Floating Away at the Fantasy Faire

The sun was setting. She had watched it fall countless times, she had no idea the number of suns which had dipped into the horizon, how many more she had missed, attention snared and hooked, this way and that with the other things.

As twilight filtered into the world like so much magical smoke, the junction called, as it always would.

No chill yet assaulted the air, a welcome gentle coolness eased through the Junction leaving the generous warmth of the long days to carry the fluffy bumbling insects from flower to flower. Settling into the ancient wooden craft, its scent of the ages, of souls whose joy it had carried raised a smile on her lips, even as the gentle creaking signaled its departure from the shore, carrying her away once more. She would return, they all would. All the love and the beauty of the world made them, and they would carry on, making the world better.

What a Fantasy Faire!

Life is so busy that it feels like it's a memory already but it's not! It's still here! One day more as they sing. I've not been able to spend the time I'd want, but I sure have spent those coins. Go and do the same. Love the beautiful SIMS, support the amazing cause. Help kick cancer out of everyones lives forever. 

All items are 100% Relay for Life donations.

Fantasy Faire 2017 - Addio Venexia

She knew that pleading for her husband was in vain, even dangerous. The Council of Ten was appointed to watch over the security of the Most Serene Republic, and they took their job seriously. Her husband might have been a Tiepolo, descendant of noblemen, but the Council could overthrow even a Doge, and they sent her husband to exile for treason. Marina Barbarigo de Morosini knew she would never walk with him in Piazza San Marco ever again... yet every evening, when the shadows descended upon the lion statues and the Campanile, she lit a lantern and walked to the seashore. Maybe her husband’s eyes could pierce the darkness and the mists, and see the light that Marina faithfully lit for him in the Venetian twilight.

Fantasy Faire item:

Gown: „From the ashes comes life: Brigid” by Beyond Persuasion / Enrapturing Elegance Couture – 449 L$.

Another splendid and delicate outfit by Elizabet Skyward (Savira) that absolutely deserves your attention! She is one of the great discoveries of this year’s Fantasy Faire for me, with her caringly designed gowns and with her attention to small yet very important details. “Brigid” is also a RFL donation item, and you can find her and her equally lovely sisters in The Fallen Sands sim. This softly floating fitted mesh gown comes with a set of adjustable wings and an adjustable headpiece, not shown here.

Other items:

Head: Catwa Kimberly.

Body: Maitreya Lara.

Bracers: “Quala Bracers” in Gold by Luas – gacha prize (rare) available in the shop, 50 $ per play.

Halo: “Angelic Halo” in Copper by Acios – 99 L$. Previously a FF item, now the halo is available at the main shop of Acios in various colours. Acios is also present at this year’s Faire; you find the shop in The Fallen Sands.

Hair: „Hilda” in Burgundy by Bliss Hair – not available any more. It is a true pity that Amutey DeCuir has left SL and closed her Marketplace shop as well...

Lantern: „Plain” Lantern by Remarkable Oblivion – gacha prize (common) available in the shop, 100 $ per play.

Pose: “Subtle 1” by HelaMiyo – 300 L$. The collection of five delicate and expressive “Subtle” poses (plus their mirrors) is a Pose Fair exclusive by Miyoko Magic. It’s quackalicious, Miyoko! :-)

The picture was made at The Rose, the sim Alia Baroque built for this year's Fantasy Faire.. if the Faire is a dream, then this land is a dream within a dream. Visit it before it is too late and the Fairelands fade away in the mists....

Fantasy Faire 2017 - DragonFish

Dragons live in the sky. Mermaids live in the water. Everybody knew that in the Land of Infinite Magic... except for Chilrideoss The Brave, a majestic green dragon, and Muirgheal, a dreamy mermaid with the loveliest purple scales ever seen in the deep quiet waters of the Land of Infinite Magic.

One day Chilrideoss The Brave felt very thirsty (spitting fire for an entire day easily dries the throat of even the most heroic dragon, you know...) and he descended from the skies to the seashore. Dragons can drink saltwater; actually it is their preferred thirst quencher, as salt makes their skin thicker and shinier. Muirgheal was playing in the shallow water exactly at the time Chilrideoss arrived.

The rest is history in the Land of Infinite Magic. Love at first sight between two very different creatures with lovely scales, a secret wedding, and the birth of a little girl, majestically green and silkily purple, the proof that sometimes love indeed conquers all.

IMPORTANT! FANTASY FAIRE IS PROLONGED! You may visit the sims and spend your Lindens until the 4^th of May!

Fantasy Faire items:

Green top with collar: “Dragonborne” by Vengeful Threads - 449 L$. Vixn Dagger already stunned me at last year’s Faire with her Ancient Egyptian gown “Anubis Bride”, and she didn’t disappoint this year either... ”Dragonborne” is a vivid green outfit made of smartly combined mesh and Omega parts with spectacular detailing; a must have for a spunky and defiant dragonesse! Vengeful Threads isat The Rose, and the shop is more than worth visiting, also because there you can find many other recent works by Vixn including some dramatic makeup sets.

Crown/mask: “Masks of Decadence: The Pietist” in Emerald by VengefulThreads – RFL Donation Gacha, 50 L$ per play (16 commons, 3 rare) at The Rose. You have the chance to win two other masks, “Phantom” and “Wyvern”, both harsh and beautiful, in various colours.

Lipstick: “Gaia” by Vengeful Threads – 99 L$, that comes with a beautiful leafy eye makeup I’m not showing here. The makeup set is also available in Vixn’s shop at The Rose.

Horns: “Aleh Horns” Pierced Style by :Soul: - 199 L$. These wonderful and elaborated horns (better to say an entire system of carefully composed horns...) are also a RFL donation item, a steal deal, as you will get horns in two styles with a texture HUD and including 14 ring textures, and they are also resize scripted. Charlie’s (Lerochelle Destiny) shop is in Mudrana... check out his dramatic and very beautiful skins too!

Mermaid tail: “Dawne” by Living the FantaSea - 75 L$. This elegant mermaid tail is also a RFL donation item, so it’s high time you grew some fins! The shop is close to Charlie's in Mudrana.

Hair: “Petula” by Analog Dog. All right, I’m cheating a bit with this hairdo, as it was last year’s FF item... but the “Merida” tresses offered by Queue at this year’s Faire are equally beautiful - 375 L$. Visit Queue at The Hill!

Skin: “Opal” Black Brows by 7 Deadly S(K)ins – 299 L$. “Opal” is a beautiful pearly white skin; you can choose from four packages with different eyebrow tones in the shop of Izara Zuta at San Mora, and they are also a RFL donation item, so again... your money is spent really well!

It’s free to join the group, and you receive more than a dozen amazing avatars with your membership, so hop over to Alpha Tribe Island for some more lovelies to have! Alpha Tribe is also at the Fantasy Faire, in The Rose sim.

Pose: "Mermaid" by Mysterika - 25 L$ from the marketplace.
