RING IN THE NEW YEAR

[fenstaff]

Time is a lie, which is why when your character wakes up, there are flyers from under their door and on the bulletin boards announcing the New Year's Eve Celebration tonight. The hotel is decked out for the celebration too, in golds and silvers. However, whenever you question the staff about the year we're going into, you never get a solid answer. All they'll say is that they hope you'll enjoy the celebration tonight.

I. BONFIRE NIGHTS

There's a bonfire currently roaring, with singing and dancing, teenage boys and girls in Viking-inspired costumes (yes, even for the New Year!), and of course, free-flowing booze and lots of good food. The mead is particularly popular, for it's not only really delicious, it's also extremely potent, able to get even the broodiest of brooders loosening up and those normally unaffected by alcohol inebriated.

The bonfire won't just die at Midnight - it'll continue burning long through the night until the last person around it finally heads back to their room. Though if you're around the bonfire as the clock strikes Midnight, there'll be a large crack and lots of fire sparks lifting up into the sky like fireflies that spread out. Don't worry though, they don't seem to come down, and it's almost like this is their fireworks show!

II. POOL PARTY FUN

It's not just outside, where it is snowy and cold if you're not near the bonfire that's celebratory. The Pool Area is decked out for the celebration as well. With pool floaties that look like little time watches, like father time's clock, to lazy about in. Just like outside, the mead and food are on tables against one corner of the room so feel free to stay inside and enjoy the warm and water instead as you ring in the new year.

At Midnight, while the fire is giving off its own spark firework-eques show, the pool room lights dim and the lights in the pool will do a quick light show over the first five minutes of the New Year. So definitely float on and enjoy the show!

III. WILDCARD

Want to skip the loudness of the festivities, you're more than welcome to find your own fun in the hotel, quiet or loud. Over all, the spirit is festive, the gods are quiet, and people are just enjoying themselves. So have fun however you'd like to ring in the new year!
