Seasonal Event: Oktoberfest

WHO: You
WHEN: October/November
WHAT: It’s that time of year, Fall is in the air, the trees are changing, and Gazin is celebrating Harvest! Below you will find celebrations and prompts for your consideration.
WHERE: Gazin
WARNINGS: None

Catfe Gerdri
A small cafe opened its doors onto its friendly little street. Inside it was selling hot drinks with funny names to make its clientele laugh for the season. There were pumpkin drinks and apple drinks, drinks made with coffee, drinks made with tea but the real draw was its cats. There were cats of all sizes and all needed to be pet and loved on. They were even autumn colours; creams and whites, gingers and deep browns. Some of them were up for adoption and had little red collars on with little golden bells. They looked fancy and neat and ready to travel.

In the cool autumn air, come in for a hot drink, meet fellow travellers, and stay for the fabulous company of Mrs Gerdri’s cats. If you’re looking for a job, the cat lady herself is hiring! Must love cats.

Harvest Festival
Gather around! It’s that time of year of harvest and merriment that no other season can do just right! It’s the Harvest Festival in Gazin, of course! There’s games and prizes to be won, music and laughter, magic to be seen, and all sorts of harvest foods to be had. Try some cake, have some bread, make something magical for a friend!

Whatever you choose, leave room for dancing because Gazin sure goes all out with spectacle and music and their finest of beers. There’s something for everyone at the Harvest Festival, which will run for six weeks before it’s done.

Gazin’s Shield Day
Lan Wangji, Wei Wuxian, Xue Yang, Wen Kexing, Zhou Zishu, Merlan O’Keefe and many other locals have been busy for quite some time working on a citywide shielding project for Gazin. On this day, they’re making it official with the revealing of the project in its final state. It’s enough of an accomplishment that it’s become a bonafide celebration in itself. There will be a magic fireworks display as well as festivities. With so many talented magic users in on this feat, its success is assured.

Monsters beware, Gazin is now officially protected!

Kexing wanders over, fan absently wafting as he studies the energies. The quiet question has him hum.

"There will always be the possibility of an attack. This way, we're ready for it. The wall is lovely, but not very strong."

Wangji's expression softens slightly.

"Mn. Did you encounter powerful beasts on the way out or back?"

That makes him grin a little, glancing over. "Nothing we couldn't avoid. My A-Xu has a soft heart. He'd rather avoid unprovoked attacks." Of course Zishu might say the same about him instead.

That doesn't quite answer the question, since what two cultivators can avoid and what residents of the town can avoid are two very different things, but - well, that is why the shield is up, anyway.

"Mn. For most, safer to avoid fighting."

Most. He might have enough observation about Wen Kexing and his husband and avoiding fights is not necessarily their preference, but that is all right. They were, after all, in somewhat of a hurry on the way up.

Some habits die hard. Such as not fully answering questions from people. He even does it with his A-Xu, sometimes. More to tease, in those cases now. But he still does it. Baiting his husband and then delighting in the fight that comes hand in hand with it.

The fan waves, briefly obscuring his lower face.

"Has there been much trouble over the past few months?"

Wangji doesn't begrudge incomplete answers, unless they put someone he cares about in danger. He hums.

"Not much. It is... mostly calm." That doesn't necessarily last.

"Safety is important, so this is good. I was merely wondering."
