyer is a Romanticism style painting of a red-haired maiden in armor with what appears to be Celeb Blade - Death Wild, leading a revolutionary pose. It adds to the antiquity of the building tonight, which adds a bit of a chill.

Otherwise there's general pumpkins, skeletons, bats, cauldrons and the like to add to the Halloween atmosphere.

The host is a cloaked figure with the name tag "Sister Fingers". Probably an elaborate costume.

But feel free to interact, nothing strange will happen tonight.::

I want a moment so ecstatic, so impressing, so wonderous, it becomes eternity itself. It might be a contradiction but I want something utterly beautiful.

Ah~~

::Gasping to herself.::

[knowinginthedark]

Hnmm, I just wonder...

From your perspective, what would that "moment" be like?

[wintyrwunderlande]

... A vision of the end of the world, as ridiculous as that sounds.

[knowinginthedark]

Is that really ridiculous, though?

It's certainly be the definition of "ephemeral", as long as you're talking about the moment that it happens.

Obviously, the aftermath isn't ephemeral at all!

[wintyrwunderlande]

Exactly, but the look of terror as the world falls to pieces, sounds... so wonderful!

[knowinginthedark]

Have you achieved anything in your artwork even close to that, then? Or is it still a "work in progress" thing for you?

*he is. completely unbothered by the topic.*

[wintyrwunderlande]

::Her expression sours lightly.::

Work in progress. Only got back on the bandwagon recently.

[knowinginthedark]

Oh, that's a shame. But I guess true art takes time and the right mindset, yes?

[wintyrwunderlande]

::Nods.::

And I'm honestly an amateur, and just getting the hang of things.

[knowinginthedark]

Well, that isn't anything to get discouraged about.

All forms of "art" take time and patience to master. Even I didn't get "good" at what I do without years of trial and error!

[wintyrwunderlande]

That's a positive way of looking at it! Just gotta keep a positive mindset and keep banging away at it!

::Smiles.::

[knowinginthedark]

Exactly! Never let the little things discourage you from your passions!

I hope that one day, I can ask you how it's going, and you'll be able to show me your sculpture.

[wintyrwunderlande]

Gladly!

::Business card or smartphone contact.::

*business cards are fine. He's got one to exchange with!

He's a historical consultant. Officially.*

How curious.::

[knowinginthedark]

*Oooh, a witch.

This definitely won't cause issues later for him! But his card is very particular. Satou Tarou, Historical Consultant, Professional Mythologist and Cryptozoologist. And an e-mail address.

He enjoys the weirder things in life.*
